good stuff bro! bugger about the miss, thats some nice country up behind those pinnacles, good chance of a nice 10 0r 12ptr popping out there too

[@hardantlerhunting9691]

Thanks, mate.

[@nakisteelo4761]

Good on you for having a look. 👍

[@hardantlerhunting9691]

Thanks 👍

Hard luck Stanley glad you went over and checked you’re quite right you never know till you check and search
Better to miss than gut shot and lose an animal to an agonizing slow death
That’s why I prefer bush hunting you get close I like your honesty 👍

[@hardantlerhunting9691]

Thanks mate. 👍

Hard luck there mate, but hey that's hunting and it happens to all of us. Love that area too, always had a soft spot for the Aorangi range

[@hardantlerhunting9691]

Thanks. I haven't connected with it yet as I always hunt the remutaka range. It will come though 👌🙂

[@salmonidninja3540]

@@hardantlerhunting9691 nothing wrong with the Remutakas either

[@hardantlerhunting9691]

@salmonidninja3540 agreed, but I found after the 1080 drop the deer numbers dropped significantly.

[@salmonidninja3540]

@@hardantlerhunting9691 that's the truth 😞

Tent looks interesting. Not enough space for me, as I’ve got the dog. I’ve hunted that spot a bit, but never seen a fallow that far down. They’re bound to be there, but I’ve never seen them.

[@hardantlerhunting9691]

True, Its my second time in the range so learning it. Seems the deer come out of the native and feed. Thanks

[@stevefull76]

I enjoy your vids just wondered where you sourced the tent from thanks.

[@hardantlerhunting9691]

Thanks, purchased direct from Millets Outdoors in the UK. Landed for around $350 NZD.

@@hardantlerhunting9691 Thanks, just to confirm is it a Bobcat 2 or 1 can only find the 1 version for sale? Thanks

[@hardantlerhunting9691]

@stevefull76 1 sorry. I got that wrong

[@MsSexymanbeast]

Long shot ! Better luck next time
I've been to that pond I few times :) beautiful views and a few good stags around that area

[@hardantlerhunting9691]

Thanks mate. Nice spot yea but a fair clip for an overnighter

[@bomblifenewzealand]

That was crack up bro 😂 youll get em next time.

[@hardantlerhunting9691]

Hope so!

[@rockchesterman3065]

You wouldn't want to be out here tonight, you'd be blown home.

[@hardantlerhunting9691]

The coast was windy but not the ranges. The freezing line last night was low. Beautiful harsh country
