Fo word the founder
Thank you all !
Thank you, Hunters and Fisherman alike, for your massive support of the outfitters this year.
In my foreword of last year’s Magic Safari Lodges, I requested you to help them out after two pandemic-stricken years with no income and ongoing maintenance costs. Well, reports from all over the world and at all the international shows indicate that the outfitting business is back in full swing.
Unfortunately, the pandemic has not stopped the costs from rising, to the contrary, unseen inflation has hit all aspects of an outfitters organization not to mention the fuel price that has affected the whole supply chain. On the positive side we have seen a lot of operators have used these two years to improve their operational infrastructure. Also, the very limited pressure on the game and fish resources over the past two seasons have resulted in increased numbers and age structure.
Overall, we are all happy that the outfitters out there are providing us again with the great experiences we all seek.
A new phenomenon is rapidly influencing the structural approach of our different associations, namely partnerships. Specifically, Safari Club International has made a great effort to seek alignment with other hunting and/or fishing organizations such as Grand Slam Club/Ovis on such subjects as advocacy, chapters, conventions, memberships, and conservation.
In our combat to preserve our ancestral rights to hunt and fish numbers count and collaboration gives the strength in action.
These initiatives are not limited to North America as there has also an agreement been signed between SCI and Cinegetica Spain for conducting jointly hunting fairs. This is the world’s largest alliance to promote the hunter’s way of life and will continue to defend conservation and the hunting culture under a common slogan ¨United for Conservation. ¨
Other partnerships, both in Europe and the USA, have formed. Most notably several international shooting sports clubs have joined in with existing hunting organizations for common promotion.
FACE, the voice of European Hunters (7million members), launched a successful campaign ¨SignForHunting¨ with the EU commissioner for Environment in support for the Nature Restoration Proposal with as objective to move Europe’s conservation focus from species protection and protected areas to restoration of habitats which is key for recovering biodiversity. Without the collaboration of all national organizations within the FACE framework such successes would have been impossible.
This brings me to my final topic which could be food for thought to all.
The President of the French Federation of Hunters has broadened the scope of their membership by opening up to the fishermen, the outdoors people and most important the farmers, all this under one common denominator called ¨la ruralité¨ literally translated as rurality.
His group is supposed to become very powerful and will have a serious political impact. They wish to restore the common sense of the countryside in opposition to the city bureaucrats who decide on new laws without sufficient knowledge of the terrain.
All this seems very promising and therefore we need to stay united…

Scandinavian Pro Hunters
Unique Geese shooting
In Skåne, we offer fantastic goose hunting on and around our hunting lodge Markie Hage. The best conditions for these hunts are often diffcult to predict, but when the big migration of birds are coming to our areas we are then normally seeing ten thousands of geese in a day, so those who are lucky enough to be able to participate may be rewarded with the goose hunt of their lives. There are no bag limit so every year we are having days with 200 plus geese in a day!
World class Roebucks in Skane, South Sweden
It is no coincidence that Swedish Roebuck are classifed as the most beautiful buck in the world. Tall, slender, and symmetric, they will provide you with an awesome trophy that will most certainly fnd a prominent spot in your home. Scandinavian Prohunters have the best privately owned properties in the Southern part of Sweden / Skane where we every year shoot big gold medal bucks. The hunt is out from our charming hunting lodge.

Hunt Trip France
In the hunting industry for decades we have organized small game or also called wing shooting and big game hunting for species such as red deer, roe deer, moufon sheep, fallow deer and wild boar.
Hunt trip France has three prime hunt locations outside of Paris and all offers luxury rooms and some beautiful accommodations.
Their most popular location is a 50 min drive outside of Paris and is an estate with a classic XII century French castle. This is the home of Anne-Sophie & Alexandre. The estate lies in beautiful surroundings in the Vexin region between Paris and the Normandy region. Their two other estates are prime for big game hunting and wing shooting and are less than two hours from Paris. In total this is 2150 hectares (5 300 acre) waiting for your next hunting trip in France. www.hunt-trip-france.com

Great Spanish Hunts
The red-legged partridge is a endemic to Spain considered the most sporting and challenging bird in the world?by hunters due to its beauty, audacity and fast and erratic fight. The driven partridge shoot is a shooting style with a long and deeply rooted tradition in Spain, which allows the hunter to enjoy the red-legged partridge in a far more challenging way, since the speed and height reached are unbeatable, putting more than one expert wing shooter to the test.
Our shoots are some of the best and most famous in the country. Groups of 3 to 10 guns usually bag around 1,000 birds per day or even double that amount depending on their shooting skills.
Thanks to the wide range of estates we manage and their diverse and beautiful landscapes we are able to offer some of the most spectacular and challenging drives to be found in Spain. Featuring birds with fast and erratic fight, both low and high fying, we can offer drives that allow hunters to enjoy very varied and challenging shoots. A pair of 12 and 20 bore double-barrel matched shot

