Cheers mate, glad you're enjoying them!

I was surprised when he got up as well! Probably wasn't going far but thought it'd be best to put another one in him. He wasn't in great nick, not sure if he would've lasted the winter!

I'd imagine Cronin glacier was a bit bigger back then!

Mate that's got to be one of the nicest comments we've had. Thanks so much for the support, it's awesome to get such nice feedback from our vids. Hopefully we can get out there filming more 🍻

Glad you enjoyed it mate! He sure did, we're just putting the finishing touches on the video now 👌 should be out in a couple weeks

Cheers mate!

Thanks mate! We're pretty lucky down here 👌

He's an absolute pack horse

Thanks mate, such a cool route

Good effort! It's a pretty epic place, I can see why you went back so many times

Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed it 🍻

Cheers boys! Bloody oath get out there!

Cheers Tony! Always appreciate your support 🙏

Cheers Rob!

Too right mate, what it's all about!

Cheers boys!

Cheers Bob! Haha we definitely missed it as well! The old 4 ingredient stir fry goes hard 😂

Cheers mate, it's one hell of a spot!

Gidday Rob, we remember you! Sorry for waking you up so late hahah... We went past Lake minchin on a different trip earlier this year whilst filming another vid. Brought along a rod after hearing how easy it was for you...didn't manage a bite hahah

@@southislandriflewalkers5545 Glad to hear you guys still remember us! I was still awake when you guys turned up, but I've passed on the apology to my English mate and he has humbly accepted haha. He was most impressed with you guys and will send a great report to Her Majesty about your exploits. He looks forward to perhaps your skill and expertise becoming helpful on a future mission lol. Sorry to hear you didn't have luck with a trout at Lake Minchin. I've been their 4 times and their was once I didn't get a bite, the other 3 times was great success fishing. Check out John Spragg RU-vid channel, he has been going up fishing to Lake Minchin for years. These days he uses an electric mountain bike to make quick headway up the poulter valley.

You won't regret it!

Forgot to ask boys , what's the drone you use ?

Thanks mate, appreciate the comment. We run the DJI mini 2 👍

Glad we can bring you along for the ride then mate! I'd say our knees might be the death of us down the line...

I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw him! Epic!

I can see why you kept going back, it's a pretty awesome walk!

It's such a cool place! You should, I'm sure you won't regret it!

Thanks mate! Good to know, will be a few trips into the surrounding area I'm sure

Too right mate, it's a simpler life out there!

Too right mate, I think I did the bull a favor as well the poor bugger!

Cheers mate! We're fizzing to share raddys trip, it covers some incredible country

@@southislandriflewalkers5545 We don't know how lucky we are to live here.

It's a pretty cool place!

Cheers fellas!

Raddy took it very literally hahah

Might want to hold on to that comment, I'll prove you wrong in a couple videos time 😂

@@southislandriflewalkers5545 well see

There sure is, we're just finishing the video now! Should be up next week sometime 👍

Cheers mate! Its a sako .308, A7 series

Interesting! I've heard of judas goats being used in control methods but didn't know they tried it with tahr! Cheers for the tip hahaha

Cheers Brent, glad we could bring you along! The drone is a Mavic mini 2, we carry spare batteries and power banks to keep them all charged! Depends on how long we're going for but the filming gear has definitely made them a bit heavier!

Yeah he wasn't in a good way, you can see how frail he was in the clip of him walking up the scree!

Yes he did, I’d have put him out of misery too, wouldn’t have bothered with any meat.

Completely understand your point mate, and it's pretty well validated. But if the tahr culls have proven anything it's that they're in charge when push comes to shove. We're going to have to find a more collaborative way of managing our game species, the lake Sumner deer control operation is a fantastic example. Hunter led conservation that benefits everyone involved 👍

Hahah I wish I could say we didn't 😂 you'll see one pretty soon if you keep following the channel

Only time I’ve ever seen ya miss was Mitch 1st attempt with the spear gun in your boys trip to Stewart island 😂

We don't have one yet mate but appreciate the thought 🙏 if you want to support us we've got some merch that we get printed every couple of months 👌
