Testimonials

"If a New Zealand hunt is on your bucket list look no further. I hunted with Flax Hills for tarh, red stag and Fallow in March and I will be coming back!! Not only do they have amazing animals and land to hunt but they are by far the nicest people I have ever hunted with. Their hospitality is second to none and you are blessed to wake up in the middle of your hunting land. I will be taking my son and son-in-law to hunt with them in the next 2 years!! I was not only able to harvest my tahr, stag and fallow, but also an Elk and wild goat"

"Hunting at Flax Hills was an incredible experience. I felt like I was able to truly experience New Zealand—not just from a hunting perspective, but also a cultural one. While harvesting a mature stag was my primary goal, I equally enjoyed spending time on other parts of their property learning about their operation. I even had the opportunity to spend time with the ranch hand and working dogs herding sheep, which was fascinating to watch. Karl and Viv went above and beyond to ensure I had the experience I was looking for."

"I can tell you up front that it was an exceptional hunting experience. Plenty of game, great accommodations and the food was out of this world. Karl and Viv were gracious hosts that invited us to dine with them in their beautiful home. They are a family run working ranch and have a wonderful family."

"My wife and I went to New Zealand to celebrate our 10th anniversary. My wife commented that Viv was superwoman. She’s an incredible cook and her attention to details made our stay there outstanding. The location was just breath taking – the natural beauty is almost overwhelming. The hunt was an amazing experience. If you are looking to hunt red stag in NZ then you owe it to yourself to seriously consider Flax Hills Hunting."

“Our entire experience at Flax Hills Hunting was very enjoyable. From the booking, planning and travel to New Zealand, Karl and Viv were engaged throughout the entire process and gracious hosts. The accommodations were comfortable, and the food was exceptional. My bucket list hunt for a New Zealand Red Stag couldn’t have taken place in a more beautiful setting. The ranch offered a variety of terrain and plenty of game to look over. I could not be more pleased in the outcome and would highly recommend Flax Hills Hunting”
