More about us

- Gerald, Sue and family and their guides welcome you to their New Zealand hunting operation in their corner of paradise – Wanaka, in the South Island
- Gerald Telford established the Wanaka based Fishing & Hunting Services in October 1993. As an active angler and keen hunter for 42 years, Gerald decided to make a career move away from the agriculture industry to set up a professional guiding service.
- He thrives on passing on the skills of years of hands-on experience to other anglers and hunters and his extensive local knowledge and contacts ensures a wide range of options are available.
- He is also strongly involved in the guiding industry as a Hunt Facilitator for the NZ Deerstalkers Association and a member and past president of The New Zealand Professional Hunting Guides Association (NZPHGA) and a member of The New Zealand Professional Fishing Guides Association (NZPFGA).
- Emphasis is on quality matched with a personally tailored experience with regards to both the service provided and the game trophies that our clients may wish to pursue.

Where you will hunt
Territory
Its fair to say I know our hunting block, Mt Maude, like the back of my hand, well enough to refer to it as “my Maude”. With a main 4WD track leading to the summit of Little Mt Maude (845m), we favour hunting Maude from the top down and make good use of the leading ridges as well as an extensive network of hunting tracks cut to follow existing game trails and contours. It’s tough, honest mountain hunting terrain made easier by the extensive knowledge of our guide team, the track network, and the balance between open grasslands and native manuka and kanuka brush country. Plenty of cover, plenty of feed and well managed hunting help provide outstanding hunting opportunities.
