    I need to get into decent shape again and am badly out of shape right now. I'll be back farming this summer (northern Hemi summer), and that goes a long way toward getting the blubber off and the muscles awake again.

    Money is a real limitation.

    Is there any use in trying to fulfill my dream of hunting in your great country, or should I be d@mned glad I've done all the things I have over the years. Is the flight there a killer?

    PLEASE, don't hold back and tell me straight.
    Start by looking at the cost of flights.
    You're in Nevada? Your best option is direct to Auckland NZ, out of San Francisco or Los Angeles, via AirNZ.
    AirNZ offers the only direct flights from the West Coast of the USA.
    Or via Hawaii with Hawaiian Airlines if you don't think you'll manage the direct flight.
    Count on a 12 hr direct flight.
    Then factor in internal flights to get you to your intended hunting area.
