    There are several threads here about recommended books. Start with then mountain safety council bushcraft manual 40 available to buy online:
    BUSHM - Bushcraft Manual - Outdoor Skills for the NZ Bush (40) - NZ Mountain Safety
    For deer knowledge look for Lentle and Saxton's Red Ddeer in NZ. Older classics are Gary Joll's Big game hunting in NZ and Matt and Bruce Grant's The sharp shooter. Most shooting skills books and online info is focused on specific target shooting disciplines so not everything will apply for NZ hunting. The NZDA HUNTS manual is a great start but unfortunately out of print at the moment.
