"HUNTROMANIA"

15 Muntjac, 9 fallow deer and 2 water deer into the chiller this week.

The evening session was a productive one. Lots of muntjac coming to the call.

Despite gale force winds and some wet weather, the endless supply of Muntjac and Fallow keep coming.

If you’re willing to be flexible and last minute, you can jump on a late season deal or cancellation hunt for a wild area

Do a short hunt in Europe and get used to the time zone, then head somewhere in Africa?

No, I didn’t keep it. He was broken off at the gum line on the other side and not a big fan of them on the wall.

A busy 2 days.

A lot of the wild boar fever hunts are behind fences with stocked wild boar, or premium areas which will cost many many thousands. Many people go on ‘typical’ driven hunts for 3 days and may not get a shot. Average maybe an animal per person per day but you will have many blank days and then...

Agreed

I think it depends on in what environment you want to hunt either species. Fallow bucks in the rut is an amazing experience. Mouflon in the mountains would be a good hunt, but most Mouflon hunts are in the low lands / farm land and not a great hunt experience imo.

Why not head to Scotland? It will give you the challenging hunt, good scenery and you said you aren’t bothered about a trophy head.

Mana pools in Zim is world class photo safari area

End of season clean up day

6 muntjac and a fallow this evening.

later this year in September I am off for 3 days with ‘Winston Churchill Venison’ and then drive up to the Isle of Skye for 2 days with Davie Urquhart of ‘Skye Game. Both are highly recommended. You may also want to look at Scott McKenzie on Skye - had no availability when I enquired. George...

Yes - a quick google and you will see a lot info

You will be paying VAT on every hunt, anywhere in Europe. Most of the time it’s included in the price, but Spain add it on.

I saw lots of Rhino, Elephant, Lion, Cheeta, etc in Etosha.

Eland, Gemsbok and Warthog hunt, plus a photo safari - screams Namibia to me. I did a photographic safari in Namibia 2 years ago and had an excellent time. Happy to chat about it.

Rather than trying to pick a country, I would focus on what experience and animals you want to hunt. Then you can narrow down countries or regions which offer you the animals you want in their native environment, plus determine costs.

I must admit, I have put non CITIES animals in my hold luggage which have been boiled and cleaned and flown them back from a few countries. Especially if mounted on a shield or something, who is to say you didnt buy them at a market, etc.

Yea, I probably should have kept the head on that one. I don’t know why, but water deer don’t appeal to me as a trophy to keep and display. The venison is fantastic though.

Feel free to message me

I’ve never heard of any other way coming out of Africa.

Your bull looks like it was young and had soft bosses - the soft tissue comes away in the skull cleaning process.

Reviving an old thread with the ‘Christmas Eve buck’

I haven’t hunted buffalo (yet), but my instruction to the PH would be if they feel the need to shoot, then shoot. You track and hunt them as a team, sometimes they need bringing down as a team too. Buffalo hunting to me isn’t a place for egos or individuals.

Indeed. I likely shoot double the amount of deer in a single year the average American shoots in a lifetime.

13 deer into the chiller in the last 2 days, including a good buck this morning.

Looks like the same bear. Different lighting - indoor white lights versus outdoor playing a few tricks on the eyes, but the same bear I think. Just badly mounted.

Ive not personally used him (I prefer skull mounts) but I have seen a lot of positive reviews on a UK based deer stalking forum (not allowed to name based on forum rules here) and seen some of his work first hand which looked good. I would advise the OP to use the search function on that forum...

G J Knight taxidermy in Burnham, Essex has a good reputation. You would be driving roughly past on your way down to London from Norfolk. Unsure on shipping to the USA - I have posted boiled and cleaned skulls to Canada no problem but unsure of the steps for skins to the US. I would strongly...

If it were me, I would keep the tear because that represents the animal you shot and your memories. If you wanted it repaired, I’d think it was a very easy job for a taxidermist. BTW - did I miss your hunt report?
