    Here is the general area
    Name: image.jpg Views: 336 Size: 512.2 KB

    Find the features 731 and 732 in the upper lefthand corner (NW corner) and then locate the right hand fork of the plateau in the middle between the two features. That is where we will be camping.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    And you see that spot left of there, if you hold your tongue just right? Yip? Good, STAY AWAY from there
    Actually its a good spot early spring, and mid autumn, its one of the old crossings for deer when they used to move from the forest back into the bush.

    Sorry.
    Guys you REALLY want to head out and find the remains of the old Rangers hut then. Just follow the horse track that starts near track 87 (Rushy will point you in the right direction), make sure they take the left fork . . .

    There you go Rushy, you won't see him till Sunday arvo.

    Hi RODSTA, like you, I am new to this caper. A word of warning: I have become obsessed with this hunting stuff, so beware, you may find 'life' tends to get in the way of hitting the hills!! Anyway, if you ever have cause to visit the Hawke's Bay, we could head out, I'm getting onto some good spots. I'm also going to be up at Waikaremoana a lot over summer, so let me know if you're intending to head that way. Lots of knowledge on this forum, by the looks, so have at it!!

    Now, this is the way to hunt the Kaimai's.
    Which is worse, ignorance or apathy...I don't know and don't care.
