The extra pain relief must be working then. Get your son to carry the heavy bits GA, you shouldn’t be over doing it.

That is your opinion.......Others have differing opinions and as we respect yours, you must respect theirs.

Here are just two differing opinions from the same sector

"Eastern Bay of plenty iwi Tūhoe has banned hunting in Te Urewera regardless of what the government decides, saying it is concerned an influx of hunters could see accidents or transmission of the virus into the community.
About 2000 hunters descend on the mountain park at this time of year during the roar season.
But Iwi Chairs Pandemic Response spokesperson Mike Smith said whānau who relied on hunting to put food on the table should be given some leniency."

Now i give you my opinion. If access is made available to those wanting food but not to those "wanting blow off a bit of ammunition and kill a few things" I am certain that every man and his dog would claim they were hunting for food...........which is probably true now and therefor the status quo should remain. The fickle media should ignore the blowhards and not give their blustering any publicity.

Absolutely and I'm not asking his opinion be removed etc. Just expressing mine that I think someone who holds that opinion is ignorant, arrogant or just a dick. That's the good thing about forums hey - diversity of opinion and free debate

And yeah I'm inclined to agree with your view that any rules/restrictions imposed are a recipe for interpretation, confusion and a real pain in the ass for any poor bugger who has to try and enforce them.

What I've learnt from this thread is that China has manufactured COVID 19 and intentionally spread it to to New Zealand to target Kiwi hunters and stop them from hunting.

Informative.

https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/hea...hunting-lifted

A ban on hunting under Covid-19 alert level 3 has been lifted.

Hunters will be able to hunt on private land with special restrictions when New Zealand moves to Covid-19 Alert Level 3, but not on public conservation land.

The ban was described as an "error" by the finance minister, as the Government came under pressure to allow the activity.

Hunting had been deemed risky and was banned under the lockdown, and according to Government advice issued last week, the outdoor activity would remain banned.

Yes. And while we can (and mostly do) respect the right for someone to have an opinion we do not have to respect their expressed values.

Just out of interest, I would be keen to know what makes this so urgent that it cant wait a few more days? Are rabbits hares or goats eating seedling pines?

Not that I really give a rats arse about your opinion. Having my son with me to look after me as I do it, I’m terminally ill and need supervision from a safety perspective. Only time he can come to visit. As well as do some work here and give my wife a rest. Good reason for you PC Plod. Numbers have built up and stock management is being revised. I could carry on and lecture you about emergency management, but then nah.

If that is all you have learned, you need to find a better teacher.

Yep, that is exactly the point of my post. Well spotted!

Nah just a bit of a piss take to all the grumpies on here with their wild theories hehe.

On another note, private land only? Well that rules out my kaimanawa plans.

STILL no approval to sight in at your local range.

COLFO warns and is pursuing yet another oversight or mistake .

"There is still one gaping hole though – and that is the status of ranges. I know that many hunters will need to head down to a range to sight in their firearms before they can safely head out. Their status is still unclear, so we’ll keep plugging away at that and keep you updated.

I will put my hand up on this one and say I am sorry mate. I had not made the connection or joined the dots. Mght have to read some more posts back further. Was merely reacting to so much of what I hear regarding whinging and moaning from people who don't actually need to be pushing boundaries. I sincerely wish you and your family all the best. Cheers
