bell hater,
i do agree with you on the remarks about skidbiter, the good ol venison days did bring the industry to life in nz, and there are now a s
tload of operators and bugger all work and people working for f all as you say!!
but there is also a big market at the moment in doing these types of hunts for clients, i have done them and they are great fun flying wise, but they aren't very sporting but sometimes money is money,you know obviously what it is like if you have done them before, the biggest concern is to get miles away before they start blazzing at the animal and there is lead flying in every direction apart from where the animal actually is!!
There are no laws prohibiting the hunting of animals form helicopters in nz, but somehow i think after this incident that something might change that, if you actually work out the number of people going out there and doing that kind of hunting compared to the amount of incidents then there is actually f all incidents!!!