About the Alberta Professional Out tters Society (APOS)
In 1997, the Alberta Professional Out tters Society (APOS) was established as a delegated administrative organization (DAO) for the Government of Alberta. APOS’ delegated responsibilities include licensing the province’s hunting guides and professional out tters, managing the distribution of guided hunting allocations, and holding members accountable to a Code of Ethics. We provide members with competitive liability insurance, a voice within government, and advocacy on key issues. APOS represents over 500 professional out tters and handles licensing for nearly 1,600 hunting guides.
About Alberta
Alberta is a hunter’s paradise, featuring a wide variety of big game and bird game species. Some of the game you will nd in Alberta are moose, black bear, elk, bighorn sheep, white-tailed deer, mule deer, antelope, cougar, wolf, bison, waterfowl, and upland game birds. An astounding 1,708 animals from Alberta have quali ed for the Boone and Crockett Club’s (B&C) record book. The fact that 749 of these entries are animals taken since 2000 is a testament to the quality of wildlife available in our province.
The diverse terrain in Alberta allows for hunting styles suited to each individual hunter. Whether you are looking to experience the high peaks of the Rockies, the vast expanse of the prairies or the majestic boreal forest, Alberta’s out tters have a hunt for you. APOS members operate an array of accommodation options with everything from cozy lodges to backcountry tenting. There’s so much to see and do here in Alberta, one week simply won’t be enough: you’ll want to take your time, explore what Alberta has to o er for guests of all ages, and share your experiences here with your family and friends.

When you book a black bear hunt, whitetail deer hunt, Canada moose hunt, free range bison hunt and wolf hunt with Boss Out tting, you will hunt untouched remote wilderness areas where trophy class big game live.
For hunting black bears, we get out to where the big ones live, and we hunt them hard! Boss Out tting regularly has bears over 6’ and 400 lbs, and we always strive to put a 7’ bear in front of you!
We also o er hunts for the wild, native, free-ranging woods bison that live in scenic northern Alberta, Canada. The bison have always existed in this range and have never been pushed out of the area by man. We know of nowhere else in North America where you can hunt native, free ranging bison in their natural habitat.
Whitetail deer hunting in Alberta is world-renowned. Our hunting area is well known for producing world class bucks and continues to ll the record books with big deer year after year! It is not uncommon to see whitetail deer in the 150”-180” class.
You can also join us for a wolf hunting experience to remember. Very few avid hunters have accomplished the rare feat of harvesting a Canada wolf. Timber wolves are a prized trophy and are by nature, extremely elusive. We have a large population of wolves throughout Alberta and harvesting one of these predators is a real challenge and very exciting.
Boss Out tting o ers you the hunting adventure of a lifetime.

OutfiAersBIRCH MOUNTAIN
My name is Charles Beauchamp owner operator. Of Birch Mountain Out tter. I started hunting at the age of 12. With my dad’s friends that were out tters hunting Moose on river trips or y out to camps. This when I fell in love with the wilderness trips and going into remote areas to hunt. In 1978 I became a licensed hunting guide. I worked for other hunting out tters till 1992.
In 1992 I became an Out tter in the North of Alberta the Fort McMurray area where I live. Fort McMurray is located 200 km north of any farmland. The areas that I hunt are very remote and is a vast wilderness. To do this kind of business you have to have a love for the wilderness and be devoted to doing a lot of work in the wilderness.
It takes many hours of background work for very hour hunted from cutting trails and building camp and per baiting bears. And organizing the equipment and food.
With past clients commenting that I run a 5-star bush hotel. I have clients from Germany, Austria, Denmark, USA and now China. We have home cooked meals in all camps. And warm places to sleep. Good food, Good Camps and Good Hunting.
Spring Black Bear Hunting is done from one main camp. With Black Bear baits with High seats in a radius of 60 km of camp. The Black Bear population is Very High. It is not if you will shoot a Black Bear but how Big of a Black Bear you will get.
Moose Hunting is done in two main areas with small spike camp in in the area close to lakes that hold the Moose in those areas. The client will move between the spike camps. To give each Hunter the best possibility of shooting a Trophy Bull Moose.
Bison Hunting is done when in late fall and winter. This is when the Bison have the best Fur. The camp is in the area of the Bison and it is a spot and stock hunt. These are Wild Bison and do not know what a fence is.

We are Driftwood Valley Out tters. We have been operating since 1987, as a family run business, in the north of British Columbia, Canada.
The diverse landscape that we enjoy has many beautiful mountains, lakes, rivers and an abundance of wildlife. High in the alpine is where the goats reside along with some high-country black bears. The green spaces in the spring and the huckleberry covered hillsides in the fall are where the black bears reside. The lake & river country is where the moose spent most of the year feeding on aspen, willow and water plants. The grizzly bears and wolves roam in all these di erent habitats and utilize any opportunity that presents itself.
The mountain goat hunt is spent in the high alpine where we enjoy the majestic views during the late summer and into the fall. There are a few di erent ways to hunt goats with various methods of accommodation. For the adventurous the backpack tent hunt is the way to go, exciting & challenging from beginning to end, wandering the mountains with a light camp. For the hunter who prefers the comforts of a cabin we have a base camp high up on an alpine lake. Mountain goat hunts are never easy, but the alpine lake provides a good place to recover.
The Black Bear hunt takes place in the spring just as the clover and dandelions starts to grow on the side roads and in the open areas. This provides the optimal opportunities to see the bears as they come out of hibernation looking for greens. The method of hunting here is spot-and-stalk from the vehicle or walking the bush roads or glassing the hillsides. The Moose hunt is most productive during the rut, right in the middle of the fall season. Waking up to frost covered meadows the crisp morning air lets you really enjoy the Canadian wilderness. Here sitting in clearings; glassing and calling or from a lake shore is the most assured approach to hunt.
Our trapline adventures take place amid the Canadian winters. You get to stay in a little trapper cabin on the trapline in the bush. The activities include accompanying the licensed trapper; helping build sets and traps and checking the trapline every day for bounty.
No matter what option you decide upon the experience will be unforgettable. The memories made in the Canadian wilderness are one of a kind.

