Awesome effort boys. You put in the hard yards, and got rewarded with a great bull, and more importantly great memories that you will treasure forever 👍
Bloody good going. good effort on the walk out i bet ole mate was rooted while carrying all his gear and that rack for 12+ hours. I know how how hard that can be. top effort lads
Awesome vid guys kool to see the country above lake bernard. We had the block period before you guys. We hunted up to the bottom edge of lake and attempted to get around for just a day hunt but pin on it. Awesome country amazing trophy well done guys👍
Awesome Edit Tim, Well done on the Bull, Nice to see what the other half of the block looked like :) Unreal country eh!! The Swamps were unreal! Should have my Wild Natives Video up at some point soonish :) Cheers for sharing!!
Well done fellas, and great bull. Got me a little nostalgic. We were a few valleys over in the Edith same period. Was a hell of a storm up on the Edith saddle (which was also a bomb proof camp spot).
Thats an epic bull! Good job! Once you've headskinned the animal, you can skull cap it getting rid of the weight of skull and brain. I've got a small saw on my skinning knife for skullcapping.
What camera lens did you film the hunt on? Probably who ever told you there were "No deer up there" knew there was a nice bull up there... Thanks for sharing your trip Tim...Well done, both of you. I've never heard of Zoleo ...so thanks for the heads up.
Sorry I didn’t pick up on the brand name of those rubber over boots you where wearing or who the suppliers of them are? Great video guys. Good to see you out there doing it in Southland,NZ…Fiordland is Tiger Country.
Cheers mate, here's the link to some! www.gubba.co.nz/gubba-silicone-overshoes/?sku=G-GUB-SOVSHOES-L&gclid=CjwKCAjw4ayUBhA4EiwATWyBrj7eXX9FZgHemvaqiNts4HWc-vYLgEUhY2ARESWITDYEvU1nrojhkxoCD14QAvD_BwE
Got a couple of question. After you shot that Bull did you fly camp there or hump all the way back to your rock Bivvy in the dark? What model battery banks do you use to keep your gear charged? What model Stone Glacier Pack did you use? Cheers, grt video...
Hey mate! Slogged back to the rock biv after we went down to the bull to get the head skin done and cooling over a bush. Didn’t want it to slip the hair by staying hot on the animal. Power banks are a real mix of brands, nightcore and a couple from Harvey normal. And the packs are Stone glacier Sky Talus 6900 (grey one) and then the gold one is the Evo model.
The forecast through the Zoleo was pretty average but just flicking a message out to someone who knows their stuff on getting a solid forecast was definitely the way to go. The Zoleo weather forecast is for the area, not for the localised spot I believe.
@@timschulpen thought so, did you find them big enough for the trip/ comfortable? Running Kuiu Pro 6000 at the moment and have been doing a bit of research on those Stone Glacier packs and trying to find some reviews on them from local guys. Thanks
@@RaptorNZ Plenty of space and super comfortable. Given its a seriously good run over the last year and I'm seriously impressed with it. The whole design beats anything else on the market in my opinion.
Being pushed for time with the sun setting and the bush edge right in front of where we set up we didn't want to take any more chances. We would have tried to get closer if it was possible 👍
Hey mate! Appreciate the comment. Packs going in were 32kg, we covered well over 70km over the trip in some of the hardest country you can find. Head skin would have been around 12kg and head around 15kg it doesn't take long before your lugging around 50kg+ through a swamp!
@@timschulpen wholly fuckolly, thats heavy, I get that - and thats without carrying water in. Pitty you couldnt chopper it out- heaps meat for the both of ya?
@ocean view! Fiordland has broken many man mentally and physically! Half the ballot winners wouldn't have even attempted what these boys achieved! Never mind the quantity of gear, km covered and weight they carried to navigate that country to get back out safely. Sadly sometimes its the way it goes...
Not a waist. A waist would be if guys like this could not go into that wilderness and that the Deer are shot by helicopter as a pest. This is some of the most extreme hunting available in the world and has been kept as such by people like these guys
@@adamchristo3082Wow there is so much poverty in this country You could of packed out the back steaks and done some family a real treat In Alaska you can't hunt unless you take the whole animal out with you
@@adamchristo3082 Mate I've had the opportunity to hunt in Alaska and all over New Zealand and taken meat out from all those hunting trips including Native Wilds Which the difference being its alot more muddy under foot and thick dense bush So I'm not feeling your response
Massive exercise . great video . gubba booties 😁

