Thread: Te miro and te papui

Thank you all, sounds like I should go for a few walks through there getting a feeling for the land and were the deer are.
Sounds like they are in low numbers
Just for curiously have any of you guy gotten or know someone that's got a deer in of those blocks?

And just some visuals so you know what you're up against...have fun!

Hi Htown,

Hunting in Te Miro is now closed according to Kim from DOC (Te Rapa office who administers the restricted permit) due to possum poisoning activities (bait stations) that have just gone in there, or about to in the next week. Hence you won't now be able to get a restricted permit for the Blocks at Te Miro for the rest of the restricted season i.e end of the Roar Balloted access until the end of October. It's then closed for fawning through til the Roar ballots come up for Hunting. I for one will be applying for a ballot for this nice little piece of bush for the roar in October. As they say low animal numbers but a real nice piece of bush to learn in before you hit the Kaimai's and hone your craft, and after 6 months + of no pressure the roar in there could be good as a lead off and hone of skills before hitting the Kaimai's.

Te Tapui is still open on restricted Permit managed out of the DOC office in TeRapa. I've got a full hunt party (3) for This month (August) going in there on our allotted dates in block A but if you want to tag along I'm sure I could walk you through it in September if you wanted??

PM me if interested or you need more information.
