  • Deer hunting in the alpine of the Southern Alps. Camping in a snowstorm high in the mountains. Kea interactions, drone footage and a few laughs. This trip was one hell of a weekend mish, we hope you enjoy the video as much as we enjoyed filming it!

    Just getting out there and appreciating our country is what it's about. As you guys said. Absolutely stunning and with the snow too! Thanks Guys

    Little Lakes of jewels, mountain peaks as precious stones. You could make a sweet career with that camera.

    Well done guys! Very inspirational. Thanks for sharing I have had a few misses lately also, I dont feel to bad now after seeing 3 shots fired and missing! 🤣 It does happen to the best of them.

    I spent a few years looking at that spot on the map before actually going there. Certainly worth it and popping over the tops is worth the effort too. On a side note, there are some really good shooting training courses run at Sparrowhawk in South Canterbury ;)

      Yeah we really wanted to pop up and over but with that storm rolling in decided to stay close to our campsite in case it turned to custard! Hahah I'll pass it on to Raddy 😂😂

    Beautiful place, great edit as always… so good to be taken along through the window you give into your back yard🙌 Merry Christmas to all “the boys” and your families, looking forward to seeing the adventures you all get up to in the new year 🤙
    P.s. The when the water crossing slip up happened, looked like the rifle took a pretty good knock! Things seemed to flow on from there, if you boys took a minute to sight back in after the stack I reckon you would have been hiking out with a lot more weight on your backs… love the videos regardless of outcome on the side of stocking the freezer there is always a lot more to take away from each episode!!! ✌️

      Thank you mate 🙌 yeah in hindsight that definitely could've done it. I don't think either of us thought he bumped it at the time, thought he'd saved it! Never a unsuccessful trip so long as you get out 😄

    Cracked it again boys, you're living a dream
    Raddy's humour over missing the deer was priceless, and as I reckon "you haven't shot many animals, if ya haven't missed a few as well" ... and unfortunately wounded the odd one
    Good that it was the scope that was a screw lose, and not him lol

  • @randyfacialhair

    Keep up the great vids boys. Get rid of those rings that clamp to the dovetail and get some that use the holes that are drilled and tapped in the receiver. I like the Talley Lightweights on my Tikka

    Excellent content; beautiful scenery. I was wondering if you didn't bump the scope on your hike up the mountain right when you missed that first shot. Sure enough! Happened once to a mate of mine as well.

    I thought I was the only one who messed up shots like that! Now I see that I'm not alone. Makes you weep to see three stags run away like that, when at least one of them should be on its way to your freezer, but, makes you appreciate it all the more in the future when things go perfectly and your deer drop at the first shot.

      @southislandriflewalkers5545  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks mate, we appreciate the comment! Depends on the trip, definitely getting a bit more weight with the camera gear. I'd say about 25-30kg for a weekend mish and a bit more for the longer trips

    Firstly; get those rings replaced for some decent ones haha. Second; awesome content like always and good laughs.
    One minor note, some of the scenes appear a touch juddery, like the fps has dropped while being edited or something (Watching on max quality).

      Nah but we've heard plenty of stories! Had to pickup a tahr hunter on a flight out of the Wataroa who's tent had been ripped to shreds by them, would've caused him some serious issues with where he was camping. We try and take the tents down if we know there's a few in the area
