Thread: Hunting around Dunedin?

My wife and I are going to be relocating to New Zealand next year and we're thinking of settling down in Dunedin. What is the hunting like down there? Looking at the DOC map it looks like there's Silverpeaks, Chalkies, Taieri Gorge and Hope Hill close to town. Are these decent spots if you're looking for deer and boar or do you typically have to drive further out? I can imagine being close to the city these locations may have a lot more competition, but I'm not really sure.
