Thread: Throwing this out there... Tahr and Aussies

go back 20 years and overseas clients WERE only taking representative heads of any size from that herds on public land...chammy too. the last 5-10 years has been awesome hunting.....
as for your poachers....go buy some relfective tape...make some "eyes" and place them around the show on deerish shaped trees...rusty 44 gallon drums have been strategically placed too..... got a mate with plasma cutter???? get them to whip up some deer cut outs...head n neck or full body and hang them around in strategic positions.....a shot into them will spook other animals in area,even with suppressors the twaaang of projectile going through tin will help.... these arent new ideas,it was common practice here a few years ago....heck some of us still place deers heads in forks of trees to fool folks...its a hell of a laugh when you get one of your mates with it....

ha ha it must be true, New Zealand is still 20 yrs behind....

Now days the technology is not a Dolphin torch out a window looking up trees for Deers..... its Thermal imaging handheld monoculars and also Thermal imaging Rifle scopes which are doing the damage across our State.

They will start selling Pulsars in NZ soon, an ya'll wonder where the big Royals have gone from the back paddock....

i do appreciate your response, its just very outdated

There is some talk of trying to Re write the Laws around Game animals to outlaw the use of Thermal imaging even in the Daylight, where many hunters are using them an totally takes away any reference to a Fair Chase hunt.

it is without any doubt, Daylight Spotlighting.
