Obviously not my film and unsure if it's been posted here before. But I liked it because it shows some of the grinding and effort that can go into NZ hunting. ...

Fantastic episode last night. Loved the emotion from Don, you could see it meant a lot to achieve that. Big thumbs up to Emil for carrying that filming gear up those bluffs.
