To add some perspective to this debate, I was shown something last week which was really disturbing.
A client popped around to grab a new power lead, he uses a Pulsar Quantum and a Pulsar Apex for shooting deer on various farms, and selling the meat. He bought the gear last November, and has using it hard-out, shooting over 200 deer. But during our chat, he showed me a PDF map of DOC's planned 1080 campaign. The map was split into red = definate, blue = maybe, yellow = not at all. The red was just about everywhere. I mainly looked at my own area, and it started at the top of the Kahurangi, and spread right down to include Fiordland. He told me that he had access to this map because he is licensed to sell venison for human consumption.
So here we are, debating the rights and wrongs of a tiny minority, when our Department of Conservation are planning to wipe-out deer en masse, and in the process, kill thousands of protected birds. It's bloody shocking.
