Public land red stag hunting high in the Southern Alps during late summer at velvet stripping time. We use the Garmin InReach to send out text messages to a helicopter pilot for remote location pick up at the end of our hunt.

@jobaccamasakado6 years agoI hate to trash these guys, but i have to agree with the other comments. Never waste meat! No matter what. Never. Waste. Meat. i love you guys, but let' s do better. Good video and good action.

@nathanbellamy78706 years agoWhat a tragedy that those magnificent animals didn' t have the respect they deserved. If your not fit enough for the big country and bring out the meat. Don' t go there and just stick to farm scrub.

@juliehobbs68276 years agoNo respect. When you take a life you do not waste it. 3
