Nice work, Molesworth last weekend by the look of it
Great video. That MSR (or copy) tent, didn’t like the snow!
Nice block that one. Bet the nights were cold and long.
One of those stags would have made a huge trophy if given 5 years to live. This is happening too often in there now and will be the downfall of the trophies in there. There is a lot of crap bloodlines in there but some very good ones as well. Have hunted it for 20 years and we left one stag for 4 years in a row and we shot him as a 9 year old that scored 367DS, well worth the wait.
Great vid and it looks like you had a lot of fun in spite of the snow.
@Puddleduk, each to their own. Post a pic of the head you mentioned?
Absolutely each to their own but better to take a hind rather than young stags with very good genes in my opinion. Will post a pic of the stag I mentioned if allowed, was my mates turn too shoot and will ask his permission first, I doubt he will agree. Also that area was meant to be poisoned but has been put off till next year.
Yea mate I agree I would have liked to see them live also but we split into 2 groups and that was the other group. We were under the impression that the 1080 was getting dumped end of July?? All the meat was carried out and is now feeding family’s.
Would also love to see a pic of the stag :)
:cool: Video, nicely done
That was great [emoji3]
Never been up there but will do one day. Trouble is the more i look around the more i realize there is to see.
No issue what so ever with those boys taking those stags. Lets face it if DOC has delayed their drop until next year then there is not much hope of them lasting another 5 !
Meat in the freezer = happy families. I am sure those who cook it and eat it will appreciate it, and i can see that those who harvested it did.
Just my views!!
Have to say my favourite shot was boyzie at the end with the deer and pig head strapped to his pack...classic......"don't worry bros Ive got it covered" LOL....mean load !
Cheers for posting [emoji106]

@ puddleduck, thats gotta be one hellaova shrewd stag to get right thru to 9years in the tooth with that well known Hanmer D model operator continuously working that country thoroughly aswell as the aerial drop dumped in there a couple of years ago.Either that or he spent 9 years in Ward's home paddock! Still looking forward to a happy snap of that head.....BTW you probably know Nimmo released a dozen Rakaia pures for Trophy improvement on the Muzzle a few years ago, but not 9 years back.A quick eye ball of the head would reveal local blood or Rakaia influence, so how bout that photo?
Owner of the head does not want it on here, shot in 2016 before the poison and the heli from Hanmer didn’t seem to get in there much from what I saw. The head does seem to have outside influence most likely from the Muller escape like all the big heads in there. They are pretty easy to tell apart from the local genes in that country.
