As for timing wouldn't January be better , good weather & school holidays ????????.

I hope to good your a farmer and dont actually live in North Shore like your handle suggests, because it would be sad as I thought it was mainly the woke new age people that are offended on behalf of others. It comes across to me as a post by someone that doesn't like DOC or the NZDA and has more of an issue with them that what they do. As for poachers they do it anyway comp or not.

As for do it another time its a goat comp with the aim of knocking down the population they could do multiple competitions to be honest if they want a decent outcome. I see this as a net positive and while not perfect it gives an example to point to within doc if we ever need to point to validating hunting as a beneficial pass time. If you ask me shit make it a bimonthly competition.

dos,nt take much animal disturbance and we've got some very pugged up paddocks, as for vehicles, yeh nah forget about it.
If someone come knocking on my front door asking for hunt across the property I,d tell them to come back in a month or two when things have dried out abit.

Farmers can still do this anyway they dont have to let anyone on. Easy enough to say on foot only etc etc. Its up to the cockies to decide whats up.
