Book Synopsis The Chopper Boys and the Helicopter Hunters by : Rex Forrester
Download or read book The Chopper Boys and the Helicopter Hunters written by Rex Forrester and published by Penguin Books. This book was released on 2002 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rex Forrester's two great New Zealand hunting classics are to appear for the first time in a single volume. It is the story of the chopper boys, the men whose sweat, skill and heroism provided the foundation for the now-thriving deer-farming industry. Working in dangerous conditions in New Zealand's remote back country, these men risked serious injury, even death, for the adventure of it all - as well as sometimes for serious financial gain. Forrester's stories range from the 'meat hawk wars', poaching, and the transition from slaughter to live capture to the development of the net gun. Packed with yarns, jokes and close calls, this is essential reading for hunters and armchair-adventurers alike.

Book Synopsis The Last Great Southern Adventure by : Olivia Page
Download or read book The Last Great Southern Adventure written by Olivia Page and published by Halycyon Press. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There was a time in New Zealand's recent past, when every country town, had one or more helicopters based there involved with wild venison recovery to feed a growing export trade. As the wild deer population was reduced and deer farming became widespread, helicopter recovery operations slowly ceased in most locations. Fiordland and South Westland today remain the only areas with full-time venison recovery helicopters still flying. Professional photographer Olivia Page was given the opportunity to record WARO (wild animal recovery operations) in Fiordland over the summer of 2010-2011, the result was 7000 images the best of which are shown in this book, recording an industry which is going through change and may soon be gone forever. A bonus DVD is included, with documentary footage of Dick Deaker and Jeff Carter, on venison recovery missions in Fiordland. Shot by award winning filmmaker Marion Poizeau.

Book excerpt: A Chukar Hunter's Companion will help get you ready for a successful hunting trip, then go along to make sure you enjoy it.

Companion opens with well-researched information about the bird itself, then launches in to the book's underpinning, the how-to section. Wray takes you from physical conditioning through the gear you'll need, then into the hunt itself. He looks carefully at the entire hunting process, from deciding on a location to caring for your birds. Wray's essays, sprinkled lightly throughout the text, are funny, introspective, heartwarming and thought-provoking. They are the spice on a wonderfully fulfilling reading experience.
Download or read book Hawks written by Andrew Grant and published by Shoal Bay. This book was released on 1998-01-01 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: HAWKS is a tale of New Zealand's wild south-west, set during the early years of the venison recovery industry. This was a time when the cowboys rode choppers instead of horses and used semi-automatic weapons, not six guns. They lived, worked and sometimes died in the most rugged and spectacular corner of this country - the vast Fiordland wilderness. HAWKS is a fictional tale but the fast action depicted here might very well have happened. It is the story of Gray, and enigmatic young man running from his past and the horrors of the Vietnam war. He returns to New Zealand's southern lands to find himself in a war of a very different kind - a dangerous war for the highest profits, set against some of the most inhospitable country in the world. With the deadly skills he learnt in the SAS, Gray becomes the top gun, the man every chopper pilot wants in the shooter's seat on his machine as the competition gets fiercer and men begin to take increasingly desperate risks. Some make mistakes and some die. Others are killed, apparently having made no mistakes at all. Gray's story encompasses life and death as well as love. Unashamedly robust, Hawks tells it like it really was, or could have been, as greed and jealousy and a woman named Mary combine in an explosive finale.

Book Synopsis A Hunter in Paradise by : Zeff Veronese
Download or read book A Hunter in Paradise written by Zeff Veronese and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "'Zeff Veronese is one of this country's longest and most respected chamois and tahr hunters ... His prowess with a rifle and camera have been long known and achieved national recognition within the New Zealand Deerstalkers' Association. The collection of absorbing tales and photographs this back country author has provided, strongly conveys honest passion for our wild places and a sincere respect for the game animals hunted'--Kevin J. Whitelaw, New Zealand's Hunting Legends. Why do I hunt? That is a very hard question to answer. Both my grandparents were hunters and so was my father, my brothers and some of my uncles. I grew up in Italy during the war and the years after, in very tough times. However, the hunting instinct was never far away ... When we arrived in New Zealand, we found it to be a goldmine for a hunter and made the most of it. The first ten years we hunted mainly for meat and always had a freezer full of game meat ... Perhaps the last 40 years I have mainly hunted for trophies. Sometimes when in a good spot for a few days, I might see 30 or 40 animals and as they have no trophy value I don't fire a shot but happily film the events. Hunting is still good for me because I enjoy being in the wild. Camaraderie is an important ingredient on a hunt; there is nothing better than being in a tent or a hut with friends who have the same interests and are happy to share their funny stories after a hard day in the mountains"--page [4] of cover.
