Thread: first weekend in may

So I'm hoping everyones gonna be duck shooting? So I will have nice quiet bush to walk around in without bumping into anyone

Ha youll be lucky

Still be busy the 1st weekend in May duck shooting is the 1st Saturday in May I always take the rifle and go for a stalk too.

I just take some buckshot to the duckpond, bugger this walking business!

And heres me thinkin Clements might be like my own private block for that weekend....... might give it a burl anyway.... or the kaimais for a change

Yes if your on the Waikato side you can look down on the Waihou river and listen to the Salvos of shotgunners trying to hit them

So the deer will be desensitised and just milling around asking to be harvested?

I find duck shooting opening weekend about right for a trip after chamois, bucks are hopping around sniffin out anything that moves.

I've had some real fun with buck chamois at the beginning of their rut. Had one follow me all the way up a stream no more than 25m away, just kept me company. Wearing dark clothing helps, or a black dog is a real winner to get them in.

They'll do in a pinch. Heard Chamois aren't toooo fussy during the rut
