Anyone hunted with Peter Chamberlain

[GKNOX]

Good day,
I am thinking of planning a trip to NZ for Tahr and Chamois in 2017. Peter Chamberlain at Kiwi Wilderness Safaris offers an "Off Peak" hunt. This hunt is ran from Jan-Feb during NZ summer. Capes are not as thick as winter but I would only be doing a European mount so this is not an issue. Just wondering if anyone has hunted with Peter during this hunt (or any other hunt) and if so would appreciate some more info.
Thanks in advance.

Hunted chamois with Peter in early May of this year. Fabulous experience with a tough hunter. Probably the most physically exhausting hunt of my career but at 69 years of age, the body does not function as it once used to 30 years ago. Peter will get the most out of his hunter and is driven to succeed. Have nothing but good things to say about the hunt and the man. You will have a good time and bring your sense of humor as Peter has a very sharp and wry one. Aloha.

Thanks for the reply. Were you fortunate enough to harvest a chamois? Did you see many animals? Scenery looks amazing and it is always fun to share camp with good people.

My son and I hunted with Peter on a off peak (Summer)Wilderness Hunt for Tahr over 10 yrs ago. Great hunt and great guy. We took 3 Bull Tahr on that trip. I returned last April to hunt a Fallow Stag & Red Stag with Peter and he produced the goods as usual.
Highly recommended experienced guide and all round good bloke to boot.

Did take a decent chamois with Peter. Never measured but estimated at SCI high silver or low gold medal. Saw several animals while glassing but this is the first one we attempted a stalk on. Started the stalk at nine in the morning and got back to the vehicle at 10:30 that night. Took the shot at approximately 3pm.

I hunted with Peter about 15 months ago. i took a very nice Tahr, management fallow and a huge red stag. You can read my report and pics here http://www.africahunting.com/threads/new-zealand-my-new-zealand-hunt.16500/
I had a great hunt and Peter is a great fellow to hunt with. I'd go with him again in a heartbeat. Bruce
