Thread: Public land deer - 53 years ago.

My dad used to do a lot of meat hunting in the Urewera's. Next time I go over to his place I will see if I can get some of his photos and post them on here. He has some neat ones of a pack horse team loaded to the hilt with deer carcasses going to the meat buyers.

I remember one of his stories about shooting a huge stag, which they had to drag out with a horse to a bank to load it, which when sold was more than a week's wages for him!! (I think it was over 250lb, but cant quite remember the weight)