In the late 1970’s Great White Holdings was founded by Lloyd McMahon with the rm belief that Alberta was home to the best trophy whitetail and waterfowl hunting in the world. Many years later the same belief holds true and has been con rmed by the number of successful hunts, huge trophies and return clients.
Over the years our operation has expanded to include mule deer, black bear, Western Canadian moose, Alaska Yukon moose, Barren ground caribou, grizzly bear and predatory K9 hunts. Great White is a family owned and operated business.
It is currently run by Lloyd and his son, Jon McMahon. Both Lloyd & Jon are full time professional out tters and guides, avid hunters, shermen and outdoors men.
Lloyd & Jon pride themselves in o ering the best locations in North America to hunt. Great White’s lodges have been strategically placed across the province and Alaska in the best areas for quality trophies and large numbers of game.
The lodges o er comfortable accommodations, pleasant sta and great home cooked meals. With an average of 80% return clients each year, hunting dates book quickly.

North River Out tting is a small, family-run out tting business operated by Ron Nemetchek and Maria Origoni. That family feel is extended to our guides, sta and our hunters. When you join us on a hunt in this spectacular and remote part of British Columbia, you will feel at home and welcomed into our hunting family. That same care, hard work and attention to detail goes into everything we do.
This is Ron’s 38th year in the out tting business. In addition to starting his own business, Ron has guided big game hunts all over North America, including Alaska. Ron has been ying since he was 18 and his experience as a pilot makes our operation very unique in British Columbia. From our remote main lodge, Ron can shuttle small loads into even more remote locations, setting up camps in places that would be unfeasible for anyone else.
Maria Origoni joined the North River Out tting team more than 10 years ago. Having run her own business in Alberta, Maria has brought her excellent organizational strengths and focus on customer service to the out tting business. Additionally, Maria is an excellent cook! Maria is from Switzerland and she speaks English, Swiss, German and Italian.
Together, Ron and Maria are proud of the excellent wilderness experience they o er to their clients in Alberta and British Columbia. Their tireless work, attention to detail and client-oriented approach are why so many hunters return each year. At North River Out tting, we o er hunts of unmatched quality. We boast outstanding success in our harvest. Much of that success has to do with the area we are blessed to hunt. But a great deal of our success comes in how we manage it. We take far fewer hunters than this area can support. There’s a good chance that when we y you into a remote camp for your hunt, that area hasn’t been hunted in years. Our hunting area is massive, it’s remote, and it is game-rich.
Our British Columbia hunts o er the ultimate in a wilderness experience. We hunt the most remote part of B.C. at the far northern end of the province. From our main lodge, you will y to your remote hunting location. There’s no messing around with horses or long days in the saddle. In a 20-minute ight, you’ll be in an area that is so remote, the animals you see may never have encountered another human.
This is the ultimate wilderness hunt. We have the success and the trophy quality to prove it. Nowhere else will you nd such quality moose, stone sheep, mountain goat, mountain caribou and grizzly all in the same area and without any hunting pressure.
North River Out tters is also specialized to make you and your family discover the rich and spectacular wilderness in this remote part of British Columbia.
Discover the great outdoors, wildlife and wonders of the nature and make memories of a life time with your family.

I have owned my Alberta out tting business for over 28 years. At North Star Out tting we personally guide whitetail deer hunts, mule deer hunts, black bear hunts, moose hunts and waterfowl hunts. When you book a hunt with us you will be accompanied by a professional hunter who is focused on the speci c species you are hunting. We know what it takes to make your hunt successful and enjoyable.
Bear hunts
We have been providing black bear hunts in Alberta for over 28 years. Hunt big bruin blacks and colored bears in the spring and fall, no bugs, 5 star lodge, eat like a king and sleep like a rock - that’s what you can expect when you come black bear hunting with North Star Out tters! Our fall black bear hunts are spot & stalk only. We hunt them in the corn elds and oat elds in September and October.
I own 90% of the permits therefore I hold the key to managing the black bear hunting in this area. I have 50% color phase bears with 25% harvested being colored phased bears over 6 foot and 25% of the black bears harvested are over 7ft with 20” plus skulls. During the spring hunts, you will see between 8-12 bears in a evening and in a full week you will see up towards of 40-50 bears. Our spring bear hunts are over bait which allows you to size the bear more e ciently. Fall bear hunts may be added to our early season deer, moose hunts and waterfowl hunts.
Moose Hunts
Our hunting area is about 500,000 acres of farmland and boreal forest. The area we hunt makes this a relatively easy hunt and not physically challenging.
Moose rut hunt for archery hunters only.
The moose are very active this time of year and respond very well to cow calls. The larger bulls are usually taken on this hunt averaging 40 inches. We take a minimum number of hunters per season during this time to keep success rates very high. Our rut moose hunt can also be combined with our fall black bear hunts for bow hunters. November post-rut moose hunts are for ri e hunters only.
This is a great time to hunt Alberta moose. After the rut is over the bulls are more social, often seen in bachelor groups. Here we are hunting a lot of the farmland, in the canola and alfalfa elds. We see between 5 to 10 moose per day, cows, calves and bulls, with an average bull of 40 inch. November moose hunt can be combined with a whitetail deer rut hunt for old mature bucks.

