Leica Pro Hunter Philippe Jaeger and Per Agerlund Jacobsen went hunting for tahr in the Godley River Valley in New Zealand’s Alps. Dirt, gravel, rain and even snow are constant companions and the animals can usually only be detected from a great distance. After five days of hunting (including eight hours of stalking per day in extremely difficult terrain), the two hunters finally got lucky.

 
Interesting video. The "red camo" didn't seem to be an issue.

Here's a photo of Tony receiving that Shaw & Hunter award at the 1970 annual EAPHA Dinner Dance. Tony Dyer, then EAPHA President and Princess (Sunny) von Auersperg presented it. I also attended the event.

Good Afternoon,
How firm are you on your Dakota 416? I am highly interested but looking at a few different guns currently.

Best,
BJ
