I've bought my ticket. I've been lucky and hunted under the ballot twice, taking one trophy stag. Haven't entered the ballot for a decade or more, The hunts are at the wrong time of the year for me. If I win a ballot, can decide at the time if the allotted week is possible or not.

Rejoined the ADA as well, must have let my membership lapse again. Haven't been to a meeting for a long long time. Maybe have rejoined in time for the extermination of deer from SA? Membership of the ADA is not necessary.

The ballot is open to foreigners. Only A$25. One ticket a person only. Very cheap way to hunt a hot deer. Self hunting, but a companion can come along. No assistance hunting. So someone could assist with camping, gear etc. Airfare, maybe borrow or hire some stuff. Maybe if needed hire someone to assist with the non hunting.

Or pay huge outfitter fees for a normal non balloted hunt.

I hunted in the 1990s. Its changed since then. Now three places. It was two, Blond Bay and Boole Poole, the last where I hunted twice. Five hunters ball9ted at BP, Another five at BB. Second trip, one with us was a lady, her husband was along, including when she hunted.

The ballot allocates a week for winners, not choice or exchanging. Weeks over say two months. Allocated park. Now it might be allocated a female or a male or either. I suppose for management, not only males shot.

I'd like to hunt hog deer again, three times lucky?
