Phoned a landholders tonight to get permission to cross his land to get to the hunting block. He amazed me when he thanked me for phoning him for the permission, as he said most thought it was their right to be on his land. He told me he gets a bit cranky when he finds people that he has no idea of on his land. We talked some and he wished me a successful trip. 10min max a DOC permit now legal.
Those in the original post put our hobby at risk. Not happy with that.
