More about us

Our company was established in 1995 and operates in 1 territory.
  • I have been a professional hunter for all of my life and guiding since 1995. Hunts are the traditional spot and stalk methods. Which allow us to cater for all age and fitness levels. Over the years I have guided hunters from the US, Europe, Australia and New Zealand on all the South Pacific's trophies. I specialise in free range hunting (no high fences) and I believe I would be one of the longest standing free range hunting guides in the country.
  • If you wish to experience wild and free trophy hunting at its very best then please drop us a line. We would love to have you come hunt with us.

  • TESTIMONIAL
  • One word sums up David; integrity.
  • In the three hunts I have been on with him he has compromised on nothing. His word is his bond and contract. My first hunt was not to his satisfaction, so he invited me back the second year to do it again, at no charge. The second year, he went way out of his way to accommodate me and work around the unusual and peculiar circumstances of that hunt. It was the most challenging and incredible hunt I have ever been on. What started out as a serendipitous adventure on my part, quickly turned into a life goal, one that David and I achieved together. After finally bagging my tahr, he was as excited and happy for me as I was for myself. He more than understood the importance of the achievement. In the mountains, it was as if we were two best friends out on a hunt together. I never felt like simply a client or a meal ticket for him. I have such a high regard for him as a person, hunter, and naturalist I don't know how to put it all into words.
  • David took me places in the Southern Alps I never dreamed I would walk. He made me want to challenge myself, but never made me do anything or go anywhere I was not comfortable. I trusted him with my life and always felt safe. Besides leading me on fantastic and exciting stalks, his love of the wilderness and skill as a naturalist made him stop and point out unique and/or rare birds and plants. These were little extra jewels along the way. He is a hunter's hunter. A true hunter. He is Orion of the Heavens. I will always treasure my memories with him, in the mountains
  • or in town, in the car eating fish and chips. David, I thank you for all you have done for me and taught me. I hope to walk with you in the mountains again, friend.

Über diese Jagd

Recognized for their thick, chocolate-brown coats and impressive manes, mature bull Tahr are a true trophy for any mountain hunter. Their agility and preference for high-altitude cliffs make for a physically demanding and highly rewarding hunt. Hunting Tahr isn’t just about the pursuit—it’s about immersing yourself in the raw beauty of New Zealand’s alpine wilderness. With Wild Hunts New Zealand, you'll experience the perfect blend of adventure, tradition, and world-class trophy hunting. This fabulous traditional free range wilderness hunt over 5 days takes place high up the New Zealand's Southern Alps. Access to our hunting area is by 4X4 or helicopter (helicopter option will be an extra cost if this option is taken). We set up a base camp high up in an alpine basin or in a mountain hut and from there hunt our Himalayan Tahr on foot . We may also venture further from our base camp and fly camp if the weather conditions are ok. This is always a really good option and you will see lots of good bulls. Our success rate for this hunt is up in the high 90's and trophy quality is silver or. gold medal. If time permits, hunters may take up one extra tahr trophy, or hunt red stags/chamois that are sometimes present in our hunting areas at no extra cost as you are only paying for the hunt. Wild Hunts New Zealand does not charge trophy feesPlease find below some important points to consider when choosing a hunt. Fitness levels Time constraints Health issues Trophy hunting requirements and conditions can vary from hunt to hunt. We encourage you to explore all options with us. This will help us put you in the best camps for the best hunting opportunities as we want to provide the best hunt possible for you. We look forward to having you come hunt with us.
