Thread: Taking Jo for a Hunt

Good shit Neckshot

Very

Is there a track from the car park into the Rokai now?
When I was a young chap I was befriended by the people who had the farm prior to the Timmins. Can’t think of their sir name, but it was 1967. Their son Murray was with NZFS culling. Anyway, I used to follow a bulldozed track over their hill to where the Rokai comes out. Used to get the odd one.

Yes there is a cut track taking you from the Tamaki carpark over the lower saddle into the bottem of the Rokai,there is a small amount of sign on track.The farm is now owned by Colin Bond so he could have bought that of them.

So you have got Wiggins old place at the end of the Tamiki Rd, Brads? Thats the place I used to hunt. Timmins owned it at one stage too?

I recall going through Colin’s to some other creek too. His house on the right, and plenty of electric fences. About 1994.

She's a small world a, Doug is my father in law.
I have never been in through Colin's place.
Was the Roki hut there then Thar?
Drop me a pm if you want two go back for a hunt.
As long as you run over any poachers

Good man. Rewarding isn't it

Top job Neckers and like namesake smashed him in the Neck.

Ya starting to look like a bushman too. Those pines on the "Cats Paw" were planted for erosion control also,they were fenced last time I was up there but that was awhile ago and the old fulla I used to work for told me the slips were grassed and fertilized years ago.

Top write up and pics. Great results

As good as the forest service was the "erosion control" was a gigantic fuck up in league with the release of rabbits in the south island.

Pine trees are a scourge on the landscape and IMHO forestry company's and private forest owners should have to pay to remove or spray pines on public land where previously there were none.

That will make me un popular but Its my opinion

I have no opinion on that but its a funny feeling moving thru them in the Ruahines because they seem so out of place
