About this hunt
Thriving on the central South Islands hills and mountains between 3500-7000 feet the Bull (male) Tahr develop their winter coats from mid April and carry them through till October. The nannies (females) come into season from late May, and with two properties of over 35,000 acres of private hunting in the heart of Tahr country we are able to glass them from the river valleys. Preferring rocky mountain outcrops till the rut trophy Bulls are sought after for their capes and horns (11-14 inches) and the experience of a truly affordable mountain hunt to rival that of any other species.
The package includes all guiding, meals, accommodation in a cabin style back country hut, 4 nights and 5 days hunting, pick up and delivery to Christchurch international airport, field prep of trophy and delivery to our taxidermist and the trophy fee on one free range Tahr.
Helicopter assisted hunting and fishing packages into New Zealand’s most remote areas are also available. POA (Estimate: US$2,000 per machine hour)
