    And you would be right Dundee.

    Chamois? 1200-1400 metres. South facing bluff systems.

    That man deserves a beer (So long as its not Red or Waikato ) Wait for it ....

    The majority of my hunting, like 80% + is on DOC country. The chamois and fallow bucks were both shot on DOC land. We only accessed the DOC through a mates place for the fallow.

    Just got back from and overnighter on DoC land with Malhunting. Saw 8 deer and 8 chamois. All within a couple hours walk from the truck. You've just got to know where to find them and it takes time scoping these spots out to learn that.

    Adam gave me a few boxes of Speights for the trouble, I was happy with that
