    Looking for a good spot on the west coast South Island

    Hi guys, I’m potentially looking to spend up to a week on the west coast in the middle or March. Looking for recommendations for areas to potentially fly in to for 2-4 nights that holds chamois or deer.

    Any information would be appreciated cheers

    Not near as many as the mighty Waikato, and the local beer doesn’t help at all

    Dont waste your time chasing every last fps, it doesnt matter in the real world, it wont make a difference, all it will do is cause head aches and frustrations. And dont listen to silly old cunts
