    Hunting in Christchurch (Halswell)

    Seems to be some deer on the loose in town.
    Can’t see any ear tags…

    Snooping around the streets in a gillie suit & 6.5 CM may not go so well

    There are plenty of feral deer, both reds and fallow in the area. A pest controller is used from time to time to remove some, funded by the council.

    I usually drive a couple hours to go deer hunting. Imagine coming home and theres 3 on the driveway! Bloody hard to actually do anything about them anywhere near town though. Maybe a good spear might deal to then if they happen to go in your backyard where no one can see them…
