Hunting Aotearoa - Series Five, Episode 21

In this episode of Hunting Aotearoa, presenter Howie Morrison Junior slings his rifle over his shoulder, and heads to Taranaki to accept Matt Newton’s invitation to sample the region’s hunting experiences. First up, Morrison sidesteps the bush-bashing and heads into the skies with Precision Helicopters. After whakapapa stories over tea — including World War II fighter pilots and deer recovery — the pair are inspired to go out and shoot down some goats and stags. Then there’s a wild bull in the scrub. 'Today’s tip' looks at bowhunting with Kevin Watson.

Oops that one almost wrapped around the ponga tree …

– The boys have trouble getting the bull off the ground via chopper
