So after getting my confiscation money there was the decision to be made of what to do with it. Plenty of advice was given by mates “buy this, buy that, buy a thermal” then I came up with my own idea. After 20 odd years of chasing meat around the hills I decided I might chase a couple of things to try to put on the wall. Not being a trophy hunter I didn’t need the biggest animal on the hill just something to be proud of. first was the chamois A great hunt in Arthur’s pass with a mate that pushed me to my limits. Next was a tahr hunt out of mt cook another hunt with mates that I will never forget. I have one more I want to plan and try to get and that’s a fallow buck, so I might be asking for advice on this in the future but as for now I’m very pleased to have picked these up.
