New Zealand Hunting - Free Range Hunts

Himalayan Tahr and European Chamois

Mike Freeman's Kiwi Safaris has long been known for the high quality of it's free range, fairchase alpine hunts for Himalayan Tahr and Chamois. During the last decade we have put in place, rigorous long term game management strategies on the ranches we hunt exclusively. Our aim is to develop the finest free range, fairchase New Zealand hunting available. Hunting that compares to any of the great hunting adventures, available in the World. We are now achieving this with our Himalayan Tahr hunts.

Careful selective culling and controlled take of mature bulls, has created the finest Tahr hunting available. You can see up to 100 animals per day plus many trophy bulls. Our Chamois hunts are right up there also, but the nature of the species, makes it difficult to manage to the same level as the Tahr. We have a good base female population building, which holds the resident bucks in the area. The increase in numbers continues attract more of the large, mature transient bucks, particularly during the rut.

All our Tahr and Chamois properties are fully accessible by four wheel drive vehicle. Sometimes in the winter we may use a helicopter for transport, but all hunting is done on foot. The hunting is spot and stalk, so good binoculars are essential. Our guides carry spotting scopes at all times. Shots can be out to 300 yards, so a good flat shooting weather proof rifle in the 7MM / .300 Magnums are ideal. Accommodation can be in our hunting lodge situated in the high mountains or at one of ranch houses close by the hunting area, with full facilities and excellent meals, it is ideal for hunters and their families. We customize every hunt to meet our client's every need so contact us for a quote.

Free Range Fallow Bucks

We have some superb free range Fallow deer areas which are producing some excellent trophies. The Fallow bucks elusive nature means he can often live in small areas of brush or forest, feeding out onto nearby crops or pasture, similar to the elusive Whitetail of North America. Limited take of mature trophy bucks has ensured we can maintain high trophy standards. Hunting is spot and stalk, on the bush fringes usually in the morning and evenings. The 'rut' is an exciting time to hunt with the vocal, aggressive bucks challenging each other, while keeping harems in tact. The terrain is rolling hills, so a flat shooting rifle is preferred.

Accommodation is usually at a ranch house near the hunting area. There are full facilities and excellent meals. New Zealand Fallow Stag can easily be combined with any of our other hunts. Contact us for a quote on a Fallow stag hunt or as part of a combination hunt.

Recently we acquired the rights to hunt two new properties which arguably have the largest trophy free range fallow trophies in New Zealand.
