Thread: Ti tiringa or pukehuia hunting blocks

Anyone hunting these? Not sure which one I'm going to, but it'll be one of them. Any good spots to setup and glass from for the day ? T.i.a. any tips on hunting any of these ?

All bush hunting those two blocks. Plenty of better blocks around if you are wanting to sit around all day and glass.

Spent plenty of time in both, pre-fly in days.


What @Huntn says is correct. Its pretty gentle country so relatively easy to get around, but all bush hunting.

All bush hunting.

Buggar, any of them better or worse? Wouldn't mind utilizing my thermal binos for spotting.

Get in the bush that's what real hunters do.

Trust me, done that lol first 1000 odd hunts were bush, much prefer the lazier way. Hahaha but If I can only go bush, the I'll only go bush

The other question is .... 7mm saum, mid to long range not super light around 4.1kg, or the 338 whisper, 350m max shots 3.8kg easy to carry etc.
