Good Luck
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

Just about to head home from New Zealand! Absolutely amazing adventure. Everyone who has this on their bucket list, make it happen!!! We started the trip flying into the backcountry by helicopter for 5 nights and it was unreal. We killed 4 tahr, 2 chamois and a few feral goats. The scenery was breathtaking and the hunting even better. After that, we headed to Glen Dene in Wanaka for a guided stag hunt, and it was just as good. Amazing service, people, and animals. They make you feel like part of the family. First guided hunt I’ve ever been on and I couldn’t be happier with it. Here are a couple pics, videos will be coming soon to YouTube as well as the guns and ammo website. Stay tuned!!

Someone with experience. What does it cost for one person to do a diy newzealand hunt. Also cost for a helo ride in? Would like to hunt fallow deer someday.
