This is a job, not a hobbie,,Animals are shot for food or sold. Deer were introduced to New Zealand for hunting, they are not native to New Zealand. If you don't like hunting then do not watch this vid.

Unbelievable how much ground you can Cover. Makes me appreciate the few I have managed to shoot.

Awesome job guys, hard and fast! Looking after our forest, not all heros wear capes. Love the content would be cool if we coukd get the headset sound

@@obsessionoutdoorsnz Hi, yea with buck shot and red dot scope, 1-1 not magnified.

When you get out of the chopper after you've shot, are you recovering the deer or taking the tail?

Gday Les, we recover the deer for sale or for the freezer, thats why we use ropes/ strops , ,,, to lift the deer out .

What are you constantly fiddling with on that shotty and what injured your finger?

Pilot wanted gun set with cartridge out of breach when not in use ,and the gun jammed after shooting first deer, cut finger trying to un jam it. Pilot just playing it safe as this was our first time working together, some shooters in the past with diffrent pilots have blowen holes in bubble and floor cause they playing with trigger while leaving gun loaded with safety off,

Excellent work,did you enjoy this job and the pilot in the last video on the R22Alex lived down the road in Murupara at the time he was doing deer recovery for mountain range venison,we’re you with him choice video NZMEAT EATER.
