    Best thing would be to put your boots on, and go have a look for yourself like the rest of us have.
    Doc website will show you where you can and cannot hunt.

    Spent a lot of time in that part of the country from Dunedin to Haast shooting hundreds of deer with a 223 in my teens and early 20’s.

    The best Knowlage is time in the hills doing the hard yards.

    Here’s some places I used to go in just to name a few,
    Silver Peaks
    Waipori falls
    Blue mountains
    Waikaia
    Remakables
    Old man range
    Eyre mountains
    Livingstone range
    Mary’s range

    Nice first post.

    Search the DoC website. It has everything you need to know there to make a start. Otago has heaps of public land blocks to hunt which most are easily accessed.

    Look forward to your contributions to the forum

    I'm drawn to the mountains and the bush, it's where life is clear, where the world makes the most sense.

    It’s Friday, it’s been a while, is this another of Tussock’s alter egos looking to stir us up ha ha... because apparently all we are good for is his trolling.
