    Lightbulb Fresh Hunter on the Block

    Hi Everyone,

    Fresh hunter here, started hunting young in the early 90s with my God Father then nothing until around 6 years ago.

    Slowly getting into it now alone or with already established hunters.

    Just thought I’d chuck it out there, I’m on a search for any Central North Island and/or Waikato spots to drop a few goats for dog tucker? I know they are out there but if anyone can offer and advice on areas that are choca-block would be nice to go for a weekend and stock the freezer for the pups.

    Cheers

    Welcome aboard
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Welcome to the forum, plenty of spots in the central area mate. Go online grab a DOC permit, select the area where you want to start, all the maps are there. There is no shortage of deer on PCL land. Take your time, keep your eyes moving, grab a good pair of binos sit and glass. You will either bump into one or two or see them, plan your stalk be weary of the wind. Good luck.