Well done fellas, and great bull. Got me a little nostalgic. We were a few valleys over in the Edith same period. Was a hell of a storm up on the Edith saddle (which was also a bomb proof camp spot).
Awesome mate! how'd you get on? Hell of a storm aye, that thunder and lightning wasn't enjoyable at all.
Wicked video lads !job tidy

Incredible work boys! What did this bloke measure on his main beams?

Fantastic effort and outcome lads 👏👊
Such a sick edit bois. Cheers.
Well done boys was up Worsley over that ballot and heard mean roars
Good stuff fellas
lmfao while ole mate was trying to get his tent out after the massive walk, he looked cooked asf

Amazing... Visit Kaigah Conservation for Markhor Hub.
A magnificent Bull fellas. Thoroughly deserved after putting in the hard yards. Great vid. Cheers

Thanks for sharing your trip Tim...Well done, both of you.
I've never heard of Zoleo ...so thanks for the heads up.
Just on an iPhone 13. Wouldn't surprise me if that was the case.
Nice video lads. What age did the FWF assess his jaw at? Looked like he could have done with another year or two?
Agree mate, body and posture says 5.3 years old.
Gidday , hay what's that camera clip you had on you shoulder strap for you bigger camera ? Cheers
Sorry for the slow response mate! Its a Peak Designs Capture clip.
Sorry I didn’t pick up on the brand name of those rubber over boots you where wearing or who the suppliers of them are?
Great video guys. Good to see you out there doing it in Southland,NZ…Fiordland is Tiger Country.

Have you ever had the Kuiu tent smashed by strong winds and rain? If so how did it cope?
Yup its been tested numerous times! Held up extremely well in high wind and rain. Can't fault it.
Got a couple of question. After you shot that Bull did you fly camp there or hump all the way back to your rock Bivvy in the dark?
What model battery banks do you use to keep your gear charged? What model Stone Glacier Pack did you use? Cheers, grt video...

@@timschulpen Grt thanks heaps for the info. Great hunt and hard core effort
Chz boyz im always looking for a deal or what works best
great video . where did you buy ya Stone glacier pack from .
Cheers! Bought it from their website. Awesome packs!
@@timschulpen so you imported it in?
The full Fiordland experience! Well done lads, great video 😎😎 what’s that grey hoody you were wearing?
Cheers mate! Stone glacier hoody.
Did you use the Zoleo for Weather reports? How were they?
The forecast through the Zoleo was pretty average but just flicking a message out to someone who knows their stuff on getting a solid forecast was definitely the way to go. The Zoleo weather forecast is for the area, not for the localised spot I believe.
Make some more content that video was good as
Awesome video guys! What Stone Glacier packs were you both running out of interest? Thanks
Cheers mate! Sky Talus 6900 (Grey pack) and Evo 6900 (Gold)

Well done. No chance to reduce the final distance on the bull?
Being pushed for time with the sun setting and the bush edge right in front of where we set up we didn't want to take any more chances. We would have tried to get closer if it was possible 👍
Hey fellas - great hunt the hard way. Dont reckon I could do that myself. Great head there, I wondered why you didnt take any meat from that beast eh?

Yea such a waste of meat, hard to justify killing such an animal just for a trophy
Not eating it? Just a trophy hunt?
@ocean view! Fiordland has broken many man mentally and physically! Half the ballot winners wouldn't have even attempted what these boys achieved! Never mind the quantity of gear, km covered and weight they carried to navigate that country to get back out safely. Sadly sometimes its the way it goes...
Please slow down on your panning shot.
Cheers Joe
How bloody pathetic….what hero’s!!
Can't believe you left all the prime meat
What a waste of animal

@@willumverberne9663 That is not Alaska and that country simply could not be hunted for meat recovery.

It is a waste, but simply not practical to pack meat out when you're on a long range trip like this.
