i heard of one in the mangapura valley. dude was coming back to camp on quad and was following a mob of goats on track before they ducked off" i saw one with horns this big" shoulda shot it bro they're harder to get than 12 point red....

biggest ive shot is a 33" (i think) from Martinboriugh. still have it

saw one in Hawkes bay just off road looked like a mob that was being held for sale- all behind wire in a mob- now that had to be over 40 inch - they are rare - the whole time I was full time goat culling that 35 I got was the best - we did a big job Tokomaru bay 3500 of Makomako station for it to go into pines 10,000 acre station rough as -thought we might get a good one of there but no

bossman is doing a muster of the goats. be interesting to see how many get sent...ill hold off until its all done.

Hii, Dear mates.
My name is Joshua Li. I am a creator of a charitable spearfishing club.
We are looking for a farmland to bowhunting for goats.
We can pay for the access into the farmland.
If you can make a offer, please contact me on 0272812805
Many thanks.

hopefully mustering will be done today n we'll see whats left. have couple more pics to upload. no go so will try later

single goat is one of a mob. unfortunately didn't get them all. another muster happening this morning. ill check after that to see whats out there. not seeing many now...

76 out the gate to the goat catcher... making a hole in it now

If anyone is in the Canterbury area doing pest control, I am super keen to learn and get my .22 out

Came past Levin.
On left just before Ohau empty paddock section.
Well talk about Watership Downs.

.. a few more

cheated a little bit. bodies went into a handy tomo...

that tomo job cracks me up a bit one station we did for goats the owner asked if we could at least hide bodys well we took over 800 off his back paddocks ( 5000 acre station ) walking around the ridges here would be a pile of goats with some ragwort dumped on top as camouflage

guess this qualifies as pest control....15 possum, all in poplars. will need to ad to this after doing a mission on hares on some crop ground...

pest control still, not quite farm. There's four goats in than pic, two tucked outta sight....

these four took a bit more effort to get. two sperate hunts, took the left turn instead of right on second time n came home with a result. goats were in a block of pines, some which had been newly planted.. for the second time...
