Bring your bow and bring a buddy to pack some heat, but I'm warning you now if you want to do it with a bow it probably won't happen if you pack a rifle. There's a lot of patience and waiting when stalking these critters with pokie sticks!
Keep this read alive, I did that with my first few...
I only did 5 goat hunts for Bolen Lewis last season but three of the goats were 50"-50"+ and all archery. It is a lot of money, but if you're only going to spend it once I suggest paying the big bucks and doing right. Spike is awesome to deal with and if there is anything out of our outfits...
Ya people will always have an opinion and a hard on against some brands.. is what it is, obviously some people like them, why rag on it? If I didn't get them for free, no I probably wouldn't shoot them. But they work for me, they shoot good out of my longbow. I'm not shooting 50 yards, and I'm...
I've shot the momentum tdt and the momentum blacks, wasn't a fan of the steel components on the tdt's I broke lots. The blacks came with brass inserts and no collars and I was a big fan, they were 658 gr when I tuned them to my 52# bow. I can't remember but I think I was getting 180ish fps. I...
We were planning on west coast but due to weather we ended up on the east side in southern alps. It was in Nov. we 4x4 through creeks and rock beds for 6 hours and then hiked into the valley on a tramping trail. I live on the north coast of BC and experience bad weather but NZ was so much worse...
I went with Joseph at hard yards two years ago. His prices are super reasonable. I shot a proper bull the first day of the hunt. Honestly with flights included you're lookin around 5k or less I'm pretty sure. It's rugged country!! But I strongly recommend his outfit.
I work for Bolen Lewis and yes we are very booked up, I will throw Milligans hat into this race also because I didn't notice him mentioned. He has a bunch of solid guides and he is our neighbouring outfit with the same huge goat genetics. That being said dustin is arguably one of the greatest...
My good friend guides for that outfit. If it's a 2-1 I would assume there will be a lot of spiking out. If you want send me a PM and I will put you in contact with the guide directly and he can give you all the info you're after. That way you know exactly what's coming. He's a friendly guy and...
We run hunts at Bolen Lewis in august for this price. But I think with most outfitters they will be booked up for 2018-19 already. Some guys don't start running them until the 15th of august so you might be able to squeak in, best of luck!
Another question is which outfit? We run our late season goat hunts out of a lodge and use quad snow machine access, but they might have a wallten, cabin or tipi with a stove?
