Thread: Taking the Mrs Bush

I genuinely feel sorry for you North islanders.

I have been going bush for over 35 years and I reckon I could count on one hand, how many times I have bumped into other people.

God I love the wet coast.
May the sandflies get bigger and notorious weather continue😆

Yeah its scary to think its been that long as time has flown. Hope i can last as long again going bush. Good thing about the coast is, geographically it is easier to know if someone is in your intended area. Also people walk past half the good hunting thinking its better somewhere else

I thought this thread was about him shaving/waxing his missus....

Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I ended up taking her into Totara Flats in the Tararuas. She's not all that stoked coz we walked in last night and I shot a deer this morning so had to walk out again.
I'll post a report and some pics when i can be bothered.

Nice apartments at mount Maunganui, hot pools across the road, good takeaways, beach isn't bad and you can climb the mount, what else could you want, apart from a deer?

We are set up for fly camping and happy for a reasonable walk in (within reason as I will be carrying a fair bit). She will hang out around camp, read her book, sunbathe and dangle her toes in the stream (if there is a stream). I would like a reasonable chance at putting up a deer, not expecting miracles as I still haven't shot one on public land.

Given the timings, two to three nights somewhere in the North Island, where would you guys go? Key attractions would include: Picturesque scenery, a bit of privacy, decent camp site, reasonable deer numbers, not too difficult to get to (six hours of straight up hill would make her sad).

Thoughts so far include Jap creek or Kiko Rd in the Kaimanawas. Could be keen to have a look in the Tararuas or Ruahines but don't know anywhere that fits the bill - Would it be worth giving the local DOC office a bell?
Not after anyones secret pozzie but a general hint or a well known spot would be choice.

Thanks in advance,
Adam

Hahahaha yeah nice one take the mrs hunting ahahahahahah, your funny
