JAPAN: Has Anyone Hunted With Eric Rose In Japan For Sika?

[Mrsinning]

Hi there...
Has any one here been hunting sika with Eric Rose on Hokaido I'm thinking of going, but after Reading the threads here on AH, I would Like to get som Info WHO has been there and done that.

Hope to hear from someone!!!

Not sure if TOM ever made it over. A likely source though.

 

[Mrsinning]

I have written Tom already, but no answer! Maybe there Are others who went for the offer!!

I do hope Tom responds to this with some info.
I had a hunter asking me about this hunt just recently but I had lost all of the info regarding the outfitter.

Don't quote me but I believe there were issues doing this hunt with rifles due to the restrictive circumstances of Japans firearms laws and it was either bow or loaner shotgun (no firearms importation).

im pretty sure it was bow only .....

You got it. Bows, spears and loaner guns only.

If its the outfitter I am thinking of, the hunting report has done a few write ups on this. I belief there was so controversy around this hunt, but I am 99% sure it is bow only.

Where do I find these hunting reports???

**NOT**PERMITTED**.com - there was a quite a bit of discussion around these hunts, the name rose rings a bell to me

Yes I did it back in roughly 2017 with Eric, came home with two nice Stags. Pretty much the biggest Sika in the world and genuine wild models also

PM if you want more details and a review, it's mostly positive.

I remember reading a post a few years ago on another hunting website and was shocked to read the vulgar foul language that Eric used when going back and forth with another member

Best of my recollection, it wasn't even just regular curse words, but really foul stuff

I remember thinking that I wouldn't be around or hunt with a guy like that for free
