    Do many people in NZ use tree stands ? The only time I’ve heard them mentioned is hunting Whitetail in Stewart island.

    It’s weird finding long grass in high traffic areas , I would have thought deer would eat that in preference to leaves .
    Pack out heavy

    I think a tree stand would be good in this situation, the problem at the moment is all that rain and the warmer wearher has made a ridiculous amount of growth
    When hunting think safety first

    consider flattening some grass down to make that 5mtr area bigger.....maybe???? amazing what looking from vantage spot and trimming off a couple of branches can do to increase visibility...some of us have been known to climb trees with handsaw...

    Good suggestion MD however there seems to be no vantage points.

    Im not keen on crawling on my hands and knees following the trails as the place is crawling with pigs
