2 Hunting in New Zealand One of the most impressive hunting grounds in one of the most beautiful countries in the world. Extraordinary game species and fantastic landscapes establish New Zealand as a travel destination for the globetrotting hunter. Our partner consciously focuses on quality and offers hunts, which are perfectly suited to the wishes of individual clients. The hunts are conducted on a 1:1 basis. Matt, our partner in New Zealand, attaches great importance to both hunting ethics and to the quality of the hunt and of the trophies. He is a founding member of the New Zealand Association of Game Estates and a member of The New Zealand Professional Hunting Guides Association. Conscientious wildlife management combined with a limited number of hunts ensures the high quality of this outfitter and helps to guarantee quality from season to season. Our partner offers hunting guests a successful hunt of ripe trophies. This allows us to offer hunts and hunting costs separately, which means you are only charged the trophy fees if your hunt is successful
