Hi, Clinton here from Queensland in Australia. Was a member of the Fishnhunt forum but I think it has closed down.
I have hiked into and hunted Westland numerous times for tahr and chamois with my recurve bow. Post covid I'm looking at doing it again so I joined the forum to get back into the loop.
cheers, Clint
Welcome aboard
Plenty of good keen people here
Cheers, I've been hanging out for some mountain time since before covid was invented. I miss the mountains there so much.
With the tahr cull it seems hard to know the state of the hunting there now.
How are Chamois numbers?
Welcome Clint. Keep us updated on your trip.
Still plenty of tahr around if you put in a bit of effort.
Welcome and enjoy.
Welcome
No, I don't have a YouTube channel. I'm not into social media apart from forums.Quote:

What is your trad bow setup. Got any pics of kills with it?
Currently using a Border Black Douglas recurve. I have 58# and 70# limbs.

Wow that's awesome. Love your cover to keep the feather fletchings dry.
That middle Tahr looks a beast, and the Chamois is that a unicorn?
It was a nanny that had horn rot on one side.
Welcome aboard
Hiya matey. I've just ditched my compound and gearing up to learn an ifl recurve. Glad to see an aussie out in the rain, easiest tahr hunting ever. After yrs of coast hunting I now stick to the east side, much more productive for my effort.
Care to elaborate?
Kia ora, great photos. You should start a youtube channel.Quote:

Alberta black bear at 10m. No bait. Ambushed him walking to a field. Exciting stuff. Hunted with a mate under their hunter host system. Couple of mates doing it DIY.
