Wow! EVERTHING about our time spent here was exactly what we were hoping for! Jesse’s experience and knowledge in guiding shined through allowing us to find animals that fit what my husband and I were seeking perfectly. And he even went beyond hunting duties to take us to the beach/lighthouse and to town when we needed a couple of things (mainly a cooler bag to take more meat home :)). Tash and Sarah were phenomenal and friendly, making delicious meals and offering fantastic conversation! We loved it all!! Thank you!

We’ve had an unforgettable experience and feel so fortunate to have shared time with such wonderful people. The hospitality was amazing and the cooking was fantastic.

527 sci Red stag
Vinny was a great guide and knew the property extremely well. He was particular about helping me find the animal I was looking for and not just one to fit the size category. The food was great so thank you Sarah.

Brent and Wendy thanks so much for the experience and the wonderful time. I truly enjoyed myself here, meeting you all and spending time with Harry, he is a great young man and is very intune with making a hunters trip very memorable. He found me the stag we were looking for, a beautiful 402 inch and put me in the right place to take the shot. I will be back!

How to describe my trip to NZ. Great time, hunt of a life time. Brent was an excellent guide and I couldn't complain. He put me on a gold stag of a lifetime. Huge stag with big kickers. I'll be back for sure. Thanks again.

It was truly an amazing trip out. My first time out here and my first time hunting any sort of big game. Brent did nothing but the best to guide me to a great 366 inch stag. 10/10. Would come again!
Heck Yeah Man. Good as Gold!

We have had a wonderful first 5 days and look forward to next 4 day tour. This has been a once in a lifetime trip for my family. You have made it special. All three guides were very competent and a joy to be around. Likewise, Mia was excellent and always had a bright smile. We will always treasure our time with the Moody team!

What a wonderful place. You have an excellent staff. Our accommodations were comfortable, the food great and the hunting amazing. My son graduated from high school this year and this trip was his present. I was excited to watch Jesse take the time to get Hunter on a very nice fallow. I will definitely be telling my friends about your hunting oufit and would like to come back sometime.

Brent and the crew!
Thank you all for the wonderful hospitality!! We've enjoyed every minute. Waking up to the birds singing, spending our days in the picturesque mountains and being spoiled by Mia's wonderful cooking in the evening. Everyone has made us feel like part of the Ohana (family). This has been a lifelong dream of ours and it has been full filled. Thank you Jesse for being a wonderful guide to us and showing us around. You put in a lot of work and its very much appreciated!! This is a wonderful place and we can't wait to be back again someday.
Lots of Love and Aloha,
