Thread: hunting in the Hapuakohe and kaimai ranges?

hi all, daniel here im a new memeber.

Im in orini waikato, looking at doing some hunting on DOC land. Dont know the area very well, iv been hunting since i could hold a gun, but all of this has been done in the pines in the EBOP. since iv been in the waikato farming (7 years now). i havent found anywhere suitable to hunt. iv got a permit from doc to hunt kaimai's and Hapuakohe Range, as the Hapuakohe is just of tahuna road, about 15mins from home. Dont know the area so was wanting to know if anyone has hunted there and where you can get good access into it? Also i have heard about thompsons track, appparently can be successful. how far do you need to travel in to get to good hunting. as i know there a alot of 4wd'ing dickheads around there that munt up the tracks.

Any help would be great thanks
dan
