Elk Bull

One of the world’s most desirable trophies

ELK BULLS PUNCHING IN AT OVER A THOUSAND POUNDS ARE THE BIGGEST OF ALL THE ROUND HORNED MALE DEER.

Our guided Elk hunting has developed to the point where it now equals the best areas in the US for trophy quality animals.

Also known at Wapiti, the Rocky Mountain Elk bull were introduced in 1909 and quickly took to the mountainous southern Alps. The original herd of twenty Elk were a gift to New Zealand from then President, Theodore Roosevelt.

Cardrona Outfitter’s offer premium bull Elk hunts.

Our guided Elk hunting has developed to the point where it now equals the best areas in the US for trophy quality animals. Massive Elk Bulls scoring in the high 300's (and the odd 400+) are fairly common.

We recommend joining us in the New Zealand Autumn, March through May for the best of the hunting season to score one of these gigantic beasts.

Awesome experience! Everything about the trip was first class and exceeded all my expectations. I would not think of going to New Zealand with anyone else. Simon went out of his way to attend to everyone’s needs and ensure that they had a memorable trip. The game animals were plentiful and Simon made sure that everyone had great opportunities to take the trophies they were after. I highly recommend Cardrona Outfitters and Simon Hawkins for your New Zealand hunting experience.
