New Zealand is one of the only places in the world where you can hunt the majestic Himalayan Tahr, but it’s much easier said than done!

We spend a week on ‘Rakiura’, capturing the minutiae of island life on this slice of untouched paradise at the bottom of New Zealand, and put in some incredibly long hours in the treestand in an attempt to nab an elusive whitetail buck on bow.

The first weekend in May signals the start of the Duck Shooting season in New Zealand. This momentous occassion is an absolute religion in the deep South.

Sika Deer are the jewel of NZ’s North Island, and are regarded as providing some of the best eating venison of all the deer species. With a reputation as being one of the most cunning of all deer species, their unique behaviour makes them a prized quarry amongst hunters.

After a huge Red Stag is spotted on a mid January reconnaissance trip, Dan & Sam return 3 weeks later in the hope of a return visit, and also in the hope that the big 12 pointer will have begun to strip his velvet to reveal the prized antler beneath.

In this episode, we head to the famous Molesworth Station, New Zealand’s largest working farm, to lend a hand in reducing Geese numbers, and have a lot of fun in the process.

After seeing in the New Year in Queenstown, Anto and Morgs hit the road for majestic Mount Cook National Park, home of NZ’s largest mountain, to the exact same spot where 12 months earlier a gigantic bull tahr managed to give them the slip.

We are joined this week by Emma, the newly married wife of one of our regular hunters Dan. We set out to bag Emma her first ever chamois buck, however, this roller coaster mission proves much harder than anticipated.
