Doesn't matter who gets the money under the current system - as much as we detest a rigged ballot, at least there is a pretence of fairness. Reality is, there is more money to be made by leasing the resource out to the highest bidder....especially with a captive population of Aucklanders so nearby (hell - even going completely integrated and selling to the highest bidder overseas: pick the fat bastard up from the airport and aim the rifle for him - he'll pay more that than your entire hunting kit and more than you are ever willing to pay....as we have seen elsewhere). Enjoy whatever hunting opportunities you have - they are greater than your children will...that's a given.
