Scrub hunting on a wet day. Located a red deer yearling and carried out the prime venison. One more deer this summer and my freezer will be full for the year ahead.
Picture perfect clearing. Shot this fallow deer at 230 meters with my 243 leaning off a manuka tree to get over the scrub and regen bush.
Deer camp. Swipe to see camp meat and valley views.
Evening scene in the Haurangi. A nice spot to spend some time.
On the way to adventure.
Walking the Dolomites a few years ago on a cold and windy day and seeing views like this was pretty amazing.
Write a story and the editor, Simon Gibson, decides to put you on the cover of the Spring issue #218. Thanks @nzdeerstalkersassociation I'm thankful and privileged. I need a camo upgrade... or maybe not, as it seems to work well.
Not much to eat in the alpine zone. Seems like chamois and tahr eat rocks. Nice views however.
First use of my new tent which has replaced my Kea destroyed one. I really like the color of these Hubba Hubbas. Nice spot to camp too.
The 7mm Rem Mag R8 on alert for chamois.
Just been hunting for a week in the easy country found in remote parts of Nelson Lakes National Park with some NZDA women hunters. It was epic.
So I'm running these Nevada out of the box from Crispi after being a convert at the Sika Show. They say no breaking in required. I'll let you know after a week on the tops. She'll be right. Trust the sales guy!
