New Zealand - Red Deer in the Rainforest

Not much about New Zealand on this admireable forum, so I thought I would rectify that in a small way - (I recognise a couple of kiwi members on here too...)
A few photo's I have uploaded to the net - no big trophies here just some shots of hunting NZ....



Young red stag roared in to about 10 metres, taken with a Brno ZG47 in 7x57mm



.30/30 Winchester 94 made in 1952, still going hard...



Typical hunting country in the South island - you can go up the mountain or stay at the bottom. Not much in the middle...



Caught in the open....my old Sako in 25/06. Wonderful deer rifle, but a tad heavy - or so I thought. One I always regretted selling.





Fallow deer as well...some pretty good fallow hunting - if you can get them in open. Fallow deer in the bush can be a trial with all the prancing from side to side....



I'd already gutted him before I thought of a photo...



When you climb up out of the bush over the treeline, this is what the tops look like.
