    What period? I have hunted most of the Haast blocks in the major rivers, as it was my back yard. My cobber has that block below 1st period I think. Franklin is alright. I never chase stags in the roar there but got a lot of meat animals there.
    Do what ya want! Ya will anyway.

    No I don't know, sorry. Most of the front country ballot blocks, get hammered with 1080, have done for years, yet they are still worth a look.
    The Franklin is quite a cruisey block. 99% of the animals will be near the flats.
    Mate found a nice head in the spasm block just below 46, 2 years ago that was killed by another stag so there is always the chance for a big boy in there.
    Do what ya want! Ya will anyway.
