Thread: Spot x

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?

I live at Cambridge.
Isn't deer stalkers club for people who want to shoot with guns?
I am looking at a tracks and walk brochures for Kaimai.
Am I suppose to go Mangakino pack, and Crimson thread track where it is not specified in brochure for people to go?
Oh well I will just go and see it myself!
That will be the best start.

Kaimais are the good place to bow hunt for deer. Get a map and a compass , find a spot that suits you and get too know it.
You will find sign as soon as you leave the tracks , but take it slow , don't go too far till your used too following the compass back too where you started. The north south track is a good place for a beginner too start out , but leave your self plenty of daylight too get out and if your in a hurry slow down , ITS FASTER IN THE THICK STUFF IF YOU GO ABIT SLOWER.
All the deer ive shot up there were well within range of a well placed arrow .
Good luck .

@GNAR. I have sent you a private message.

If your in Cambridge try going in off the kaimai summit (N S track ) or off old kaimai road .

cant beat WAMs either http://wams.org.nz/wams_desktop/index.aspx

Thank you everyone for all your positive and help feed backs. These will help me so much.
Mohawk I will try the track!
I am not used to these topo maps so I will have to look at it for ages to fully understand where and how to go.
I will probably print it and take it with me.
I almost forgot about compass! Thank you for reminding me

Take care and good luck
