Thread: Goats, Wairarapa. Tips please.

Hi, I'm visiting family in the Wairarapa over Christmas. I grew up here in the countryside, but haven't lived here for about 20 yrs. I have young sons and a teenage nephew dead keen on hunting and am keen to get them onto some wild goats. However, all my old private land haunts have different contacts since I last hunted here as a young guy. I used to chase them in the Mangatarere Valley and also near Mt Bruce. Can anyone point me in the right direction via private message? I simply don't have the time to do a lot of door knocking and cold calling as we're here on holiday. We have roots here, my parents are locals, farming folk and all that, just haven't got the right contacts for goats. Ideally a friendly landowner who would appreciate help getting rid of goats, or accessible public land. We're based in the wider Carterton area. I grew up on farms, so understand respectful farming etiquette, close gates, leave stock alone etc, and won't leave goat carcasses all over the place etc. Any pointers appreciated. 👍
