    Pheasant in BOP

    Right, so moving to Tauranga later in the year unfortunately after game bird season ends..

    What I'm keen on doing is getting out for a casual pheasant shoot sometime, I know a few of you blokes live down that way, hoping you could point me in the right direction.

    Not after an expensive guided hunt, just a relaxing casual private walk somewhere with the hope of perhaps being very lucky to shoot one to eat...

    Cheers Craig

    Rotoehu forest is right there for you, Kaingaroa forest is bit further but all accessible on the weekends with a permit that will cost I think about $50 for a season.
    Not sure what the numbers are like, but heck if you were tripping over birds it wouldn't be fun, would it.

    BOP is damn good for pheasants. Id say better than Far North these days (just my opinion).

    Not what I'd like to be doing... Shall be sitting on the bright blue briney with the sun beating a temperate 35deg, watching the workers work...

    Offshore overseas for a couple more weeks... lets me guess, you're chasing tasty flying things...
