Sam The Trap Man On Location
With hilarious anecdotes and antics to rival Kiwi author Barry Crump, Sam Gibson is a modern outdoorsman with an incredible life story to tell.
We're lucky enough to have Sam Gibson, aka Sam the Trap Man in store to talk all about his new book and his bushman life of hunting, fishing, trapping and adventures!
His brand-new book: "Sam the Trap Man." (Which has sat at #3 in the non-fiction best sellers list since its release!) is a series of funny, thrilling, astonishing, and touching yarns about his life and his time in the bush, the story of his life so far.
From shooting his first deer to labouring through freezing cold South Island winters as a young trapper, to the time he woke up somehow covered in blood, each chapter weaves together the story of an incredible life full of adventure, hard work and a deep love for the bush and the native creatures who live in it.
This love of protecting the bush and native creatures is a life's calling for Sam — every decision he makes in the bush helps it to thrive, and it's something we can really get behind and we can't wait to hear Sam talk all about it!
There will be a Q&A too, so come with you questions for Sam!
We can't wait to see you there!

When: Wednesday 13th November 2024.
Where: Further Faster, 57A Buchan St, Sydenham, Christchurch.
Time: Doors open at 6.15 pm for a 6.30 pm start.
Tickets: $15 from Humanitix, all money going to a local charity.

About Sam: he is a trapper and conservation worker who runs the popular Instagram page @sam_the_trap_man with 20k followers. He's spent his life in the bush hunting, trapping and fishing, and has worked for DOC and private conservation companies. In 2019 Sam established the Eastern Whio Link conservation project, restoring whio (native blue duck) to the rivers of the Waioeka on the East Coast, where he grew up. This work is largely done by volunteers and is bearing fruit — the team started with four breeding pairs, which have since birthed 100 chicks, and he reports that the number of whio bobbing in the waters in the area is beginning to increase noticeably.
