" I once had a discussed NZ hunting guide (PC) tell me that an elderly client of his and he, once flew around and fired 23 shots, before he finally shot a Chamois".
Now this was/is great for the chopper operators but it ain't Hunting!




I agree.

I say Bad Luck! You can't have your cake and eat it to!!!





True. But there is still real huunting opportunities for the elderly, unfit or infirm. Hochsitz or High seat hunting is an obvious one.

I'm too unfit to hunt the high tops for tahr and chamois, though a chamois is one of my dream trophies. It is also one of Europe's pinnacle trophies (pun intended) and reason is the terrain and fitness required.

Cheating by shooting from a helicopter or spotting from a chopper and then getting out to shoot does not interest me at all. I'd rather go without if that is what it takes, or actually get a bit fitter and do it the right way.
