- I go hunting for Alpine Animals in the mountains of New Zealand alone on a multi day ambush hunt for Himalayan Bull Tahr, Chamois, and Red Deer in this remote wilderness while Camping and eat what I kill.

I LOVE THIS COUNTRY MY DREAM TO RELOCATE THERE SO MUCH NATURE GREAT EPISODE MAN GOOD JOB
My 4 year old and I have been watching some spearfishing this evening and he's been asking to see Ollie Craig hunting.
Great timing, made the father son evening!
Awesome!
First time wtaching a non-spearfishing video on this channel and I much enjoyed it.
Cool guy and a great video as per usual 👏🏻
Keep it up Ollie 👌🏻
Epic hunt ! Recon you have the best attitude for hunting. Respecting the animal and appreciating the experiance, you not hunting to feed your ego for sure. Thank you.
WOW! New Zealand like you've never seen it! Absolute scenes
I've seen it and lived it.
WOW!
Good on ya mate for getting up there and going solo. There nothing better than being up on the tops by yourself. It’s my happy place. Well done on the alpine double. 🤙🤙
Another great episode Ollie, cheers for sharing absolutely love it 👌🤙
Not cheesy at all, I get it. The experience is everything to me!
Another epic vid Ollie! Awesome stuff, cheers from Austin, Texas!
“We do know how lucky we are “ Great video, Ollie!
Watching from New York. Love watching this channel
Thanks!
Epic, epic, epic. Well done mate, just soooo good.👍
awesome vid mate , the sea and the mountains is where its at
Absolutely amazing.
Solid hunt, Ollie. Nice buck lookin good
I like, good honest hunting with no pumping it up. Excellent effort
It is unbelievable and ancient NZ... It is so beautiful, hard to describe almost other worldly. Thanks Ollie ❤
It really is!
Exactly Ollie, hunt for your own rewards. I'm the same I like huge animals, but the adventure is the deal for me. Beautiful Chamois and Tar both great shots. Thank you for giving us a little rifle run down on caliber and equipment.
Great video beautiful views. 👍
Thanks!
Cheers! Appreciate the support! 🙏
Good on you Ollie! Keep getting after it!
what an incredible place to walk & stalk - thx for sharing
Thanks Ollie, great mission. Was good to watch as a kiwi in Sydney.. dreaming of NZ in November, Cheers
That's more than a "half decent" buck in anyone's book!! Weldone! Just a headsup on those little bushbuck tents, they WONT handle a decent alpine wind!!
But they have 5 star reviews. 😂
Just the one mans? I did notice they are quite high. The two man's go hard I've had those in some shit, but not much time in the one man
@@olliecraig-primalpursuit yeah I can't speak for the others but I saw 2 of the one man tents go in a decent alpine blow.
That's pretty awesome mate well done
Thank you! Cheers!
Great video Ollie. Well done on the nice Chamois and great commentary. Nice cook set up. So good having real food up in the mountains!
Glad you enjoyed it thanks!
Yeah as a North Islander I'd be stoked to get a representative chamois and thar. No tape measure required! 😂
Insanely cool, NZ is a great place! Just added it to the list, a few days hunting and a few days spearfishing. The dream!
Listening to Thievery Corporation in such an amazing place, all by yourself... what a life! Awesome content as always. Cheers mate!
Haha bloody tune that one. Thanks mate!
Nice one Ollie, some beautiful rugged country covered in this one. Appreciate the camera shots as much as the ones with the rifle! Keep it up!
Thanks! Will do mate
Not cheesey at all,Bro. Pretty genuine emotions after you got the buck with the effort you went too. You bloody earned that Chamois that's for sure.
That terrain was pretty gnarly too. Well done mate.
Great little Adventure, Ollie!!! You definitely have the right attitude towards hunting be it Kingfish or Chamois or Red Deer! Sad that so many others just shoot without any consideration to the animal or the terrain and either take the first animal they can get within range of (usually taking a questionable shot), that or they are obsessed with the Horns or the Length etc. and take the horns and leave the rest of the meat to rot and be eaten by carrion scavengers like hawks or vultures. So glad that I found your channel several years back as it's nice to see a young sportsman with some ethics!! Take care, Mate!! - Dave
Cheers Dave, I took what I could and would have taken it all if coming by chopper. Agree, but we all start somewhere and unfortunately lots without a good mentor in regard to choosing animal etc. need a lot more public awareness about that stuff which I’ll try to include on future videos cheers
@@olliecraig-primalpursuit That's why I keep returning to watch your adventures!! I wasn't knocking your hunting Ollie, I fully understand you can only carry down so much. Hunters like you aren't the issue. Here in Canada I've run across full White-tail Bucks with the antlers removed with the top of the head and the backstraps taken and that was it the rest of a 200+ pound animal left to rot and attract bears/mountain lions and wolves among other creatures eager to clean up the kill and at the same time introducing these predators into the area where people walk through or even set up hunting camps. Nothing like seeing a Lion outside your canvas wall tent first thing in the morning to give you chills for days.
You do things right. I don't know who your mentor was but they did a fantastic job and in return you now have this knowledge plus the experiences you have to pass on to others, and I'm delighted to watch you do that!! Take care!! - Dave
On ya bro good work
Great vid. Awesome country. Keep it coming.
I've been watching for a while now and wanted to comment that I really love this content. Keep it up!
That was wicked, very humble, and stunning scenery!! Might move over to NZ, Ireland is lovely, but jeebus, that is amazing!!
Your brave solo expedition in the mountain wilderness for three days is truly inspiring, showcasing your resilience and love for adventure. Your ability to share such thrilling experiences with honesty and passion captivates and motivates. And I am Floating Village Life
nice chatgpt comment mate. get a grip
My name is Lugash!! 😂
i like the broomed off chamois
Unbelievable scenery mate brilliant
Awesome
Cheers bro I watch all of your stuff so good awesome hunt mate thanks
Great job being first solo mish!!
good hunting...
