Agree .
We do vast majority of hunting on doc .
Recently in particular there's a lot more trampers than hunters . That said a large chunk of those trampers seem to be tourists or recent arrivals to the country .
And that seems to also be seasonal .
A few years back at one of our local hut of the nine people there 8 of us had firearms .
Last we were there at Xmas only my family were armed and the other 20 odd people who passed through in the few days we were there were trampers and as mentioned , most were from overseas and doing the walk the length of the country and had been for months , rather than locals just out for a bush walk .
