great site, I was in NZ back in 93, my wife and I had the best time, we were treated and greeted as old friends, We did some crossings around LK Taupo. I was intrigued with the mountain country and the hunting there. I picked up some books by an author, Phil Holden. I have read those books a million times. Since then I met a guy up here in AK who was a culler, great stories. thanks DG

Hunted for NZFS for a while in 1968-9 before meathunting for a few years more. Hunted with Jim Warren, Chris Satherley, Terry Lambert and someone called the prisoner. Great days. Have a number of good photo's of those years.

Changed address earlier this year. I'm now living in Arthurs Pass. Good move, but getting older feel the cold more and more. I hear there's plenty on deer, chamois and tahr about, but my legs are too stuffed to walk them hills anymore. Cheers to all.

I shot wallaby's in the Hunter Ranges,Base camp was Kelceys Bush my area included Mount Studholm and beyond.

I prefered being a loner.

Farley Hoy I remember meeting briefly?
Field officer, a great bloke,Name?(sorry,forgotten).

Max Kershaw was the Senior Field
Officer.

I was on contract basis only.

Bush hunting I found gave by far the best talley numbers.

My rifle is a Parker Hale Sports P14 303 with a modified Le Enfield 10 shot magazine and a Pecar 3 to 7 varipower scope.

Yes still capable of downing the odd red skin.

Period: winter 1956.

This was a great build up for my 1956/1957 summer season into the mighty Landsborough River block.
Deer,tahr and chamoi were the quarry. However bedtime is calling me. So is my dear wife.

I will continue sometime in the near future I promise.

I was a 'culler' in 62/63. My field officer was Jack Wildemonth ably supported by Paul (Horn or Waghorn). My partner was Chris McGrath.
It would be good to hear from anyone from these years who may remember Chris or me.

Hi can anyone advise how someone can actually become a licenced culler as i have a friend here who has lots of experience and is qualified and has heard that NZ are struggling to find cullers.

Thanks