Great video Ollie!
Awesome footage Ollie. I really enjoyed watching this episode. I've seen other hunting vids but got bored and swiped to another video of something else. For some reason I watched the whole journey and enjoyed it. It looked stunning the scenery and breath taking. Keep up the great job bro.
That’s great too hear! Feel free to let me know parts which were boring or could
Improve on too, as hunting episodes are new for me so lots to improve on
Sorry brother I was referring to other content being boring not yours. I enjoyed the whole thing which made me interested throughout.
Love the video, keep them coming all the way from the Cook islands
Good skills man. Awesome video as always cheers.
Bloody good vid mate. I share your passion. Not all about big antlers and horns. keep up the good work.
Incredible footage man!!
Primal Pursuit são cenas de cinema 👍👍👍 Sensacional!
Great stuff !
You need an outdoor show!
This is it! 😂
Awesome watch Bro🤙🏽
Great vid enjoyed the watch.
Your comment about the wind mid vid. In calm conditions wind will head uphill when the sun has warmed the faces...so depending on season and aspect of the face from mid/late morning till evening it will head uphill....then as it cools it will fall back down the hill during evening night and early morning. Hope this helps future hunts.
Thanks for the info!
Epic mate!
Stacked in Epic, shot cuzz, i really enjoyed, switch up from the spear gun :)
Wow awesome mate cheers
Cool vid bro. I think urll find those prints are hears🐇. I thought I once ran into a pack of wild dogs once until I started seeing hears everywhere haha
Awesome vid mate, well done
Another epic vid mate ❤
Awesome video nice hunt thanks for sharing,… I know you had a long ways to go but to the ribs of any animal is the best part sad to see u didn’t take them
I agree, ribs are amazing! I have access to Deer not far from home which I hunt for meat regularly. For those animals I Utilise everything, Liver, Heart, Ribs, etc etc.
Great video enjoyed it you done well good stuff.
It doesn’t get any better than that. An Absolute Dream.
How much do these animals weigh?
That view from the top...
Mean adventure man
Mean Ollie bro mean❤❤❤did you take out the eye fillets
Epic hunt!
Great video good work
Cheers from Brasil!!!
great video, keep it up
Broo,this is insane vidio 🔥🔥🔥
Solid effort bro ! Fyi chamois have 8x binocular vision 🧐
Living out the LOTR fantasy in Real Life!! Cheers mate!! I made a Kingie Video for you!!
Oh yeah...another great video my man. This is really good stuff Ollie, well done...
Question:
Wouldnt it be good to take someone with you thats never done this before?
What an experience for him and safer for you.
What a great video. Love the scenery. For the tahr, do you only keep the backstraps for eating?
WOW...amazing video...did you find out whar could be the big CAT footprints? I didnt know you have Puma-like creatures there...
Cheers
Top hunt
Very impressive hunt, and good on you for chasing down the injured animal.
I can hardly believe you do this. You're off trail in incredibly rugged country, carrying your hunting and filming gear in addition to your backpacking gear. How do you pack out the meat when you are already so loaded down? Like I said, very impressive.
Something you might find amusing is that the YT speech recognition wrote "suppresa" when you said "suppressor". Probably the same that it would have done for a strong Baaawston (Boston) accent here in the States.
Hey Ollie! love the spear fishing videos, you pretty much taught me how to spear fish haha what boots are you running in this video, I'm looking at getting into more hunting and cant figure out which boots to get?
Hey mate using meindl Gufforts they have been great to me. Lots of good options out there I’ve been hearing lots of good stuff about the crispi boots lately. Not sure what I’ll go next maybe try for something with bit more width even though these are supposed to be one of the more wider pairs.
Ollie,,, aku sangat menyukai video video petualangan mu,,, salam dari indonesia 🇮🇩
Thanks!
w vid
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Such a beautiful place. Forgive me a stupid question, but is this where Peter Jackson shot those films?
The films along with scenes from mission impossible etc were shot a bit further south from here. Closer to Queenstown but still along the southern alps of the south island
There is nothing wrong with that Chamois Buck. Anything over 9 inches is a trophy and 10" bucks are quite rare..
Do you pack out all the meat from both animals?
Would weigh a lot
Будь осторожен, Олли. Там очень много акул.
ollie, why do you guys waste the meat. i grew up on a farm in South Africa and my father and grandfather made emphasis on the fact you kill it you eat it, no waste. I will never dare just cut the back straps out then just leave the rest, my dad would have wipped the daily lights out of me.
you got an awesome hunt in but now you waste, you could debone most meat then leave the rest. i really enjoy your style and content , kudos to you Sir.
Hey mate, I meat hunt frequently and utilise everything I can from those animals. In regards to this hunt, check out my other recent hutning video with pinned comment to the top which will explain this hunt and other Alpine hunts in NZ
I am India👍👍👍
🤙🏼
Hi
Bawa temen om ? Sendirian terlalu bahaya
Throw some baking soda on your meat for 10 mins then wash off, if it's going to be tough.
South islands way better than the north
hunting and collecting just the mounts ? idk if its ethical
I took meat..
@@olliecraig-primalpursuit just the back strap ?
@@AuroraPictures I took all the meat i could from the Chamois, but only the backstraps from the Tahr. All i could physically carry. I had to walk out unlike most Tahr hunters who take a Helicopter in and out.
@@AuroraPictures Read my pinned post on my other recent hunting video for a more in depth explanation cheers
mate hunt sustainably ..use whatever meat u get from the anuimal and please stop overhunting
