First hunt for 2016, spent 5 days in the kawekas. Pretty average weather, rain, wind and fog but still good to be out there. The weather made hunting difficult for the first 4 days, we got out every day but only saw 5 deer, then the last morning the weather was perfect, no wind and a bit of clag about but fined up nicely. Saw 4 deer and got 2, a good way to end the adventure! YouTube link below.

Nice video.. thanks for taking the time to put it together. :cool:
Stop it, was at castle camp last year, but in march, so looks a bit different, only have to wait 2 months and back to Kaweka. Can't wait,

Well done mate....great little video...and dinner day 5 looked bloody great as well....
Great vid, um you may have left your camera behind ;)
Hi Gibo - yeah looks that way! Was going to explain that in the vid but would have been a bit long winded, he made two trips, took Glen and most of the gear first trip then came back and picked up Ben, me and the dog so I was able to film take off for first load.
I guessed as much :) What's the cover on Bens brake for? Just to keep the water out?
See my comment on the other forum... Nice NZHunter rifles! $$$ much?
:-)
The cover on the end of my brake I made to keep water and crap out of my barrel as the ports on the brake are large
Cheers
Nice area that
Pity about the weather but nice to be out there.
Hi craigc. Yes we both have custom NZHunter rifles. I wouldn't want to quote prices but if you email Greg he will send you a price list so you can pick and choose what you want done. They do a great job.
are those the 90L Bison Packs?, how you guys rate them?
Kooza - yes all 3 of us are using the Bison 90 litre, awesome packs to carry, especially heavy loads. Best I have used.
Ok cool, I checked out the 75 at the local h and f. They look good.
No issues with water getting in with the zips? Thanks
Kooza - If it's really wet I use a pack cover or dry bag to put gear inside the pack, don't know if you would ever get a fully water proof pack with all the zips etc.
ok thanks for that. wet or dry all my gear goes in dry bags, and if its persisting down then a pack cover over the top.
going in tomorrow to have a look at the 90, wallet might be lighter afterwards.
