Thread: introduction post from Canada

Hi guys!

yes another one...
I did read all the other canadian member post collecting information and suggestions. Most of them aren't really active so I decided to jump in and present my self.

for the intro, I'm hunting rifle and compound bow for years, mooses, white tail deer and turkey.
Always working harder than the average hunter here, carrying, walking, tracking, camping, etc... I guess it put me in your low to average local hunter in NZ lol

I do try to plan a hunting trip to NZ but in no hurry! planning is for 2025!
reading map, DOC and gouv info for the last months... but always more questions come from those reading sessions!

Since the forum often come in my research, I quickly understand that making friends here will bring my whole research experience to the next level

I'm not looking for hunting spot or secret to share, I can walk and WILL, the track is my favorite part of any hunt!

I'll keep looking for my answer on past posts, but will ask question for sure!

Welcome J, enjoy your visits

Welcome aboard

Welcome aboard

probably a canadiens fan..............

welcome

Welcome mate.

Welcome - you'll have a great time. There are lots of subtle difference between hunting in Canada and NZ that can trip you up, but it's great.

Also, do yourself a favor and start doing some serious time on a stair climbing machine or climbing staircases with a backpack. Anywhere on the south island the hunting is way steeper than a lot of Canadian hunting.

thanks for the welcome

missed the forum concept in the last decade, where sharing wasn't showing off and asking wasn't a attention complex lol

I'll be in the south island, targeting Queenstown airport and not to close of the fiord and it's wet weather.
