Alright, by what you said sir, I shall stay away from farmland. Again, just assumption, now I knew. Have nice weekend.

Cheers

Eh???
I hope you realise I wasn't actually telling you to F off, I was explaining what my response would be if I was a farmer under your scenario.
The response from most farmers would be similar, and I doubt any farmer would be inviting you back. It probably wouldn't matter anyway as you would likely have your firearms license revoked by the police.
Your scenario is a very serious situation, the penalty for discharging a firearm on land without the owners permission is up to $100,000 or 2 years jail or both, and that's without injuring or killing livestock.

Yes. I understand how serious of this scenario, and I do appreciate the situation of what I may be facing if I neglects safety responsibility. As said, I respect local culture and rules of law. May you sir will think how a grownup will ask about this? Because Gimp said there was farmer`s stock been shot by hunter, so following that I ask bit further. Just to try to learn more for the local culture.
Again, I will never do that. Even I am not big fun for GPS, but at least I know how to use compass on map, and I have all the high definition maps for every blocks I may go. printed in waterproof, stored in my backpack. Thank you and good day.

I never said anything about stock being shot until someone else bought it up...

Maybe I read wrong from your reply on Page2 for the question of why farmers blocked access. I really do `t know people will shoot farmer `s stock in NZ, poachers as far as I heard are those hunting for wild animals in private land without permission. Two of my friend in North said their block was visited regularly by pig hunters since they do `t live on the land. Neighbors told them
