Myself & a colleague ( Wildfowler's Assn members) got a petition going in late 2014 which was signed by many pissed off hunters and presented to ERF&G in Oct/Nov last when the 2016 season regs were being set. So sanity has returned!!!! Hopefully this sort of nonsense won't raise its ugly head again!!!!!!

excellent work .
what do you think of eastern allowing preserve duck shooting??

im not thier biggest fan admittedly but i think they have given me good reason..
the stupid hen pheasant take and thier interference in hawkes bay to the point of co,opting thier finances and then excluding the public from any discussion of the relationship.
along with certain elements bieng lead by the nose for the tourist dollar in opening preserves to ducks .
in doing so creating a precedent that aw shoot owners and hunting lease buyers long for .which will infect hawkes bay then spread.
.with doctor bryce semingly now not giving a m.onkeys when regions give national council the finger.
.i bet southland has a wry grin given the reaming they got for stepping out of line not so long back
but i guess with lyons as national chairman and the apparent interest in overseas money instead of ours nothing surprises.
