Thread: Organizing a good 60th

Hi,

I was hoping to pick all of your brains and maybe get a thread going as I have been awarded the "privilege" of organising a hunting trip for my dads 60th and desperately need ideas.. I'm not much of a hunter and though he used to hunt a lot, he hasn't for a good few years.

Currently looking to do this in the South Island as he has only really hunted in the Ureweras and central North Island. I am tossing around a couple of spots to get choppered into and spend 4 or 5 days hunting, I looked into private stations or guided hunts, but my dad being a hunter from way back and pretty stubborn probably wouldn't enjoy the feeling of knocking over animals that require no effort on his behalf... correct me if you have had better guided experiences!

He's not as fit as he used to be and I hope his vision hasn't started to go so he can actually hit the bloody things, but would be nice just to spend a week in a really cool spot even if the hunting isn't the best, I'm not much of a hunter myself so would be good to hear some of your cool trips and stories to drum up ideas and try get some semblance of a plan....
Cheers
