By the time you read this, I'll be bow hunting red stag, then chasing tahr with a rifle in New Zealand with my wife, Wendy. New Zealand. It's going to be an amazing experience which I'll share with you over the next few weeks.

In the meantime, there are quite a few differences between hunting in New Zealand and here in the United States. How wild game is managed, how land is accessed, what wild game is available, when, and where are all vastly different between the two countries. So are the gun laws. If you ever get tired of our Second Amendment and wanna see what life is like as a hunter without it, chances are New Zealand will quickly make you homesick for our Constitution.

In the meantime, I hope everyone's spring turkey and bear seasons are going well!

Stay safe out there.
