New Zealand in May
Most visitor hunters seem to go guided (and therefore have a resident contact) or hunt with a NZ buddy. I have taken US visitors on hunts and they have used my rifle which is perfectly legal if hunting together. Bringing your own rifle here on a solo hunt can be tricky. But reach out if I...- Kiwi

Hello from England

2026 bears
Enjoyed reading this thread. I am flying to Montana tomorrow for my first spring bear hunt. Will be happy to just see a bear, but if I can shoot an adult bear of any size I will be happy!- Kiwi

Utah fees increase: keep applying?
That's the push I needed. Application underway. -
UTAH PRICE INCREASE
I thought I was out but having second thoughts! I would really like to explore Utah for a week or two with a tag in my pocket. My plan was to draw a general deer tag so have been buying points, I now have 5 points. And 2-3 points each for goat, limited deer, limited elk which aren't worth...- Kiwi

Average age of the hunt talk crowd.
I turned 56 last week. But I’m not letting the old in.- Kiwi

Future hunting trips
I've got a spreadsheet with a rolling 6 years of western hunts planned for my son and I :) Seems pointless to list the hunts as my plan changes continually. But I have enough points to hunt deer, pronghorn, bear and elk that I don't plan to get bored.- Kiwi

New Zealand Roar Hunt 2024
No fences for many miles. I passed up 25+ stags on public land, but mostly 6 - 10 pointers. I left a small 12 for my mate to shoot, he was happy.- Kiwi

Few photos from my 2026 roar hunt, same block. Great roaring action. No shooters seen, except for a camp meat hind. Now its time to see if the fallow deer are croaking.- Kiwi

Montana Draw
It’s true I didn’t know the exact question to ask, does anybody when it comes to Montana :) but got the answer. Thanks again. -
Montana Draw
Thanks, I don’t know you could to split / return the big game combo. Good to know. -
Montana Draw
Thanks guys. I guess my plan wont work as I cannot apply for a general elk combo and general deer combo separately in the same year. -
Montana Draw
I think I understand the MT application process but have been looking into how I can apply for archery elk and have rifle deer as a backup. I am buying bonus points in MT for elk (I have 5) and plan to apply for an archery elk permit. I know I have to draw a General Elk or Big Game Combo... -
No Country for Old Men
A fantastic movie. That scene was the first time I had seen pronghorn and I immediately decided I wanted to hunt them. PS that was before I had seen the rest of the movie :)- Kiwi

MT Preference pts
The key to learning the MT system is to unlearn all you know about all other points systems!