Wilderness moose hunts in Alberta, Canada
We o er top quality moose hunts in Alberta’s most remote, untouched wilderness on the edge of the rocky mountains with little hunting pressure. If you want a great chance at a 5O” bull, this hunts for you! Our all-inclusive moose hunts are during the rut in late September and early October. We hunt by calling the big bulls in close. To have a moose come to a call is one of the most exciting moments you can ever have hunting. The moose in our area can grow over 60” and can be very spectacular with long, wide paddles, and big fronts! SaskAdrenaline Out tters have taken multiple moose in this area that have exceeded the Boone and Crockett minimum!
Peak Of The Rut Moose Hunt
These general season moose tags come into e ect the day after archery season ends. These tags are very limited and give you the opportunity to hunt the peak of the rut with any weapon, and the temperatures falling below freezing. This is the very best time to hunt these incredible animals with plenty of bull moose seen and heard during the course of your hunt. A 50” bull is very attainable at this time and with only three permits a year we try to target some big bulls! This combo hunt includes seven days of fully guided moose, whitetail, mule deer and wolf hunting, wall tent accommodations, meals, plus trophy preparation.
Archery Moose Hunt
The only thing more exciting than hunting giant bull moose in the rut, is doing it with nothing but the old stick and string! Moose hunting at this time of the year can sometimes be the most productive when the bulls are just starting to search for cows. A lone bull is more susceptible to come into a cow call than one that has already found a mate and depending on the mood he’s in you may get quite the show! Generally your best times to hunt are early morning and just before dark but if you get some cooler weather especially mixed with some precipitation the hunting can be incredible all day. This combo hunt includes seven days of fully guided moose, whitetail, mule deer and wolf hunting, wall tent accommodations, meals, plus trophy preparation.
Accommodations put you right in their backyard
We take a lot of pride in our camps and make sure you are kept comfortable while enjoying the wilderness experience. Our camps are kept neat, clean, and organized with generator power complete with lights, plugins, and a few electronic comforts of home. Each tent has cots and a wood stove with a well-stocked wood pile. Bring a nice warm sleeping bag, as nights may get down into the ‘teens! While at camp we make sure you are well fed, warm, and dry. Our camps are set up right in the area of the animals we are hunting. Camp is o the beaten path but easily accessible.

Originally constructed of native logs in 1980, Winefred Lake Lodge started as Alberta’s rst y-in shing lodge. In the mid to late 1980’s, a primitive trail from Lac La Biche was constructed utilizing trails and right-of-ways created by Alberta’s Oil & Gas and Forestry industries, now making Winefred Lake Lodge a remote drive-in facility.
Winefred Lake Lodge is now a family operated business operated by father and son, Jon & LLoyd McMahon, and is still well regarded for its spectacular shing. Guests can enjoy everything from “do it yourself” day trips on Winefred lake to week long fully guided adventures. While initially coming to sh and/or enjoy the outdoors, after a few days it is not uncommon to nd our guests reading a good book on our expansive deck, telling stories around a camp re, viewing the plentiful game, or simply relaxing in our outdoor hot-tub.
While Winefred Lake boasts some of the nest trophy shing in Alberta, consistently producing large Northern Pike and Walleye, they also o er pristine wilderness hunting & viewing. Surrounded by miles of Boreal forest that is home to the best trophy black bear and Western Canadian moose and deer hunting Canada has to o er.
Management & sta of Winefred Lake Lodge pledge to o er their guests the best outdoor experience in Alberta. Whether you’re a seasoned outdoor enthusiast with a passion for world-class shing, an avid hunter or if you’re just looking for some time away from your hectic lifestyle, Winefred Lake Lodge is an ideal location to relax and enjoy a true Alberta wilderness experience.

