Thread: Central Otago hunting

There are DOC hunting blocks in the area and permits can be obtained online. Private land is not normally available to casual shooters. There are ranges in the area but are all confined to club members. Hunting in the area over Christmas must be done with extreme care as there are many non-shooting users of the DOC blocks (4wd trippers, gold history buffs, trampers, horse trekkers, etc. who don't need permits to be there). Private land would be your safest option but it is probably too late to organise as personal visits are a must so the land owners can get a feel for your attitude and aptitude.
