Dundee would have you believe there is... I have about as much luck with fish in the river as I did with ducks on the pond last year! Although perhaps technique and tactics can be blamed for both!!

A sage indeed... However - we went for the dam with the most ducks last year though... of the 50 that left in the morning, 6 came back! After pondering our last effort over several warm beverages...
That sounds like one of those simple things that works amazingly... Will have to give it a go! Cheers Micky.
Morning team!
Leading up to this years shoot I'm lucky enough to have two ponds to hunt... 1 is a largish high country dam with plenty of manuka bush and some raupo (I say high country but it's...
Hey lads, I've been gifted an old cow horn that was taken from a cow on my grandparents farm many moons ago. I've sanded it up and got it looking good. Just wondering what is the best way to protect...
Cheers. So why the big speel on filling out forms? confusing.
Just to jump into this banter bus... I've had a quick browse over the NZDA website and can't find a Ruahine branch application form?? Am I smoking drugs or is it not there?

I bought myself a pair of Irish Setters from Pioneer Outfitters in Foxton. Bought the VaporTreks (light weight half height boot), only complaint with them so far is that on wet Papa/clay/hard...
Hey team, just wondering if anyone has any experience with the Ranger mobile phone range from Kiwimobile? It's spec sheet looks impressive but I'd be interested to know if they stack up to all the...
+1 for the Stow-it. I carry mine in my van for work as well as in the bush, if I had my time again though I'd buy a size bigger so it goes over all my gear better when hunting but for all round use...
The look in that young fullas eyes says you're his hero. Great stuff!
Hey team
Has anyone heard any of the stories circulating the Facebook lately about the use of 1080 in the Pan-Pac forrests? Apparently there was a family caught in the middle of a drop, or in...
Haha, nah thanks mate, I have my slice of paradise in the North. I'm just more after good places to make some memories really, not even that fussed about actually seeing animals, just getting down...
Hey team...
A long time ago some friends and I always talked about doing a roady around the top half of the south island playing hunter gatherers; a lot of water has gone under various bridges...
Sorry Frosty, I had to beg and grovel as it is to find my own place to hunt. Times are tough I tells ya.
Tiger country then?
Yeah? Where abouts if you don't mind me asking? There has been a fair amount people talking about where some big animals are this year... Will see what comes in on the Monday!
Possibly a bit, don't hunt there for the comp myself but I imagine a few would. Gotta recover the whole animal and though my knowledge of the area isn't the best, I have heard it's hard yakka...

An "inexperienced hunters" point of view.... I'd personally like to have the shooters mistake analysed and released just to get some kind of insight into how he made such a massive mistake, because...
Here's an odd one I learned from the motorbike game... Liquid silicone works amazingly on squeeky things. Dab a little bit on the squeeky area and see what happens. Only problem is it doesn't...
They look like punk rocker boots? I imagine they are comfortable, but how would they handle NZ conditions (mud, snow, rocks, clay, water, sand, sun)? Their website advertises them as "urban...
Cheers for all the help lads. Never thought about the different lacing options, will be giving that a crack first!
Yeah, that was going to be the next course of action. Hopefully they don't charge like wounded bulls to find out nothing though! I tried some off the shelf inserts at Bivouac but they made not...
Hey team
I have a bit of a dilemma... Went out for a walk with the companion up the Ruahines last weekend and threw my boots (Evolves) on with my regular sock combo. All was well for the first...
