NEW ZEALAND: Crate Unpacking Day New Zealand Hunt Trophies With New Zealand Safaris

[Pheroze]

So, getting the work done piece by piece from this trip, just picked up my fallow and one of the stags. The stag pic isn't the best, but once I have it hung maybe I'll post a pic in the taxidermy section.
Up next Tahr, and all the Africa stuff from last month!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@rinehart0050 ,

Are you going to the north or south island? What are you after?

 

[rinehart0050]

@reedy0312 North Island - going after red stag, fallow buck, and probably some wild sheep.

You will have a great time, look forward to the report and pics!

I was able to finally go to NZ earlier this year after many years of watching many hunting show about it! I just got my crate with horns and hides back from my hunt in late April! I am nowhere near the story teller some of you are, as I have read many entertaining and detailed reports on here recently. I will try my best to tell a small part of the story and post some pics. The first pic is of the crate and contents, I was fortunate to harvest 2 stags, a fallow, and a tahr. I lucked up for the most part with weather, as 5 of my 7 hunting days were sunny, the other two were pretty wet. Luckily I was able to harvest all animals in the first 4 days, the other days were spent sightseeing and hunting wallaby. I hunted the south island with NZ Safaris, they were awesome and had lots of private land. Tons of game, including stag, tahr, chamois, fallow, and ram all within 45 minutes of the lodge! If anyone is thinking of going to NZ, I would definitely recommend it and certainly recommend NZ Safaris! More pics to follow.

Glad everything made it in one piece Reedy!, was freight much different from shipping from Africa?
