Are you a long range shooter of a bush hunter?

I have hunted the bush there a bit and been quite successful years past. Also found the odd stag out in the tussock but that was more early March pre-roar feeding... I think you will do better in the bush in December with maybe catching the odd one out on the edges early or late evening.
For open hunting I would be trying South of the hut keeping to the true right - there is a few guts that head back up into the bush with come out on the easterly faces towards TeMatia Stream, especially early mornings.
For Bush hunting I would head back on the track to Oamaru Hut and once in the bush (Waitawhero saddle)hunt the first ridge south towards Purungetungetu stream or heads or north depending on wind - (I had good success going south and north)
