they are very thin on the ground in south canterbury LOL

Plenty in the Wairarapa bush. Problem is in some places the cunning sods hang out close to the DOC tracks. Wish I had a .223 though, feeding the 6.5CM quality rounds is expensive

Identify your target beyond all doubt because you never miss (right?) and I'll be missed.

plenty around Taranaki DOC blocks - but pays to know which ones receive regular culling efforts - some have no culling and numbers are up in those blocks

@Micky Duck Tell me about it, I haven't shot a goat in years. Few on the side of the road around cave but thats all ive see for a while.

I wonder if we might be allowed to offer up thar/chammy tails....oh and wallaby ones too. and while we are at it,how about paying a token bounty fee of say $5 per tail.....

Shoot a goat 1-200m across a gully, fight your way across through gorse to recover the tail for a chance at a prize.

I have better things to do I'm afraid.

Good luck though, to those that compete.

Planning on giving it a cack.

Might try and find a few myself to get an entry in. Last goat I shot was with a bow a couple of years ago.

Most definitely!

I would be keen if anyone up here wants a companion. Weekdays only though as I work Friday to Sunday each week.
