EXPERIENCE
Welcome to Cruse Deer.
Tom Cruse
Owner of Cruse Deer
​
"I started working in the bush in the 70's and instantly knew I enjoyed being around deer.
What I didn't realise at the time was that it would spur me on to breed deer for most of my life.
Our goal has always been to produce quality breeding and velvet. Watching the results of our hard work has been very rewarding and I'm looking forward to showing you the velvet the new season has to offer."

"I have been around deer all of my life and its exciting to see the results of dads hard work coming through in the velvet weights being produced.
The velvet seems to get better each year and I'm excited to be working with and learning from him.
Feel free to give me a call if you have a query or if you just want to chat about the deer.

TESTIMONIAL
“I have been buying velvet from Tom for the last few years and I think that it is some of the best velvet produced in New Zealand.
His weights are exceptionally large as an average over the whole herd.”
