Another quality vid fella. Hard case seeing Pigs, Goats & Deer all so close to each other when you panned the camera. Keep up the great work. Cheers
Cheers mate. Yeah I thought it was pretty cool capturing that. Thanks again 👍👍
Where exactly in NZ is this hunting area located? Is it also possible for foreigners to hunt there?
Hi, this section of land in the video is private but if you’re ever in NZ let me know we could organise a hunt 👍👍
Located in Marlborough. 👍😁
*Controlled Recoil - NZ Hunting* Bravo well done, thank-you sir for taking the time to bring us along. GOD Bless.
Thanks, great to see you in the comments as always. Stay safe 👍👍
Well cobber that was another good hunt. You have every right to be happy with your self Tom. As always thank you and stay safe mate.🤠
Cheers mate, thanks again. 😁👍
I watched the one when you talked about the wind.
Would you do one where you talk to your shooter,making wind calls and moa corrections at the same time?
Example, wind left to right, 5 mph hold left 1 moa
Different shots, would like to hear those calls and corrections.
Thanks for sharing
Hi, thanks for your support and feedback. I’ll certainly add that in next time we are working in teams 👍
Hey mate, where did you purchase your night vision kit from? Another great video, cheers!
Hi it’s from OneLeaf. If you look up their website you can buy it directly from them.
If you get a couple of mates all wanting it I could possibly get you a discount code 👍
Beautiful country and excellent content. Thank you.
Thanks bud. Yes very lucky in a place like this and for your support. Cheers 👍
Awesome vids Tom, thank you so much for sharing. Just clicked Subscribed no doubt. Can you please share some info on the bino specs that you've using. Would be really keen to get something lightweight and compact as well. Thanks heaps.
Hi thank you for the support. I really appreciate it. Are you taking about standard binoculars or night vision ones?
Cheers
Standard one please. The one you can zoom in and out in long distance. Thanks
Hi, the standard binoculars I’m using are fixed power 10x42 Leupolds.
The OneLeaf NV 400 binoculars can be used in Day time or nighttime and can zoom in and out.
Other than that I use my large zoom camera.
Cheers.
More talking than hunting
Cheers for the feedback, thanks for watching 👍
@@controlledrecoil-nzhuntingignore him mate your videos are great
I like hearing you explain your process, it’s a master class from a marksman and I want to learn. I really appreciate learning from you, It’s great just watching shooting but it’s a higher level of excellence to also be able to explain that process, not many are very good at that , but I find you excellent. Thanks for making the effort
Great videos you guys have made, I am wondering what load and projectiles you are using Thankyou in advance
Your videos sure make me want to come across the pond and come hunt NZ.
Hi, well if you’re ever over here get in touch, we could try work out a hunting mission. Thanks for watching 👍
Good to see the Chukar ...are there good coveys in that area ?
Hi, yes there are several groups. There numbers fluctuate a bit but overall there seems to be more around the last few years. Beautiful birds.
Cheers 👍👍
I watched your previous video a couple of times just to soak in the nice scenery. I live in Canada and get various cuts of lamb imported from NZ. The lamb's has very mild flavor. How does wild goat meat compare in terms of flavor? Thank you.
Hi, goats is a mild meat also and not dissimilar but it’s very lean compared to lamb. The Billy’s however are certainly not mild in many cases and sometimes not really eatable depending on the age.
Thanks for the support 👍
So, the wild goats are invasive? No limits? Must be good eating. Hogs? Really bad. In parts of the U.S. it is an epidemic.
Hi yes every mammal we hunt here is introduced with no predators so it’s up to hunters both professional and recreational to control numbers. It’s probably one of the best hunting situations in the world.
Pigs are definitely a problem here too.
I did hear there a some big problems with
Pigs over there. Cheers 👍👍
Do you put trail cameras on ya bait piles? Spot the monsters of the night 🌙 What calibre are you using on this video ?
Hey mate, i actually haven’t but I probably should. It would be interesting to see what’s lurking around. 308 for this one.
