  • In this episode I'm solo hunting Chamois in the golden peaks surrounding Queenstown. Even this close to the city it's possible to take advantage of the bountiful game animals New Zealand has to offer.

    But you have knee pads and you actually bow hunt where you have to get close to animals and need cam, not boom a gun from 100 s of meters away across a canyon! This was another rad episode man! Love this channel best hunting one I have found, you inspired me to come over!

    Excellent Vid mate well done and keep them coming. Too all the keyboard warriors out there get a life ! At this point in time there are more game animals in NZ than there have ever been . Where I live Red deer are being culled and left to rot !

    Hey strider. Im writing this as I think this video highlights what is currently wrong with UA-cam hunters. Exposing this spot in a more than obvious way has before and will take away from a great spot. I’ve grown up hunting this area and it is dear to my heart so if you could change the video to help out hunters that would be great. You have lost my following over this one!

      hey mate i hear what your saying, honestly didnt expect this much feedback targeted towards block exposure. I dont like yo consider muself a youtuber but i guess i am. hopefully some young fellas will get some ideasnon places theh can go. i really dont beleive this will impact the area that much.

      @@wildernesskiwi8749 this is about the 5th video on UA-cam that gives away this spot, pretty obvious where it is now unfortunately. Every man and his dog goes in here now because of people putting it up on UA-cam. UA-cam is a easy way to ruin good spots for people who actually work hard to do their own research and find them and get into them.

    Strider - cool mate, but just remember that you’re leaving very little to the imagination with regards the location. Perhaps balance the self promotion with some respect for local hunters and trampers.

      Queenstown is a big place mate, and Id be really surprised if this area was impacted at all considering the difficulty to get up into that country. i apologise for potentially exposing one of your spots, if you want a new one just message me on instgram, Id be happy to accomodate.

Spoiler alert just because this guys the first to film it doesnt mean hes the only one whos hunted there. And old tough guy yarning about knocking teeth in i bet it wouldnt be you yah bitch. Both of you shut the fuk up and stop whinging

    This is the problem with Social Media, that is affecting hunting all over NZ. Before the days of FB and Forums and UA-cam, people used to have to work hard to find their hunting areas. Now thanks to videos like this, a lot of areas are buggered for hunting, absolutely flogged by every man and his dog. Every Aussie Hunter and every International Tourist with a gun or a bow knows about this place now.
    I get that a fairly inexperienced bloke like yourself that has had a bit of success, wants to tell the world about it, but please dont give away locations to the whole world. It does not achieve anything positive at all and pisses off a lot of local hunters that live in the area.

    • @strider_media
      @strider_media  6 місяців тому

      listen, mate. Here's my stance on this whole thing.
      -New Zealand has an excess of game animals, recreational hunting is not the reason spots are 'buggered,' and quite frankly for every buggered spot we have 10 places crawling with animals.
      -98% of the people who watched this were Kiwi, and I've had a lot of young blokes thank me for giving them the ability to find spots. I wish I had more. I'd send them to my best spots because I want and we need more hunters.
      -that spot already has loads of hunting pressure, and it hasn't changed at all since that video.
      - Queenstown is absolutely surrounded by public land. there is no shortage of spots to go and beyond that there is a wealth of private land hunting you can get access to.
      -Social media has created a new aspect to hunting I agree. But it's not going away anytime soon. the days of spots nobody knows about are gone. compared to the states and other parts of the world, we are still swimming in gold.

      If that’s your response then I am so disssapointed that there are people like you in our ranks.
      You have quite the know all, blow hard attitude about you and it comes across in your content.
      To suggest that increasing hunting exposure to an areas makes no difference, just shows an utter lack of knowledge and experience. You are just using that excuse while you shamelessly promote yourself
      Deliberately exposing local hunting areas to a UA-cam audience, using the reasoning that there are too many animals and we need more hunters, just indicates to me that you are not on our side and you might as well go and join Forrest & Bird and vote for the Greens Party.
      I would say you are going to make yourself well known and very unpopular with a lot of local hunters for all the wrong reasons. I certainly would not want to be in your boots.@@strider_media

      whos to say it isnt my local block? i get where your coming from man but new zealand is a big place. ive never been shy about sharing the areas i hunt and frankly its never made a difference. This area has alot of animals and is difficult to get to. if 0.5% of the people that watch this get up there id be very surprised.

      @@strider_media it clearly isn't your local block.. Because you put the location in your video title. Unlike the rest of your videos, clark boys shot a big red up there and a week later there's a heap of hunters coming out the woodwork and walking up there. It isn't that hard to access at all. Also, in your video you're on the south side of the south branch ridgeline facing the neighbouring farm land. Anything past the ridge top on the south side isn't doc hunting land. Your chamois was out of the block boundary, just a heads up for future.

    • @strider_media
      @strider_media  Рік тому +3

      Mate you can look on the doc website or any topo map, enough of that is public land that you can walk up that ridge. I'm not a poacher and Im very careful about not being one. If the clark boys, who are alot more famous than me showed it many years ago and there's still animals than I wouldn't be worried even slightly.

      @@strider_media it wasn't years ago.. Was about 6 months ago. They didn't see where they were... But they made it pretty obvious. Although not as obvious as you writing "queenstown" in your bloody video title. It's just common respect for the block and the locals wherever you hunt.. I just don't see the need of writing the location of where you hunt? I went into this block blind ten months ago, didn't know what as up there .. The first place I ever hunted. I worked hard to find the animals, as have all the other locals .. Stop advertising it so blatantly and respect why you've had so many comments ciriticising you for revealing your location. If this was your local block.. You wouldn't be telling everyone where it is. And that's a fact.
