Liquidasset, hunting in winter is often very productive in Pureoras, I seem run into deer in the middle of the day and there's far less hunting pressure. We have had a mega run of frosts since the shortest day. People often say reds are less fussed about the cold than sika, but I reckon they still generally stay out of guts and creeks where it will be super cold. North facing is your best best, walk down a slope until you find some fresh sign and sidle from there. Good luck!

depends on how many helicopters sowing two days with 3 machines if Huey sowing quicker than that
