Well I didn't know that this thread "Stags 2020' had to have a price listed like the Buy Sell and Exchange thread? But you are curious and that's not a bad thing. When its all boiled down we all pay for our deer, chamois or Tahr. For those of us who have done multiple trips into Fiordland, Stewart Island or even chopper trips into South Westland or the Kawekas. All cost money.
I shot this stag on private land bordering DOC land with Brain Elwarth. I'm a very late starter on Sika and they are a different beast than I am used to with Reds and fallow. Not only do you get access to great hunting spots but I learnt so much about the habits of these interesting deer and how to hunt them.
Not that I have to justify the stag to anyone but I feel at ease we had to stalk in on it and in the end I had to do the business with the rifle.
I travel a lot globally consulting and don't have the privilege many do to seek out local hunting spots and hit them regularly.(Like I used to) So I chose in this case to find someone who delivered free range hunts in the most basic style.
What did the hunt cost? If you want an awesome hunt call Brian Elwarth and he can give you all the details and options.. You get a great experience and access to his awesome knowledge and blocks.
I can sleep easy at night knowing the deer we saw and stalked were not in a fenced block. I trust this cures your curiosity.
It makes no difference weather you pay someone or pay to do it yourself, but as you can see the results speak for themselves, great stag @Southcity one to be proud off.
