Testimonials | Doddsy's Hunting Experience, New Zealand

"We are both really fortunate to experience a hunt of a lifetime, we had fun the entire three days of the thar hunt." - Norrisa & Jen, USA

"I want to say thanks to Barry and Sandie for their hospitality, they are such great people to be with. They make you feel like you are with family. Sandie's cooking was so good and Barry can do a mean BBQ! The hunting is excellent, so many animals! I want to thank Barry for being a top notch guide, he held me back when I wanted to shoot a big stag. He told me that I could find bigger and I trusted him. He was so correct, when we saw THE big stag, he know that was the one for me, and with his superb guiding, got me my stag of a lifetime. Thanks Barry for being a good friend.

I want to say thanks to Sandie for taking me shopping in Queenstown. Barry, tell your brother-in-law thanks for the jet boat ride on the lake and river, what a great day's fishing! To my new friends in New Zealand, can't wait to see you again for another adventure. Thank you Barry & Sandie for the 5star accommodation." - Cory Gibson, USA

“My lead guide, Barry, did a great job of keeping us close to the animals during the entire six hour stalk. He knows his business!” - Bob, USA

A truly memorable trip

"Barry and Sandy were great hosts and honestly, I felt more like family than a client. Everything was organized perfectly from the airport pickup to the side sightseeing trips Sandy arranged for my wife. I would highly suggest taking your wife and doing the sightseeing, the amount of sight seeing you can do will fill up your whole trip.

On my second trip to NZ I brought my 78year old grandfather to hunt Fallow deer and Tahr. He wanted to do it on foot and Barry made all the arrangements to get the job done. My grandfather was able to get one of his dream animals, and had a great time. He still shows off all his photos and wants to come back.

The food was unreal and there was plenty of it. All the food was fresh and homemade from scratch. Thanks for everything, you made this a truly memorable trip and we can’t wait to go back." - Dustin, Dixon, CA