Cheers 👍👍
Always an entertaining watch Tom, good stuff. ps. Great shot off the knee at that range mate, nice.
Thanks mate. Yeah that one put a smile on my face ha. Looking forward to your next vid. Cheers 👍
Great video champ , r you using match ammo for this hunt?
Wow great video! Awesome hunt with many different wildlife species! The scenery is just beautiful where you hunt! I have never seen anything like it personally! Thanks for posting it! I do have to ask what is with the shooting of all of the goats? Are they a pest there or causing some type of damage?
Thanks mate, much appreciated.
Every mammal we hunt in NZ is introduced and with no natural predators it’s up to hunters, both recreational and professional to control numbers. We have to control numbers to a manageable level to avoid damage to our native ecosystem. It’s a unique situation as every time we harvest and animal we help our environment. I do believe there is a balance between having these animals and a thriving native environment but it’s must be managed. So yes with goats, they breed fast so it’s important to keep on top of numbers. We eat them as well as utilise them for food for our working dogs. Cheers 👍👍
I live on a small island off the west coast of Scotland. Introduced animals over the years have
caused havoc with the bird life and the land. Rabbits were introduced and have destroyed vast areas of the fragile topsoil as well as being a hazard to cattle because of the burrowing. Somebody had the bright idea of starting a mink farm in the late 60s. When the price of mink collapsed a lot of them were let loose. Somebody else inroduced ferrets to control the rabbits. This decimated the bird and hen population. The latest act of ignorance about 10 years was somebody who couldn't be bothered taking their hedgehog pets back to the mainland and let them loose. They have trashed the population of nesting birds as they have no natural predator. You couldn't make it up. @@controlledrecoil-nzhunting
@@controlledrecoil-nzhunting A thriving environment will have plenty of broadleaf and some anisotome and the root plants favoured by pigs. Which didn't happen in most of that country even during the latter commercial recovery and culling (back when the area was being done by ground shooters. ? Is trail boss readily available?
Yes many of that is similar to the situation here as we have many introduced predators that were let go to control rabbits that really prefer birds. I have been a professional trapper for stoats, possums, ferrets and feral cats along with a few others. The depth of the problem goes to another level with these animals.
@@controlledrecoil-nzhunting Its likely a situation of those predators not passing up poultry (& reptiles, insects etc, which they take a huge toll on) to get a rat, rabbit etc.
The birds etc also suffer from the enormous modification of habitat by ungulates etc. Strenuously denied by "hunters" whose in depth knowledge (just watch TV experts, GAC'ers etc) and effectiveness has resulted in NZ now having more pests & damage than any time since the 1960's, possibly since their introduction.
If on contract, the effectiveness of trapping for useful control would be rapidly apparent if a successful operator, it simply can't compete with poison. The traps, shooting & dogs come into their own for eradication completion. They have an essential place, it's simply seldom well applied. Including by so called professionals, DoC & Tahr come to mind.
Love the videos mate 👍🏼 keep em coming. Have you put a clip up with the kit you use? Id be keen to see a detailed video on your equipment used
Hey thanks mate. Really appreciate it. Will be putting a gear video up soon. Cheers 👍👍
Do you have stickers of your logo or hats? Thanks! Keep up the great videos! ✌️
Hey mate, I’m in the process of sorting some merch and stickers. Really want to get it right so I’m checking out the best options. Want quality and would like some good practical gear that people can also wear on the hill. I Really appreciate your support,
What type/style of gear would you prefer?
Hoodies? Jackets? Caps/ bennies etc?
Thanks again 👍👍
@controlledrecoil-nzhunting I would buy a hat and a sweatshirt if you make them, but I really wanted a few stickers, preferably round, maybe around 2 - 3 inch diameter of your logo, for my rifle stock and hard case! So if you make stickers, do a weatherproof vinyl type that will last.
And my advice would be to start small with the merch thing... stickers, hats, t-shirts, and sweatshirts, just to see how it goes before you invest in things like backpacks or bino-packs.