WildHunting in Turkey is owned and managed by the Ekenler Family and currently run by two brothers, Kürşat and Temir. They are both extremely keen young hunters and have hunted extensively throughout Turkey and abroad. The Ekenler family has been landowners in Tarsus, Cukurova area for more than 300 years. Hunting is a family tradition, proudly passed from father to son and nally to us. We have always had a passion for the wild; This has been supported by their father who took Temir and Kürşat with him to many hunts all over the world. With some of the world’s nest species on our doorstep, we have naturally concentrated on big game hunting. WildHunting o ers a total of 6 speacies of big game, which are natively found only on Turkish hunting land, this makes the hunting unique!
1) Anatolian Bezoar Ibex
4) Anatolian Red Deer
2) Anatolian Konya Sheep 3) Anatolian Chamois
5) Anatolian Urfa Gazelle 6) Anatolian Wild Boar
Our family has controlled the shooting in large areas of the Taurus Mountains for generations. We therefore operate as a private family hunting estate, rather than an agent buying from di erent concessions all over the region. As a result, we have controlled, conserved and developed our areas in a manner that we believe to be unique in the whole country. This approach is key to our way of maintaining the highest standards in everything we do.
Anatolian Bezoar Ibex: is a very popular big game of our mountains and has a very special reputation amongst hunters from around the World and a very challenging and special hunt for us. We have managed to protect and control the game by careful selective shooting and are proud to say that we have some of Turkey’s nest trophy Ibex hunting – with trophies that most can only dream about. We have averaged 44’’(110cm) over the past hunting years and harvest more than a few trophies between 48’’ – 52’’(120-130cm). We have also been living this dream of ethical, sporting hunting, conserving both the game and our wonderful natural environment, for ourselves, our clients and our guests, now and in the future.
Anatolian Wild Boar: is the most common big game and a very exciting hunt for our hunting guests; since Turkey produces the biggest boars in the World with body size exceeding 200-250kg and tusks measuring between 24-30cm. We have been organizing and carrying out hunts for our guests, with a very experienced and trained team for over 20 years.
We do not over promise, over sell or over hunt. Our family reputation is far too important for that. This experience, applied to the management of our home estates, equips us to provide you with the hunting trip of a lifetime.
OUR EXTENSIVE WORLDWIDE HUNTING EXPERIENCE MEANS THAT; WE SEE THE TRIP FROM A CLIENTS EYES, WHICH WE THINK IS VITAL!
Please visit our website and write Temir or Kursat an e-mail to start exploring your next hunting adventure with WildHunting in TURKEY!

WILDHUNTING IN ASIA
The Ekenler Brothers started their CENTRAL ASIAN out tting hunting operation few years ago due to very high demand from their clients and friends. After many years of extensive researching and countless hours of eld work, they managed to partner up with the best operators in CENTRAL ASIA, which in result has created exceptionally high quality hunting trips to be among the nest in CENTRAL ASIA.
Our friends and clients prefer to hunt with us for the following reasons:
*Instead of dealing with foreign operators or western agents, they book with someone they know well and fully trust.
*Since most CENTRAL ASIAN countries are Turkic, we have better understanding of their culture (Turks emigrated from Central Asia to Anatolia about thousand years ago)
*We personally accompany and guide all our hunters on these hunts.
*We strive to give the same level of service and hunting experience that we provide in Turkey.
The countries in Asia that we out t hunts in are as follows: Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia and Pakistan

Fishing the legendary Skeleton Coast
Set in the magical town of Henties Baai, on the edge of the Namib Desert, Fisherman’s Guesthouse welcomes shermen and tourists alike. The lodge is the ultimate destination from which to experience the shore angling adventure of a lifetime. This beautiful lodge o ers unforgettable accommodation a mere 200 metres from the beach. Listen to the sea, enjoy fresh air and cool evenings. Experience the di erent recipes for the catch of the day, accompanied by a glass of local wine. The nine comfortable rooms promise a good night’s sleep before the big shing day.
Louis Fenaux, our professional sherman, will take you out on an unforgettable angling adventure. The once-in-a-lifetime experience is to catch a bronze copper shark (all the way up to 260 kg) from the sandy beach. You do not need to be an expert though, but let’s just say that the size of your shark will be determined by your patience and wisdom during this ght and not by strength or technique. Once the shark has been hooked, the pro will guide you on how to haul the catch in.
If you want to change to edible sh for a day, you can catch big cobs as well as some locals, such as steenbras, galjoen or snoek. For the youngsters, the smaller sharks such as spotted gully shark are a good initiation before tackling the real stu .
Other activities our team performs are desert tours in 4x4, dune races on quads or shopping in Swakopmund and its harbour Walvis Baai.
Fishing the mighty Zambezi and the mysterious Okavango
There are di erent ways to discover the unspoiled beauty of the Caprivi strip, locked-in between the Okavango and Zambezi rivers. They provide the perfect backdrop for some of the most unforgettable shing experiences imaginable. We elected to build a lodge along the Okavango near Popa Falls. The shing takes place up- or downstream from the lodge, guided by an experienced sherman in a small but safe outboard boat.
The main attraction is obviously the tiger sh; people travel the world just to ght this prehistoric-looking sh. Other species are di erent sorts of bream or buddle sh, and the area is also home to two rare sh species: the broadhead cat sh and occelated spinyeel.
Non- shing activities include game drives into the Mgango game reserve or Caprivi National Park and boat trips on the river to view hippos and crocodiles.
In contrast, the Zambezi has a lot more people living along its shores. A few years ago, we started to charter a houseboat in order to organise our shing trips onto the river from this base. Experience taught us that the houseboat provided exibility to move up and downstream, depending on sh density. Our success rate also went up tremendously. Although houseboat life is quite a di erent experience, all our guests just love it.

