Thread: Molesworth Roar 2020

To be frank what rips my tweeds is the huge area that is Molesworth and IMO not enough is offered during the roar in particular. This is publicly owned land. Ours. I have sat on the boundary of my block several times and watched and heard stags in adjoining blocks that were not included in the ballot and there were no stock grazing there. I know the farm manager cant be a total Chrystal ball gazer with regard to what he needs but really? What also rubs salt in to the wound is to meet friends and family of the farm manager who have travelled to and been there hunting in all the spots not opened to the public. There is very little of that type of stuff left happening in NZ now. I get that farm staff should have privileges but not so much all the hangers on. And what about some high level landing sites that people can fly in to during the winter when the road is closed? I fully understand and sympathize with the issues for farm staff around running an operation in a public domain but I think the balance might not be completely right here?
