    Josh. Great Videos!!
    I've seen a heaping pile of these video here in busy Vancouver BC. I love these.
    My world is Audio. If you ever wanted me to lay in background Cues I'd be all about it purely on love.
    I grew up in Nova Scotia in Bush and Farm Culture and you take me back to my roots and stoke my inner flame.
    Thanks brother. Fact- You're an inspiration and what great friends and family! You are blessed.

    • @joshjameskiwibushman
      @joshjameskiwibushman  10 лет назад

      Hey Ben, I just lay them out skin side up in the frost then when they are frozen roll them up. If it rains and they are frozen I put them under cover. Will last for a week. If it doesn't freeze and your up there for more than 4 days or if its warm you will need to salt the skins. Chuck them straight in the freezer as soon as you get home

    • @joshjameskiwibushman
      @joshjameskiwibushman  8 лет назад +2

      go stoney creek, swazi dont honour their warrantee, I had a pair of
      gators fail in the first 20 minutes of use, they then tried to tell me
      they didnt sell brown gators even though I purchased them from their
      website, after I sent several photo's they then told me they didnt
      warrantee the zippers because they were made in China. Cheeky bastards.
      Get the Tundra from Stoney Creek, hard wearing and if you get hot you cn
      unzip it as your climbing which you cant do with the smocks

  • @TH-mq6gr
    @TH-mq6gr 6 лет назад

    Why don’t you carry a pair of lightweight crampons for ice and snow? It would solve the slipping on the recovery and descent once the hunt is over.

    • @joshjameskiwibushman
      @joshjameskiwibushman  6 лет назад

      yeah, Im getting there, all the gear is expensive. Priorities. I used to hunt them in gumboots and a PVC raincoat with an open sight 303... so we are doing OK

  • @MrGkot
    @MrGkot 10 лет назад

    Hi Josh, awesome video, you must be having a very exiting life.
    A few questions, as a newbie to NZ it is hard for me to decide what caliber is ideal for hunting here? 243? 270? 308? which one is your favorite? is it Tikkas that you and Smithy use?
    Looking forward for more videos.
    Cheers.

    A great on foot hunting video Just what it should be. You should stop shooting from helicopters. Fly in but hunt on foot. Consider posting worldwide and act as guides. A lot of hunters would give their eye teeth for what you have got!!!!
    Enjoy while you can Cheers.

    • @joshjameskiwibushman
      @joshjameskiwibushman  9 лет назад

      cazthebaldfox Hi there, its a mix of pest control and hunting. We harvest the hides from the big bulls and also the backsteaks and hindquarters. We also harvest the meat from the young bulls and nannies as well as the hides. A lot of people just shoot them and leave them. The NZ Department Of Conservation cull thousands of Tahr each year using helicopters, foot hunters and aerial poison ( 1080 poison )
