Savage Arms® Announces New Savage Journeys Episode: Hunting the Rugged Wild

WESTFIELD, Massachusetts – August 8, 2024 – Savage Arms® is proud to have the latest Savage Journeys episode featured on multiple platforms. “Hunting the Rugged Wild” debuted on Carbon TV, premiers on YouTube tonight at 7PM ET and hits the Savage Blog tomorrow. Season 3, Episode 17 features Savage Marketing Director Beth Shimanski’s exceptionally long path and dedicated preparation plan to hunting success and personal growth in New Zealand.  

 Shimanski has been lucky enough to hunt some wild places all over the globe. For someone who has been hunting for less than 10 years, her list of adventures is long. All hunts and journeys present their own challenges, and Shimanski approaches them all on a case-by-case basis. From booking the trip to boots on the ground in New Zealand was about as unique and drawn out process as any hunt can be—and when she arrived and started the hunt, that path remained windy and full of unknowns, perseverance and ultimately, success.  

 Shimanski and friends from the industry originally planned to hunt the famed New Zealand landscape with the well-known and respected outfitter Glen Dene Hunting in 2020. However world events meant the once-in-a-lifetime hunt would have to be postponed. Then, New Zealand regulations and other scheduling conflicts pushed the hunt all the way to 2023. The challenge of just getting there was hard enough—but preparing and staying ready meant years of commitment from Shimanski and her hunting companions.  

“This hunt was literally years in the making, but I wouldn’t change a thing,” said Shimanski. “My hunting partners, Glen Dene and the true beauty, challenges and mystique of New Zealand made this hunt one to remember forever. I was proud of my ability to stay physically ready and navigate the trip getting pushed back multiple years.  

“The hunt itself was every bit as challenging physically, but even more so mentally. It had a little bit of everything: weather challenges, wary game, close calls and ultimately hard-earned success. My stag is a personal trophy and physical reminder of the adventure.  However, as all hunters know, it’s also the people you hunt with, the beauty of the terrain and the personal and physical accomplishments that make each hunt memorable and one-of-a-kind.” 

 Shimanski’s hunt, the preparation, planning and how it all unfolded, can be watched, read and experienced on Carbon TV, Savage YouTube and on the Savage website
