With 12 days worth of food, hunting kit and survival gear I set off on an epic solo traverse of a West Coast mountain range of the Southern Alps of New Zealand. The hunt was filmed during the red deer rut, there were plenty of roaring stags found towards the end of the trip and a bunch of chamois encountered along the way!
Watch along as I bring you along for the adventure, showing you the epic mountain scenery I was surrounded by and the highs and lows of hunting public land here in New Zealand.
I hope you enjoy the video, we'd love a like and subscribe if you do! Thanks for watching 🍻

Absolute crackin video, ive said it before and i will say it again. "You guys make the best vids". I reckon that 8 pointer was fairly old. Tough call. Luv the colour of those tarns! Cheerz Boyz. 🦌

@bevanbolger7284 Год назад

Yea agreed on both counts - great video! And that stag was probably at his best 👍 always best to leave him if you aren't convinced though so good call 👏

@southislandriflewalkers5545 Год назад

Cheers mate we really appreciate it! Yea was a very tough decision to make haha… Thought long and hard about it but decided not to as I was looking for something with a few more points, it will definitely make a nice trophy for someone though! Was hoping for some good hunting karma too by leaving it but sadly never happened that trip 😅😂

Wow, incredible. I am 65 years old and have hunted New Zealand one time in 2010. Took a small Tahr with a bow. However, you are a real man. Unbelievable achievement. You guys do outstanding work with video and hunting. Keep it up, you are an inspiration. Kirk

Great vid, awesome footage. Loved the solo commentary. Can really relate to spending that much time alone in the Bush. Keep up the good work.

Big effort mate great country will dun

@carlegan1091 Год назад

Great video. Cheers :0))

@camstocky2019 Год назад

Camped at that Tarn at 10 minutes a great spot although its had some pressure the last few years since it featured in a youtube clip. Its pretty epic area for sure.

@southislandriflewalkers5545 Год назад

Yea it’s a pretty mint spot up there! Oh really can’t say I’ve seen it! Yea it’s a bit of a balancing act trying to show off our epic back country but also try and not give the spots away…

@darylkizer Год назад

Awesome scenery as always - loved it. A little surprised you didn't take that stag. If it were me and I'd been trudging across the mountains with all that kit for ten days, I think I'd have drawn a bead on him. Then again, that would be a once-in-a-lifetime trip for me.

@southislandriflewalkers5545 Год назад

Haha yea definitely came close to having a crack! In the end I was happy enough to just him, it was awesome to see!

@davidburns3480 Год назад

really gorgeous countryside

@davidburns3480 Год назад

nothing gets a hunters heartbeat going like a good roar

@mikeweaver6242 Год назад

Un frickin believe able Raddy , oh to be in my 20s again , ur a machine. I'm not sure I could have passed up that pretty 8pt tho. Awesome vid man.

@southislandriflewalkers5545 Год назад

Cheers mate! Haha yea definitely wasn’t an easy decision to make… 😅

@user-br7of1qu7p 5 месяцев назад

Choppers must've worked that country hard eh..

@quantumcabo Год назад

Wicked solo Raddy amazing, you’ve certainly done the hard yards with that adventure truly awesome country!

@southislandriflewalkers5545 Год назад

Cheers Scott! Yea was absolutely stoked with how the trip went, covered some pretty epic country!

@rosscollins8040 8 месяцев назад

Wow what an epic hike the south island is amazing. How heavy was your pack for 12 days of food

@southislandriflewalkers5545 8 месяцев назад

Cheers! Not sure maybe around 35kg!

@thegrundinis4199 Год назад

Great scenery up on the tops there mate! Gutted for you losing your footage!! It’s something that only happens once if your wise 😂

@southislandriflewalkers5545 Год назад

Haha yup fingers crossed!😂😅

@ryaninstone9272 Год назад

Great vid! Can I ask what backpack you are using?

@southislandriflewalkers5545 Год назад

The Tatonka bison 90 + 10 L , they are an awesome pack, virtually bombproof!

@HillDogTV Год назад

Feel ya on the Data loss... Atleast your once in a lifetime New zealand living hunting stint wasnt DROPPED on a harddrive.... which broke... im still gutted. Keep up the adventures an the footage takes care of itself ive learnt

@southislandriflewalkers5545 Год назад

Haha gutted mate… Yea it’s a bit of shame but like you said just gotta get back out there and film some more!

@darylmeikle4019 Год назад

Why don’t you do a video on all of your gear that you take on your trip? And what you like and dislike about any gear.

@southislandriflewalkers5545 Год назад

Yea we’ve got a few ideas in the pipeline for doing a “what’s in my pack” kind of video so keep your eyes peeled!

@turbostunt321 Год назад

Nice edit! Watch are you use to film?

@southislandriflewalkers5545 Год назад

Cheers mate! We use a few different cameras but the main camera we use for all the animal footage is a Nikon P1000

@Speedy.Frog. Год назад

I love it! Do you ever have an issue with the drone scaring off deer? It seems any time send mine up for a look around, I never see anything…

@southislandriflewalkers5545 Год назад

We're really selective about when and where we fly it, if we're wanting to hunt an area we don't put it up! Definitely spooks anything within earshot

@chrisrea7347 Год назад

I really enjoyed this video and the quality was amazing. Fantastic country and beyond me now at age 69 with a crook right knee. I think you made the right decision leaving that 8 pointer. Well done and I cant wait to watch the group hunt video.

@davidburns3480 Год назад

you must be tough - just one slip and one broken ankle and you would be in real trouble

@ScottLewislovesyou Год назад

ive watched a few of your vids. i would love to see some (google maps) map links to see exactly where you want

@southislandriflewalkers5545 Год назад

Sorry mate we don't like to share or name the spots we visit! We don't try all that hard to hide where we go if you know the areas, but alot of time and effort goes into route finding and exploring to find these spots.

@ScottLewislovesyou Год назад

@@southislandriflewalkers5545 ahhh yeaa thats cool.

@trailridesnzsamkinney9283 Год назад

What size pack are u using in this vid Cheers

@southislandriflewalkers5545 Год назад

It’s a 90 + 10 L Tatonka pack, they are an awesome pack, virtually bomb proof and can handle up to 50kgs of weight!

@trailridesnzsamkinney9283 Год назад

Would you say there are fairly versatile. In the terms that you can kinda of shrink or confine them down for smaller hunts as well like only a few nights?
