What are you hoping to nab with your bow mate? Have you had a look on the doc website around the Waikato area? The Kaimais is handy enough but you would need a few bush skills first as its a bit thick and its easy to get disorientated.
Reading a couple of books on hunting wouldn't hurt either.

Deer and goats
I don't like pork so I wouldn't even shoot at them even if there are hundreds of them right infront of me.
I have done some research in the internet but I guess buying some proper hunting books will help me more.
I haven't got any bush skills so that is what I am worried about.
I will just go to kaimai on this friday or sunday and have a walk to see what it is like there.
Also I will ask for some advise from some archery club members.
Thank you Gibo for all your good responses!

Kaimai has Waitawheta River.
I might take my fly fishing gears there and fish for some trout while I look for deer signs!

One more bit of advise if i can mate, don't go off the track in the Kaimais if you don't have navigating gear or skills. We want to hear about your first success with your bow, not that you have gone missing
Start slow and start at the basics

Thanks Gibo.
I just got the permit for Kaimai.
I will be safe and I will be having fun with or without catching anything.
But I am pretty sure I will come home with some trout
I will let you know if I do catch anything or see anything.

Sounds good. Thought about joining your local deer stalkers club? What part of the Waikat ate you in?

yep i will do that
By the look of it, I think deer comes very near to the track.
I found dropping 5 meters from the track and found fresher darker looking dropping just 10 meters away.
Good signs!

Bit unnecessary mate . He was purely asking for a opinion on a book and somewhere to start not your secret spot. I don't have a problem helping guys like him out if they ask nicely and respectfully.
