Part 2, Fiordland NZ - Wapiti ballot block, George river, 1st period. 2019. Second chance bull.

My first time finally hunting the Wapiti in Fiordland NZ
Getting close to the action is the name of the game.
A Wapiti bull comes into 3m of me …watch the story unfold.

What are those green slippers/booties you had on around camp?

[@kingstoncowboy01]

They are great for around camp….They are gubba boots….look them up.

[@kingstoncowboy01]

Watch my finger come on and off as the stag comes in ....13:55...I decided not to shoot him when I saw him coming in, had finger on trigger just in case it all went bad and charged me

[@brynthurlow9758]

Hey I was just wondering what cameras you use for videoing your hunts?

[@kingstoncowboy01]

On this hunt used the sx60, Olympus omd 5 mark 2 and an action camera.
Cheers bud

[@kingstoncowboy01]

You're probably right...cross breed - hybrid ....but I'll still call them a Wap... also thats what we call them in Fiordland.....lucky I don't call them a moose...lol
