Deep south nz hunting 2 Posted November 7, 2016 Report Share Posted November 7, 2016 Hi I'm the host. The trip is not just going to be pig hunting with dogs. I'm sure there will be people out there like me that's into alot of different types of hunting. I can offer red deer pigs chamois possum hares rabbits ducks tahr etc from walk in tent camping in the mountains to hunting from huts or from the truck. trout fishing from bank or jetboat. Accommodation and car provided. The days would be like 2 days guided hunting then set you off looking around. fishing etc. Then another 2 days guided hunting. Then your off home so the non guided days will be free 2 Quote Link to post

Boristheblade 1,367 Posted November 11, 2016 Report Share Posted November 11, 2016 It's something I'd defiantly be interested in, I used to live over in Aus and had a few outings piggin when I worked on a ranch in the outback. Was defiantly a life experience. Always fancied goin over to nz while I was there just never got around to it. My biggest regret. Quote Link to post

Silversnake 1,099 Posted November 12, 2016 Report Share Posted November 12, 2016 I have never hunted nz but I have visited three times for family reasons and it is a beautiful country and the people are as honest and decent as they come. I will go hunting there one day I am just not sure which species yet. Quote Link to post
