Thread: Post rut stags

As a first time poster you are likely going to be a first time hunter in NZ
So the chances of success are already slim and would be further compromised by trying to do everything with limited time available

Trying to do both at one time in one location is a very tall order unless guided on private land.

I've done a trophy bull tahr , trophy Chamois buck within 1 hour of each other
But they like to live in the exact same places

Yes it’d be first time for us couple guys really wanting to go after tahr and couple after stag we’d probaly try go separate ways I figured they may be like bull elk and go hole up in nastiest shit possible away from everything

Both the things you are trying to do are extremely difficult for first time hunters in NZ

There's a Sticky Post with visiting hunter information you need to find and read

Success comes down to planning, experience and luck.
It could take multiple visits over years to gain enough experience to be successful.

NZ can be a very challenging place for visiting hunters.

Set modest, realistic goals and with a bit of luck you might exceed them.

Set lofty, multiple goals and you will certainly be disappointed
