  • For today's yarn we are joined by female Australian Bowhunter Em Corbett. Em has been Bowhunting for over 8 years and lives her life with a strong focus on self sustainability and the importance of spending time out enjoying nature.

    Em has put in the hard yards over many years researching, practicing and learning skills to enable her to provide her family with self harvested protein from the most natural of environments.

    During this episode we go down the rabbit hole on loads of topics, all centred around living a more self sustainable, healthy life.

    We had a really great time putting this episode together with Em and felt a great energy during the conversations. She is a great role model for other females looking to kick start their Bowhunting journey.

    This is her story.

  • Today's yarn is with passionate hunter, outdoorsman and conservationist Hamiora Gibson.. Or better known as "Sam The Trap Man".

    Sam has spent a lifetime in the bush learning how to truely live from the plant and animal life in New Zealand at the same time preserving and caring for our natural resources to ensure they are here for generations to come.

    Sam has undertaken some incredible trapping work targeting non native, invasive species with some outstanding results. His trapping work has expanded to multiple other areas across New Zealand and continues to help the native species to once again flourish.

    The link between hunting and conservation meet perfectly when you mention the name Sam Gibson. He is a true representation of what all of us should strive for when representing hunting and hunters in this country.

    This is his story.

    Kayuga Adventures bowhunting courses run over a 7 day period and cover an extensive range of instructional lectures and live hunts including:

    Bow tuningArrow compositionIndividual archery coaching Shot placementAutopsies of crittersBush craftFinding food sources Bedding locationsStalkingTracking and loads more

    At the completion of each days activities, we sat down as a group and recorded a recap of the days events, learnings and funny moments to bring you an insight into arguably the most comprehensive bowhunting course in the world.

    Matty, Dani, Ian and Brad treated us all with great respect and provided exceptional hospitality over the 7 days.

    We shared some amazing memories, took down some great critters and enjoyed more than our share of laughs with the odd beer or 10 each night.

    This is a multi part series coming to you in the coming weeks.

    We will remember the amazing week at Kayuga Adventures for a very long time.

    This is their story.
