G'day all,
Haven't been on the forum much last few months but it hasn't stopped me thinking about hunting abroad any less.
I'm still keen on a hunt for 2021 but just can't decide on what to do.
My ideas are
- Africa focused on free range eland tracking type hunt (probably no.1)
- back pack african hunt (seem pretty rare)
- burning my points for WY on a diy mule deer and antelope hunt
- Europe
- NZ diy
I'm not including Australia because the only things left of interest are too expensive. Money is a factor but not the biggest limitation, a good tough hunting experience is what I'm after.
My only concern for the first 3 is that our dollar to USD is bad enough at the moment that every hunt is 50% more expensive than advertised which makes it tough. Ideally I'd build my points for the US for a few mire years to draw a better unit. Europe I'd love to go back and try for roe somewhere again. NZ is a good cheap option for a diy hunter like myself and is probably leading the charge at the moment where I could spend some time hunting chamois and reds, or whitetail or sika.
Anyway, any suggestions for hunts around the world that will be a reasonable challenge and a reasonable price would be greatly appreciated. Just wanting a good experience to celebrate my birthday that year.
