Hunting in the Fall at Poronui NZ

By Colin James


(Taupo, New Zealand) Crisp clear mornings are proving glorious conditions for hunting deer at Poronui Station, near Taupo in the central North Island of New Zealand.

Lodge Manager Eve Reilly says the promise of a June deer stalk in the white frosty landscape is sufficient to stir hunters and photographers out of bed,"The excitement begins the evening before, when guests plan the final details of the deer stalk with their Poronui Hunting guide. An early breakfast is usually brief, and then everyone rugs up and heads out to the badlands while it's still dark," says Reilly.

Reilly says that suns up shortly after 7am, with the hunters' breath filling the predawn air with white puffs of pure adrenalin,"Coming over the ridge and spotting the deer at dawn is totally magical. Non hunting partners often accompany the party solely to see the sun rising over the white frosty hills. Many photographs and videos are taken, however nothing beats essentially being there in the flesh," announces Reilly.

The frost quickly liquifies when the sun comes over the horizon and the glistening frost makes the perfect backdrop for stills and video, with Poronui hunting guides being expert in the art capturing highly memorable moments of the hunter with their deer.

Reilly says that Poronui hunting guides are consummate professional, highly experienced and very knowledgeable,"There is nothing our hunting guides like better than getting a client lined up on a trophy, but at the exact same time our guides are good company and its always a great day out in the hills for everyone. "

A dawn hunt is almost always followed by a hefty breakfast back at the lodge, and then the processing of the deer begins. Reilly says that the deer is field dressed by the guide, and then according to the client's needs there is the chance of venison for the chef to prepare, venison for the freezer, a skin for the floor and antlers for the wall. The clients can be concerned with as much or as little of the processing of the deer as they prefer. Reilly says that Poronui has the experience to meet the most precise necessities. She is saying that as amongst the premier sporting lodges internationally , they have first class artisans who make a top grade skin and a mounted head to be envied,"Part of the wonder of Poronui is about making memories, and expediting and/or mounting a trophy is easily arranged. We work with the best taxidermists in New Zealand. "

Frosty mornings at Poronui blossom into radiant clear days, and the guarantee of more adventure. Reilly claims there is always plenty to do at Poronui Hunting, but nothing that you have to do. Go to Poronui Hunting to plan your New Zealand deer hunting expedition.
