    Westland Tahr Hunt

    Spent last week in Westland hunting tahr with a good mate.

    We used to do a lot of hunting together, but haven't managed to do a "proper" trip in over 3 years due to other commitments.

    This trip well and truly made up for lost time, we had a ball. The weather was awesome to be fair.

    Here's a bit of footage I've thrown together, sit back with a coffee and enjoy!

    I picked you for a 14 inch plus bull man.

    Can't shoot a 14 if you don't see one. Best we saw might've been over 13 --- unrecoverable.

    Wanted a couple of bull skins for gifts and took a shit load of meat home for salamis etc.

    Yes, definitely ballot. Lol!

    The LZ looked a bit tight! Was waiting of the blades to clip

    Cheers mate, awesome country. It was a bit tight, but vid makes it look a lot worse than it was.
