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!

Packing in a hurry this morning after the Sika Show, so it's all a bit messy! I used my trusty list to take the thought out of it. I'm off with some @nzdeerstalkersassociation folks and Josh from @thehuntersjournal to do a red deer management hunt in Nelson Lakes National Park. Weather is a bit stormy. We might find a good chamois buck if we're lucky.

Proud to represent and work for grassroot hunters, like those in NZDA's team at the Sika Show, who volunteer, educate and advocate. These members are the lifeblood of our sport in New Zealand. Join NZDA and become part of the community because together we are stronger.

I'm at the Sika Show with the other NGOs but representing NZDA and NZ's recreational hunters and shooters. Drop by and say hello as I'm keen for a chat and any feedback. I stopped by the folks at the Tahr Foundation stand, as I'm a supporter and passionate alpine hunter.

NZ Falcon in the high country.

Bull tahr trophy from a memorable 2019 West Coast trip on the wall and looking majestic. It is from Westland National Park just prior to when the extensive government culling started, so it might be harder to get a mature head from the area nowadays. He's a solid beast, with 13" horns and good bases.
