As for waro it does a good job I have no problem with it, deer numbers are out of control around these parts so something must give.
As with ground hunters its the same with chopper pilots a bad few letting us all down

It makes no sense eh?


I have no problem with waro either.... Obviously


But a lot can be done to identify a potential trophy if not obvious from the machine before shooting.
You would know yourself, even if a stag has just cast there are a lot tells and it just takes a bit of time to see them.

If deer are in the tussock you can herd them anywhere you want generally.
The odd smart hind will make it hard.

I don't see why ether banning waro in certain areas or have savvy crews leave the good ones can't be mandatory in certain areas.

All a pipe dream I know but it's good discussing it.
