Day 4 was Arapawa Ram day and I knew this we be my last time hunting on this trip to Manuka Point . As you can imagine , I was filled with mixed emotions not wanting this trip to another piece of God's country to end . Up the hill and The Red Stags were out today big time . We had seen some...

Day 3 was a second Fallow day due to the available time and a nice offer from Don for me to take a blonde Fallow deer . Basically same hunt again but we walked deeper into the point and eventually encountered a good buck . Clean shot and a great time with Will my young PH .

At lunch , Don Patterson offered to take me to a neighbors place across the river for a goose hunt. Don's good friend , a local cattle/sheep buyer joined us for the hunt . We used layout blinds and carefully brushed them with vegetation Don had cut earlier. The geese were visible in the river...

After a nice meal of lamb from the Patterson flock we ate the second incredible Julie Patterson homemade desert! We toasted some New Zealand wine and hit the bed . Visions of fallow deer danced in my head and i was tempted to sneak into the skinning shed for a late night look at my stag...

After a a great meal prepared by Julie Patterson we enjoyed a restful night in the beautiful Manuka Point Lodge . The guest rooms directly face the snow capped range of the southern alps and are more than comfortable . My wife liked the luxurious , big rooms. At first light we headed up the...

Thanx Marius , I take it you agree with Victor.

I appreciate you taking the time to reply as a South African. I am surprised you are the only one.

I would like to hear opinions from some South Africans On the current state of the country.

Center left! Cool pic!

30-06 is fine choice utililizing lighter bullets on deer/hogs and 180 grain for elk. 300 win mag or 300 win short mag gives you a little more reach and shoots flatter with more power but a little more recoil.

Looking forward to hunting with you in 2019!!!!!

You are like me. I went to Africa and wanted to go back. I used the info I learned on this forum to book a hunt with one of the sponsors here . I learned a lot and expect I will have an even better trip. Regards and welcome from Montana! My mom was from Lakeview!

Thank you Philip for being willing to participate in this film. I was somewhat surprised to see hunters portrayed in a reasonable way considering CNN aired this film. In my opinion Philip is a credit to hunters everywhere. You are a thoughtful And reasonable man . I stalk, I hunt out of blinds...