And if you can, reach out to other TH-cam channels who have merch that you like to see where they are getting theirs made. They might not want to tell you, but it's worth a try.
Take care, good luck, and thanks for the reply! ✌️
I enjoy watching your videos! Would like to see a video with a rundown on the rifles you use!
Thanks for your support. I’ll do a video on that soon. Cheers 👍😁
Nice shooting as normal budd👌
Amazing to c all those different animals all together on the same hull ah?
Is that ur property that u hunt on??
Stay safe budd 🤙
Thanks mate. Yes it just seemed like one of those evenings where everything was out in force.
Yeah it’s our family farm. Cheers 👍
@@controlledrecoil-nzhunting ah awesome u r very blessed mate I have 50 yrs of hunting experience an 30yrs of glowing references from landowners whose properties I hunted up far nth Qld an been on the sunny coast for over 20yrs an can’t score a place to hunt cause of previous people doing the wrong thing!!
Nice work mate, very entertaining. From rural NSW Australia.
Thanks mate. Appreciate you taking the time to watch 👍😁
Can I work on your farm?
Hi, sorry mate we have it pretty well covered at the moment but if anything changes I’ll keep you in mind 👍
What kind of gear do you use, gun, optics and ammo?!? What is the "standard" range when hunting. We seldom shoot beyond 200 in Sweden. Most animals , i think, is harvested between 50 and 80 meters. Nice film!
Greetings from Sweden!
Hi, I mainly have Tikka rifles as my primary choice but also have plenty of others.
This one was a 308. I use both high powered and subsonic ammunition in this rifle. The 168gr ELD-M at 2530fps and the SubX 190gr at 1050fps. 16” barrel.
Element Optics 2-16x50 HDLR. Well our ranges vary a lot. I’d say most people in this type of terrain would shoot out to 300yards reasonably regularly but some will regularly shoot to 500-600yards. Of course you can usually get closer.
Depends on the terrain and opportunities. In heavy bush areas I know people the have never shot past 150.
Thanks for your support 👍👍
I use an Arken 4-16x50 for my longer range rifle, Sauer 100, in 6.5x55. But my gunsmith/scopedealer also sells Element, so I've had the chance to pick/feel and look at both brands. Havent got a Tikka myself, but they are liked the most sold brand i Sweden. Got a Sako and some other brands. But we got a limited amount that we are allowed to own. But u can always put them in your wifes name!😄
@Lazlo81 Yes I rate the Arken scopes too, they seem to be very reliable for the price. I have several 6.5x55s , such a great cartridge and very underrated.
Mean vids as always! What’s the minimum grain you’d use to target decent sized hogs? Cheers!
Mr Recoil I think you may have missed this guy's question
Thanks Trent, I had missed answering this question , my mistake. Cheers mate 👍👍
Sweet hunt and video as usual captain!
Thanks mate. Congratulations on your shooting competition 👍👍
What rifle do you use. It seems pretty good
Hi, I was using a 308 Tikka T3 in this video. Cheers
@@controlledrecoil-nzhunting where did you buy it?
That was fun! A lot going on up on the hill that night
Yeah it certainly kicks off that time of year for animals. You been out hunting at all ?Where you watching from brother ?
@@controlledrecoil-nzhunting I haven’t done a lot… I’m in Wellington
@@cowboy2180 Ah nice one.
I see you recently subscribed. Thanks for the support mate. I’m glad you’re enjoying the videos.
Shot eh Tom! Quality bro.
Cheers mate, thanks again 👍👍
Do you take any meat out mate?
Hi, yes I certainly do. Putting food on the table is one of the main reasons I go hunting. I try to utilise as much as possible. That being said controlling pig numbers is a must and we loose thousands of dollars to pig damage every year. Although I took meat from the best of these animals, in this case the main goal was to control numbers. Most of my hunts are focused on recovering meat either for ourselves, friends and our working dogs. However as you can see in the video we have had a tough year of pigs so this was priority.
