Hunting Calender

Mid March to mid August is the prime hunting time in New Zealand as it coincides with the New Zealand fall (March-May) and winter (June to August). However, because the Asian deer species sika, sambar and rusa thrive in New Zealand, we can offer hunting for hard antlered deer nearly all year round. The calendar below gives you an indication of the best months to come trophy hunting in New Zealand.
