    Tasman is breaking the mould of male macho bullshit hunting vids and I applaud it. He’s not alone but he is the best.
    Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing, and right-doing, there is a field. I will meet you there.

    I hardly ever watch hunting/shooting videos (apart from Norway's always excellent ones) but I checked this guy out and he is pretty hard case eh? I am laid low sick at the moment so might watch a few of his videos over Easter.

    As a dad of three girls its great to see the young ladys out there doing it, impressive long range shots too for some first time kills.

    How good does the 4wding and camping look up that SI river.

    I also enjoy watching Tasman and Arvens adventures, interesting to see his Stuart Island adventure and straight crossing on the quicksilver inflatable... They definitely show what can be done on a budget with a keen sense of adventure, keep it up.

    Wasn't sure about Tasmans videos when I first found them but now rate them very highly, pity Arvid went to Ireland.

    Tasman's videos are very good. "Up the hill". I also like watching Ben DB's hunting videos and of course Keeping It Wild.

    Not so much the highly sponsored ones with all the flash gear or access to private hotspots.

    Get yourself a Chromecast. They're so much better on the big screen

    Identify your target beyond all doubt because you never miss (right?) and I'll be missed.

    @Finnwolf - definitely get a Chromecast if you have a TV to connect it to. They're quite cheap now and makes watching so much better!!!

    I'm enjoying the latest series a lot. A good mix of terrifying mountain adventure stuff and then more accessible type trips I could see myself doing. And it's been a common thread across most series that they take people who haven't got a lot (or any) hunting experience and get them into big country to harvest what is often a first game animal. It's a fantastic thing that we should all endeavour to do in some way.

    I've been watching Tasman and Arved's adventures for some time now. They really know how to enjoy themselves, though they've been getting advised to be kinder to their knees by some of their older viewers! The stuff they take into the hills is funny as hell. The patented hunting jandals and the 'up de hill' catchphrase are particular favourites.

    Another good show last night on Duke and learned something from Cam Speedy too, especially liked Greg's talk on rifles as well.

    And to cap off a great evening Tasman has a new video up on Youtube too.
