About this hunt

Our South Island free range block is a working sheep and beef ranch, which is also home to large numbers of roaming Red Deer and Fallow Deer. We hunt them from mid February till August each year. The best time to hunt either is during their Rut which the males become very vocal and gives the hunter a chance to see multiple potential animals for taking. Although we do have a farm house to stay in we can camp within the back parts of the free range hunting area and if hunting with a bow then this would be ideal, to wake up in the area and being able to stalk in the early morning light into the best position to secure your game. The type of hunting we do is Spot and stalk. 5 days hunting. We run these trips from February to August each year. Best time is in their rut from March through to the end of April. Also, available on this hunt at an extra cost: Free range Red Stags roaming the same property and we have Tahr & Chamois hunts in the same region.
