Last month the stars aligned and we were able to help out a young bowhunter, Oliver, with some arrows.
We hadn’t met him but receiving this thank you card from Oliver lets us know he’s of good character. Manners will take you a long way in life. I wish there were more people like Oliver. Good hunting

Kevin has a great article in the latest NZ Hunter magazine about recovering your game after the shot. The information is drawn from over 300 big game recoveries Kevin has been on. A must read for new bowhunters. The June/July Issue on out now (Issue 113).

One of the most overlooked things in archery is also one of the smallest, your nocks. Over time they can be damaged, crack or spread. The latter will affect accuracy. Tuning a customers bow today the terrible tear in the second pic turned into a near perfect one in the last photo by just changing out the nock for a new one. Same arrow and nothing done to the bow. Nocks are cheap, misses can be very costly

Kevin spent the long weekend downloading 60SD cards his game cameras had collected over the last five years. This one is a favourite. Three sika stags post rut.

Kevin captured this image while saddle hunting sika last week. It was a 16 yard shot through both lungs.

Last week Kevin shot his first red for several years. This well conditioned hind only went 27 yards after a front on shot. As you can see Kevin was really happy how the hunt unfolded.

Kevin with a sika hind he shot last week from 24 yards. He had a great trip away shooting three deer. Kevin’s Sitka camo did a great job of concealing him in the beech forest.
