Welcome from Telford Hunting New Zealand Ltd
Gerald Telford, owner
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.

Awesome hunting experience in New Zealand
9.7
I liked the layout of the hunting land. Spotting and stalking mixed with some stand/blind hunting. Something for all levels of conditioning and experience. Plenty of game to keep it very interesting.
I probably picked a bad time to go as it was towards the end of the hunting season. Lots of game to see but hard to get close.

Excellent hunting experience

The quality and abundance of game in some beautiful and challenging terrain, excellent service from Gerald, Duncan, and Ruth (top notch, professional, and personable) and amazing accommodation in Lake Hawea close to the hunting grounds of Mt. Maude. To say this was a trip of a lifetime is an understatement, my friend and I got exactly what we were hoping for from the experience in terms hunting some challenging terrain, putting on a few good miles on foot, and shooting some amazing animals. I personally couldn’t be happier with the hunt and would recommend Gerald and team as an outfit for a New Zealand hunt any day.
The long flight was about it.

We visited Gerald on the second week of their season and you could tell immediately that he and his crew had spent weeks / years knowing the game on Maude Mountian. Their knowledge of the game and deep connection in the community was clearly evident. The accommodations were outstanding! Had no idea we would be staying in a 2.5 million dollar lake house! Fully equipped with drinks and eats along with an amazing Inn Keeper, Bev! The game was plentiful and expert guides tailored each hunt to the individual perfectly. 100% success rate provided your aim is good.
Easily the fact that it was over in a week. If you take the time to hunt with Gerald and his crew I highly recommend booking an RV or something for a few more weeks to fully take in this beautiful country.

The views were unreal, the guide taking us through great hikes and ideal areas for Glassing the hills, so many animals to see. The accommodations were so nice and the home cooked meals such a treat.
The hunting was amazing. Couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Trip of a lifetime!
10.0
Our experience with Telford Hunting & New Zealand was amazing. We couldn’t have asked for more & our lodging couldn’t have been better. We had a house host that took excellent care of us & provided delicious NZ dishes for our meals, as well as an acting travel guide when needed. The hunting guides were excellent & trophies taken were beyond expectations. We were extremely impressed. It was the trip of a lifetime!