Many y shermen travel the world in search of opportunities to catch big wild trout. While this search might take them all over the globe, New Zealand is one of the rare places where an array of y shing experiences are available in an easy-to-access, California-sized chunk of land.
Flying over a breathtaking saddle or pass in the mountains, and then up or down a river to a landing spot is always highly memorable. After you get dropped o and the “bird” leaves, a notable silence will descend, reminding you that you are in the middle of nowhere and the only sounds of the day will be the movement of water, the breeze in the trees, and the splash of a leaping sh miraculously attached to your line. By 5 or 6pm or whatever time you arranged, the distant sound of the helicopter begins to get louder and it nds you a few miles upstream, standing on a gravel bar with lots of room for a safe landing, and you’ll shortly be ying back to dinner with a few stories to share.
Sparkling streams, staggering landscapes - angling in New Zealand is equal parts challenging and rewarding, placing you rmly at one with nature. Helicopter shing trips o er a wide variety of exclusive opportunities o the beaten track. Our skilful pilots will deposit you deep inland or up in the mountains, stalking some of the biggest trout in the country. Many rivers overshadowed by their larger counterparts, that would take days to walk to, y mostly under the radar – you could be the rst to sh their untouched waters all season. This is the sort of extraordinary experience that makes happy anglers return year after year to visit Venator. The lodge, guides, and helicopter company all work together to make sure that the rivers get well rested between visits to help ensure great expeditions.
Here, you can base yourself our luxury lodge Cardrona Terraces, taking o right in front of your room and being whisked back in time for a sumptuous dinner. The beauty of New Zealand is that you’re only ever a short drive or ight away from countless other spectacular sights and activities. A day of shing is easily followed by a day of gol ng, kayaking, hiking, or wining and dining.

The Central African Republic is undoubtedly one of Africa’s most famous big game hunting countries. It is home to two of the continent’s most iconic antelope species: Derby’s eland in the savannah and the bongo in the forest. Their hunt, a unique quest in the life of an African hunter, is a real challenge.
Despite many years of unrest in the country, National Safari has not ceased its hunting activity in the eld. Their territory completely in the East of the country o ers by its location and its remoteness a natural protection to the hunters wishing to live an extraordinary adventure. The hunting area of more than 1,000,000 Ha is bordered by the Vovodo river and is made up of a multitude of di erent biotopes: savannah, wooded plateaus, large mountains and especially the mythical Central African ‘bakos’, forest galleries rich in unbelievable fauna. National Safari will immerse its hunters in the atmosphere of the great safaris of yesteryear where many areas of the territory have not yet been trodden by man. From a base camp along the river, hunters will be able to set o on a ying expedition in search of emblematic and mythical species: bongo, giant forest hog, yellow-backed duiker, leopard, savannah bu alo, Derby eland, roan, bush pig. Come with us and experience the last great African adventures.
La Centrafrique est sans conteste l’un des pays d’Afrique de grande chasse les plus réputés. Il héberge deux espèces d’antilopes parmi les plus emblématiques de ce continent : l’éland de Derby en savane et le bongo en forêt. Leur chasse, quête unique dans la vie d’un chasseur africain, relève d’un véritable dé . Malgré de nombreuses années de troubles dans le pays, National Safari n’a pas cessé son activité de chasse sur le terrain. Leur territoire complètement à l’Est du pays o re par sa situation et son éloignement une protection naturelle aux chasseurs désireux de vivre une aventure hors norme.

A Safari Like No Other
“If there was one more thing I could do, it would be to go on safari once again.”
Mozambique’s famed Zambezi delta region is known for its game-rich hunting environment. Our Mahimba big-game hunting area, located on the northern fringes of the delta, is a prime area comprised of lush coastal forests, dense riverine vegetation, palm savanna, pans and papyrus swamps. This unique area o ers the discerning hunter a true safari experience, very di erent from other areas in the country.
Mahimba is a Cape bu alo hunter’s paradise with this being the primary quarry on most visitor’s wish-lists. Hunted on foot in the traditional manner, clients will have ample opportunity to nd the bu alo bull of their dreams, either in the open palm-studded savannas or in the dense thickets that are sure to give the most intrepid hunter an adrenalin rush. The endemic Roosevelt’s sable, long-horned Common waterbuck, and graceful Common reedbuck are all found at Mahimba in abundance. Mahimba is especially known for plentiful bushpigs—often taken during the day—exceptional warthogs, and monster Chobe bushbuck.
Crocodile and hippo are hunted while traversing the meandering Macarau River which ows into the nearby Indian Ocean. This tidal river is home to hundreds of crocodiles which come out to bask during low tide. Hunters wanting to collect nyala and some of the “tiny ten” species can combine their standard safari with time spent at a nearby concession for Red duiker, Livingstone suni, oribi, Blue duiker, nyala, and more.
Hunting Season – August 1 – November 30
Due to its proximity to the Indian Ocean and heavy seasonal rains early in the year, the hunting season at Mahimba runs from August 1 – November 30. This gives the bush time to dry out and the controlled burning of tall elephant grass to take place, making it ideal for hunters to access all sections of the hunting area in pursuit of their quarry with the greatest levels of success.

