hoping to put up a thread for past wanaka roar balloters to get some kind of feel for it, as the information out there is rather limited , a bit sketchy and maybe a more heresay than factual on first hand experience, i also dont feel like the Waro AND "1080" helps much of the Wanaka Blocks being in that Aspiring park? that would be a fair comment?

Ive not done too much in the blocks apart from one or three but looked as though low numbers, but deer and hut books were quiet but most lead to poor numbers and or just miserable weather during their periods so bailed out early...
at some point it should get alllright again ay?

So long as the feral venison price is profitable and the government are throwing 1080 up everyone's bungle, numbers in the Wanaka blocks will remain low.

Remember that the heli guys that fly us into the Wanaka and Haast blocks are the same ones shooting the place from the air days beforehand.
Last year I was in a certain heli operators office paying for a trip.
Their UHF radio was talking in the background.
Was fairly obvious from the chatter they were shooting at the time, 12 hours before they flew dozens of people into their roar blocks

the bottom line was if you were a bit feral yaself, didnt have much fuork to give to others and owned a Chopper..... you(i) would likely do the same ..
