Ramona,

I was given a feed of wild sheep many years ago (1959) in a place called Pohukura, (old timber mill) on the old Napier Taupo road and that was excellent and very gamey too, nothing like the mutton from the butcher. It was Maori land love and we had permission to shoot anything and everything apart from the pig and sheep. I never did drop a sheep, not that I would have anyway as I was after venison as at that stage they were about 2 bob a pound (lb).
The sheep that we did come across appeared huge as they had not been shawn for donkeys years, and their wool was impregnated or mattered
with sticks, twigs, leaves, dirt and very other thing that you would find in the bush. We figured that to kill one it would have to be a clean head shot as the bullet (.303 or .30cool would not penitrate that mass of wool that dragged along the ground....how the heck those sheep survived a hot summer, let alone many of them is beyond me.

Cheers.