Cheers 👍👍
Thanks mate, great video brother.
Cheers mate, appreciate it 👍👍
Flecktern camo always found it the best out there
Hi, yes it’s pretty effective in most situations . Cheers 👍👍
What load you use subs
Hi Matthew,
Thanks for your support of the channel.
Reloading can be dangerous. I can’t take responsibility for how you use this information. Please be aware of the dangers and to approach these loads with caution.
This data has been obtained and tested in my rifles but every rifle is different. Be cautious. I recommend reading a credible reloading manual before you attempt any reloading activities. Your safety is the main priority.
With subsonic rounds you start several grains higher and work down (opposite to high powered rounds). Make sure every round has cleared the barrel and make sure they are stable before using a suppressor to avoid the risk of baffle strike. Be cautious of misfires as they maybe hang-fires (going off seconds after).
I crimp my subsonic rounds to help with the neck tension as I’ve found it reduces velocity variations. So seated to the Cannelure on the subX 190gn.
I shoot a thick cardboard box at 50yards to test stability - without suppressor first.
Look for nice round holes on both sides to insure it isn’t going sideways, or has significant yaw.
Remember Trail Boss is incredibly light for its size so I highly recommend not using electric scales, unless they are very sensitive ones, and go with the good old manual balance types if possible as some electric scales struggle to pick up the very small increments it seems, depending on the unit.
Velocity spread is the main battle with subs , so make sure everything is very consistent. Every inconsistency is exaggerated because of the low velocity. If you get this right you can shoot a surprising distance- 160yard with shoulder shots ( using SubX projectiles. Conventional ones lack expansion).
If the velocity spread is higher than 25fps you will quickly see vertical stringing at distance.
My data is as follows:
308 Winchester.
190gr Hornady SubX
Powder- Trail Boss.
Sako brass
Standard rifle primer- Winchester WLR
For 16” barrel 1/11” twist: 10.5gn
1055 fps
For 18.5” Barrel 1/10” twist: 10.5gn
1040 fps
For 24” Barrel 1/10” twist: 9.8gn
1035-1045 fps. NOTE: Magnum primer on this load. Winchester WLRM.
This should give a good idea out of most platforms.
Remember any change of any component’s
Could lead to a very different result.
The sound barrier changes slightly with air density so I recommend having 20 FPS gap as a minimum to insure its subsonic in all conditions.
Please check rounds are clearing the barrel when testing. They can get stuck if the load is too low.
Hope this helps, feel free to ask questions if anything doesn’t make sense.
Thanks for the support.
Good luck.
Cheers,
Tom.
😮those were goats.
Hi,
Yes we have goats, pigs and deer in this part of the country. It seems that everything was out on this evening.
Cheers 👍👍
Why the goats?
Hi, goats are introduced and have no natural predators here so controlling numbers is always a priority. They are good to eat and we also use them for dog food. In this case the carcass remains that aren’t taken are a great way to bait pigs for efficient night hunting.
Cheers 👍😁
Ok. Didn't knew that they have no natural predators there. And goat is delicious, but very rare to get here in Germany! @@controlledrecoil-nzhunting
Git er done bud!!
Mate great to see you in the comments as always. Cheers 👍
🍻
Cheers mate great to have your support as always 👍👍
Absolutely top-notch videography and editing work. The shooting of both types is immaculate. BRAVO! I did a few hunting trips into the Tararua's back in the last century, so I have an idea of how fit you need to be to climb around and carry out meat. Thanks for your efforts, appreciated. 🙂 Watching from Sydney.
Cheers mate thanks for watching 👍👍
What are pugs? We get pigs over the ditch in Australia.
You get peeeegs over there 😊
Ah Pigs! Ha Pugs are similar just a shorter noise 😂
Good to see the ditch banter is alive and well. Heading to the esky for a beer you better look for ya jandles and head to the chilly bin.
😂😂🤙
Ps love ya work @@controlledrecoil-nzhunting

Hi,
Im not sure what your referring to, could you explain?