Namibia has the largest diversity of biotopes in all of Africa, ranging from deserts such as the Kalahari and the world’s oldest, the Namib Desert, to red-coloured dunes (Sossusvlei) and sandy beaches along the Skeleton Coast or then again the subtropical marshes between the Okavango and the Zambezi.
Twenty years of experience have taught us that all our guests like to discover all the di erent parts of this magical country, either by hunting or shing in the di erent places. Therefore we o er you two hunting and two shing destinations which we own or operate. Several combinations are possible, depending on the season, your availability and your mode of transport, all of which we would be more than happy to study together with you.
Hunting the grandiose Etosha area and the massive Damaraland
The southern border of Etosha National Park is well-known to hunters for its great variety of plains game. Our privately owned land covers a diverse landscape consisting of Mopani forests, dry river beds, acacia woodlands, plains, mountains, valleys and pans.
You can hunt exceptional trophies and experience the magic of real hunting. Gold medals can be obtained for gemsbok, kudu and mountain zebra. The Damara dik-dik and the black-faced impala are even exclusive to this area. Leopards and cheetahs are considered the jewels of Etosha.
We have three types of accommodations, each giving you di erent experiences on your safari. One way is using our African safari lodge with all the ve-star amenities typical to the Southern African triangle and with an uninterrupted view of the surrounding valleys and plains. For a more typical hunting atmosphere, we use a camp with several thatched rondawels, decorated with local artwork and en suite bathrooms. For those nostalgic for an ‘Out of Africa’ atmosphere, we o er a live version in the tented camp where as the night falls the bush comes alive.
More to the west lies the Damaraland concession. As no xed settlements are allowed, we use our 4x4 and tents to set up ycamps in a moonlike environment.
All meals are served around a crackling re under the clear African sky or under thatch in the central lapa, with unique game dishes. On the day you wish to take a rest from hunting, it is possible to go for a game drive in Etosha National Park or simply relax around the swimming pool and the spa of the main lodge.

Hunting the Kalahari dunes and Namib Desert
South of Windhoek we own two hunting territories, each very representative of their speci c biotopes. The Kalahari property features a combination of 74 sequential red sand dunes with the equivalent number of valleys stretching each over a kilometre wide. It is an amazing sensation to hunt in such countryside, as each dune hides a new spectacle of animals grazing in the next valleys.
Here you can hunt mostly grazers such as springbok, gemsbok and wildebeest, all medal quality. Again accommodation can be provided in three di erent types of camps: the luxurious safari lodge with ve-star facilities such as pool, spa and restaurant; the comfortable bungalow of the hunting camp with its magic lapa and boma; or nally, real bush life in a tented camp.
A few hours eastwards, towards the Botswana border, we have a desert property which again is a totally di erent view from the Kalahari. Montana like grass plains contrast with the red hills which seem imported from Arizona. Hunting tactics change 100% since here the hunter and the animals have little space to hide. Cheetah, leopard and hyena are abundant in this area. The accommodation is in a typical thatched lodge uniquely decorated in a hunting atmosphere. All game here is natural resident game.
What’s the best season for hunting?
There is no good, better or best time. There is only a period that is less comfortable because of high temperatures and a period less favourable to hunting.
Therefore, we suggest:
Etosha region: March till October
Damara land: June till September
Kalahari: April till October
Namib Desert: April till September

Mylpaal is a unique hunting destination, thanks to its unparalleled combination of genuine African bush spirit and western standards of luxury, safety and particular pride in organization.
Mylpaal means “important stage” in Afrikaans, and, being a region of natural transhumance and a true biodiversity sanctuary, your stay here will undoubtedly remain engraved in your heart as one of the most signi cant stages in your life.
Our luxury hunting lodge is situated between two of the most famous wildlife places in the world: Etosha National Park and the Okavango region. The fertile oodplains and lush countryside here feel like a mirage after the dry air and dusty plains of southern Namibia, making it ideal for wildlife spotting and bird watching.
The private area of Mylpaal covers 10,000 hectares and is home to 25 game species. On the border of Bushmenland and Caprivi, our private reserve is a stunning example of the natural, untouched areas and landscapes so desired by adventure enthusiasts.
Your hunting experience
Along with its prime location, consummately professional game management makes Mylpaal a game-rich hunting paradise for ri e as well as bow hunters. Thanks to our sustainable hunting practices and our conservation work, you will nd a large number of old trophy animals. We welcome a maximum of 20 hunters a year in order to ensure a low hunting pressure and the selection of mature trophies. The result has been astonishing: so far we have only taken medal class, SCI or Roland Ward record trophies.
Our preferred hunting method is stalking. Depending on the quarry species and physical abilities of the hunter, however, we also hunt from blinds and tree stands. We have brand new ri es with high quality scopes available for hire, should you wish to borrow a rearm. Every one of our professional hunters is not only a Namibia Professional Hunting Association (NAPHA) member, but most importantly an avid hunter who is always paying attention to detail.
Our focus lies on plains game hunting, but we also o er big game hunts in the Caprivi region in cooperation with rst class big game organizations.

