PRICES & TRIP SCHEDULES

In New Zealand, the red stags roar (rut) begins in our autumn (fall) season, commencing mid March and concluding in late May and tailing of into June. The hunting block is closed to all hunting from January through until the mid-March when trophy hunting and the rut begins, and remains open for the rest of the calendar year. Good trophies are obtainable throughout winter and spring, until September, at which time the red stags shed their antlers. Free-range hunts are most successful during the roar period. Whereas the Estate hunts are successful throughout the hard-antler period from February through to September.

With a long history of Warnam and Woburn red deer bloodlines in this area, a world record stag could be secured at Okau. In fact, in the Okau Park 2001 roar, a bow hunter took an all time bow hunters New Zealand record for a red stag!
