Well planned
Carla had the week layed out from the minute I stepped off the plane. I hunted with 3 different guides as each was uniquely qualified to help me target the game I was after. Awesome week ending with 4 great trophies.

New Zealand free range hunt
everything was fantastic, quality of animals[all free range}.friendly guides, great food and lodging and Carla arranging every detail from start to finish
getting sick on the first helicopter ride
We became life long friends. Of all the hunts I have been on this is the one I think of often.
We liked everything
We had to go home
Good hunting experience
The fact that they did everything they could to make sure that my hunt met or exceeded my expectations. Even after I was successful with two animals and my hunt was officially over they entertained me way beyond any place I’ve ever been
Ours was a Donated Hunt we bought at the Safari Club Auction! Red Stag was the top Species on my Wife's Bucket List. so was also to be her 76th Birthday Present!

An outstandingly awesome place to hunt!!
Everything!!... Excellent game... Great people... Wonderful food...I came as a client but I left as good friends!
There wasn't a thing that I didn't like

Awesome adventure New Zealand
I loved it all. Absolutely an adventure of a life time. Great people, Great food, Great seanery and Great hunting. Nothing like it.
The only thing I didn't like is it didn't last long enough. Hahhaha. Time goes by way to fast lol.

Customizable New Zealand Adventure
Carla, our outfitter, was incredible at making the adventure all that my wife and I wanted it to be. As I figured it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, I wanted to make the most of our time and resources. Somehow we accomplished everything that we had hoped without ever feeling rushed or pressured. Our PHs were knowledgeable, patient, and extremely accommodating. One of my favorite memories was kicking off our boots for a "tailgate" lunch in a picturesque valley complete with hot tea. The scenery was breathtaking, and the quantity and quality of the game was awe-inspiring. I have spent the better part of my life dreaming about hunting in New Zealand, and I will spend much more of it trying to get back.
Struggled at first to get the animals we wanted. But, in the end we took to great stags. The thar
