Tahr Hunting in NZ

G'Day Fella's,

Not sure if any of you have hunted Tahr (pronounced "Tar") but it is a great hunt!
Bloody hard work (the Hardest Work I have EVER Done.......Read that again!), in some stunning country!
You need to be very well prepared and knowledgeable, otherwise this country will Kill You!!!
FYI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q4p63DLWMUk

Also, watch the subsequent videos, after this one, for some more videos on this.

Doh!

G'day Homer,
Glad you enjoyed it, as a young bloke growing up in NZ I hunted Tahr and Chamois around the West Coast and Canterbury a few times. Long time ago now, but still have very fond memories of those days. Always had good luck around Adams Flat for Chamois. Did they tell you about hunting Wallaby along the "bottoms"? Thanks for the youtube links from you and pomemax also, some good memories.
