    100% first time I watched I was not expecting to like it but he does some cool trips and seems a good bloke. I do wish he'd cover up a few spots though.

    Definitely agree, Tasmans's videos are great fun. Some really fun stalks in awesome country and some absolute monster pack outs (there was a vid with three deer / 87kg pack). Also backpacks some absolute nonsense into the hills like a pasta maker or wok hahahahaha, legend!

    It's not a hunting trip if he doesn't bust out the mincer in the middle of nowhere

    Rodgees videos don’t spin my wheels a whole lot, but didn’t think there was anything to get ya knickers in a twist about. If ya don’t like his personality then don’t watch him.
    He certainly isn’t afraid to put in the hard yards to recover the venison he shoots, and his gun safety yarns can’t be knocked.

    Why wouldn't you just hit the guy up directly with your concerns instead of doing a hit-job on him on here?

    I feel this is terrible. There isn't a lot wrong with his clips. This sort of crap is why the hunting fraternity is due to fail and will never gain any traction with governing bodies. Why bad mouth and trash each other. If it's not your thing then keep it to yourself. I realise being in the public space like YT opens you up to criticism. Doesn't mean you need to act on it. Quite disheartening really.

    While I get what some of you are saying, I have to disagree, I think YouTube posters like this do us all more harm than good.
    Especially the more impressionable people getting into hunting.
    I'm not into watching hunting stuff at all, but the little I've seen of Rogee, I didn't see a single clean kill, infact I thought it was bloody disgusting.
    I'm into longrange hunting, but the clear lack of control on when to take shots and when walk away was frightening.
    Yes, there are just deer, and they are absolutely everywhere, but they still deserve a decent death.

    Can I suggest maybe if anyone has any issues with the content around safety especially they go directly to the person? Not just chuck it on the internet to bring people down.

    I watch his videos cos im keen to learn and shoot better at long ranges, and I gotta disagree with you. I think in most videos the deer he shoots at are generally dead on the same slip he shot them on and don’t go far at all. He does leave quite a few too. Generally if it’s a bit windy and they’re past 600, he leaves them.


    Are there a few that he can’t find, yep, is he showing us the others that he doesn’t find, who knows? I reckon most are clean though.

    Ill reserve my opinion re You Tube.

    But for the counting down, i often do that with less experienced shooters to make sure we fire at the same time if shooting multiple deer so that someone doenst jump the gun and spook them for the other shooter

    And for multiple shooters on 1 deer, makes sense as it increases your chance of a clean kill, 2 holes better than 1 especially if you arent gonna carry the animal out out whole.

    To be fair there are plenty of so called "proper hunters" who are terrible shots. Just spend the day at your local NZDA range. I think a lot of "proper hunters" just dont tell you about the missed or bad shots.
