  New Party Hunt Ballot System:
  Due to popular demand, we are trialing a ballot system to secure your spot. Simply register yourself for a 'ballot ticket' and the party hunt organiser will draw these and inform registrants within a couple of weeks of opening the event up. Please wait for the organiser to contact you. This aims to keep registration fair, between members who are active on their phone or computer during the day and not - typically these events are released without warning.

  About the Rusa hunt:
  6x beds available in the hut, first in first served. For those camping make sure you bring a good sleeping bag and sleeping mat, as it will get cold.

  1. There is access to the hut door for most standard vehicles, plenty of parking and space to set up tents.
  2. Running water, shower and BBQ available at the hut.
  3. Species include Red and Rusa deer.

  Bush stalking and lookout hunting available, shots from lookouts range from 100 to 600 meters. Note: No shooting of pigs within a 5km radius of the hut.

  Location:
  Galatea foothills. 

  Permits, intentions and party hunt questionnaire forms must be completed prior to attending.
