Whats been the latest (past few years) 1080 campaign in the North Block - South Block to if you know

There's never been a lot of animals living in the tall forest in the Ranganui Block, even way back before it was 1080ed. There is always a few around the swamp edges to the north and along the farm edge to the south though, but overall there are far better places to hunt in Pureora.

They haven't done the North Block for a couple of years or three. Must be the same for South. Must be due.

Was talking to a "bonnet hunter" that I know the other night, he stated that the deer numbers are better on the South side. He was going on the visuals he has while "bonneting" which he seems to do as a full time occupation.
