@NewbieZAR OK. I've PM'd you some ideas about where to go. Maybe I will hear back about how you get on.

Was in Clements on fri night/sat morning,spooked 4,all in the lower areas,lots of wind and pretty wet,funny though,none squealed at me which seemed unusual,2 I only got a quick glimpse of as they departed ,the other 2 were on the run and no chance of a shot,they weren’t hanging around but I find that a lot when hunting in the wind,the Sika seem a lot more on edge.

There are chased pretty much every weekend on clement mill, no wonder they are on the edge :-)

I was in the Waipakihi a week ago for a couple of days. Saw 3 hinds bush stalking, all at about 1100m.

Yeah, it’s pretty cold for them down towards the river this time of the year.
