Thread: Game bird diary for all

You should head south do some door knocking Hauraki plains & the Piako peat dome ,not much to shoot in Auckland
You'll find heaps of public access in the Spot-X book ,also the forestry's south of offers some awesome pheasant shooting
Think pheasant shooting has stopped at Wood Hill forest though.

Yep, I've been out North mainly and a bit of Waikato, there are still few forests I'd like to check out.

Waikato was quite funny when I walked up to a forest manager who just so happens to have returned from his pond with bag limit and a pheasant in the trunk, knocked on the wrong door, I wasn't going to get any info out of him...cool dudes tho, had a bit of a laugh and I was off on my way...

Not sure about Woodhill, last 3 years it was with allocated days, this year I have heard some rumors of ownership/management change.
