Queenstown New Zealand.
Ok I put a few pictures up yesterday but I found a few more.
This is about an hour and a half from home and a real tourist hub. Enjoy.

Re: Queenstown New Zealand.
This lot is just past Queenstown in the gibson valley.
I didn't get any more photos than that. The area is so big the pictures dont do it justice.
The shed is rammed earth and shist rock and used to be a wool shed built 1800s

Re: Queenstown New Zealand.
Plenty of water for big toys in that. The only river that comes out of this isn't really boat friendly, the outlet is only half or less than the inflow....one of those mysterys
I love it up there but I do like getting home to.
Yes Mickey D.s made it over here.. Its not that blackwater

Re: Queenstown New Zealand.
You'd have a blast. Q town is not cheap, but you are buying a nzd for 78 us cents. Make sure you let me know, I can tee up a hunt, fish or something the tourists dont see.
I met a lovely couple from missouri at one of the places. We we're in the car park with a 3 man water balloon sling shot firing stones into the paddock.

Re: Queenstown New Zealand.

Re: Queenstown New Zealand.
Your winter is our summer peak, but possibly may, its too early for ski season and summer is over, bonus is duck season starts first weekend of may. Its winter ski season now, I'm not sure if it picks up now or not.

Re: Queenstown New Zealand.
How popular is waterfowl hunting down there? Is it just ducks or do you have geese, brant, or swans too? Do you have hunting guides that do day hunts or would a guy have to go with the whole outfitter/lodge package?

Re: Queenstown New Zealand.
You gotta have a better reason than just duck hunting to go as far away as NZ because the flight is expensive. I'd pick Argentina over NZ if you want to kill 50 ducks a day. I hear the ducks are like flies and baiting is a well honed skill.
NZ landscape is beautiful and the history is unique. Some day when I retire and my children start paying it forward to me.

Re: Queenstown New Zealand.
Funny, I don't remember asking you what reasons I should have to go to New Zealand or the best place to go duck hunting in the world....... (Or Chaz either if you were referring to him.)
You really can't help but douche up everything on this forum can you?
