Leica Pro Hunter Philippe Jaeger and Per Agerlund Jacobsen went hunting for tahr in the Godley River Valley in New Zealand’s Alps. Dirt, gravel, rain and even snow are constant companions and the animals can usually only be detected from a great distance. After five days of hunting (including eight hours of stalking per day in extremely difficult terrain), the two hunters finally got lucky.

 
Interesting video. The "red camo" didn't seem to be an issue.

Preparing for the adventure of a lifetime. Looking forward to my 2026 Africa hunt with Van Wijk Safaris in South Africa.

What a great way to kick off our 2025 hunting season in South Africa.

This beautiful Impala ram was taken at just over 300 yards, took a few steps and toppled over.

We are looking forward to the next week and a half of hunting with our first client of the year.

Do you have any more copies of African Dangerous Game Cartridges, Author: Pierre van der Walt ? I'm looking for one. Thanks for any information, John [redacted]