Experience true Africa with Nel Safaris.
We strive to bring you the most incredible hunting experience. Based in Botswana, our plains game hunts mainly cover the coveted and beautiful Tuli Block, which borders the Limpopo river, in eastern Botswana. We hunt Elephant in northern Botswana where these majestic beasts roam free and offer a challenging but rewarding hunt. Game here is rife and we offer both rifle and bow hunting on wild animals making your hunt truly magical.
We want to help you create lifelong memories; the African sun beating on your back with a rifle slung over your shoulder in pursuit of African game, then coming back to camp in the evening to sit around the fire, eating delicious food and talking so fondly of your day.
Although most of our operations are out of Botswana, depending on what animals you would like, we also offer hunting in the free range mountains in the Eastern Cape of South Africa as well as the sand dunes of the Kalahari, so you know whatever you strive for we can make it happen.
We are owner operated and take pride in giving one-on-one attention and tailored experiences to each of our clients.

AOMALANGA
Africa and especially Namibia is fascinating. You will be personally hosted by the Schwalm family – they have a long tradition in professional hunting and guarantee an individual experience with impressions that can otherwise only be found on postcards. As a partner, the Forst Eibenstein Africa Unit also guarantees an individual service and process.
Omalanga has a romantic lodge on its privately owned land. A permit is required for the hunt, which will be organized for you. Individual requests for trophy hunting can be arranged if you reserve enough time in advance.
Including our concessions, the total hunting area exceeds 70.000 hectares, with more than 30 game species. Age related and sustaineable hunting practices, ensure matured trophies. After calibrating your weapon, the hunt begins in Namibia‘s varied landscape. Bene t from the many years of experience and approach of our professional hunting guides.
Of course, the WCFE sustainability will also be applied here. It is therefore also a matter of course that non-hunting guests and participants of photo safaris can have an unforgettable experience with us. Like all partners of Forst Eibenstein, we wish:
Come as a guest - stay as a friend!

My decision to become a professional hunter was mainly due to the stories which my grandfather used to tell me as a youngster about the bush and his hunting days.
After completion of my schooling, I began my career as a professional hunter, got married and was blessed with two wonderful children, Josh age 18 and Abbi age 16. Josh is helping me to run my business now and is keen to learn as much as he can.
My career has spanned over some 30 years and I still have the same excitement and drive as I did on my very rst day hunting with clients.
During this period, I have gained a vast wealth of knowledge of the bush, wildlife, birds, and trees. I hold a full Professional Hunter & Guide License in Zimbabwe and Mozambique, and have hunted extensively all over the country. I am extremely passionate about my work, and this is what has deemed me as successful Hunter & Guide today.
I am the current Chairman, and actively involved with the ZPGA (Zimbabwe Professional Guides Association), along with being the founder and trustee of GAP (Guides Against Poaching). I am an examiner for the Association that works alongside our local Nations Parks Authority that issues the Hunting & Guiding licenses, as well as being a member of APHA (African Professional Hunters Association) and a DSC (Dallas Safari Club) life member.
Rob Lurie Safaris strives to give you an African bush experience of a lifetime, peppered with exciting adventures, memories, gettogethers and great trophies at the end.
Camp res are always burning and ready for when the day is over for the group to sit around the re, and share their stories under a clear star lled African night sky. These intermit gatherings forge life lasting friendships and repeat hunts.
Rob Lurie Safaris prides itself on the number of repeat clients, which, it is believed, is due to the very personalized service o ered. We operate all over Africa, but are based mainly in Zimbabwe with our own exclusive concession in the Savé Valley Conservancy. This allows us to specialize in big game hunts, for example, lion, leopard, bu alo, elephant, including all the plains game.
It is of course possible to hunt bu alo in other parts of Zimbabwe, not forgetting that Zimbabwe’s lakes and rivers are home to various aquatic animals, namely crocodiles and hippos.
Rob Lurie Safaris also has a concession in Northern Zambia on a private property for you to hunt: Zambezi Sitatunga, Kafue Lechwe, Puku, Blue Duiker and others.
All of us at Rob Lurie Safaris look forward to hearing from you and tailoring a magical, unforgettable, and memorable safari for you.

Uganda is located on the East African Plateau, averaging about 1,100 meters (3,600 feet) above sea level, which slopes steadily downwards to the Sudanese Plain to the North. Much of the South is poorly drained, while the center is dominated by Lake Kyoga and surrounding marshy areas.
Hunting Season
Our hunting season is from January throughout to December. It rains all year round (which is why the country is so lush) with slightly more rain on average in May/June and October/November. However, the rainfall varies from year-to-year. Some species move with the rain, but we will do our best to make every safari a success. The best time to hunt Bu alo is during the months of December to end of June. After that the grass is high and hunting bu alo becomes challenging. All other species can be hunted year-round.
Kafu River Basin (KA)
The Kafu River Basin stretches along Lake Kyoga, Kafu & Mayanja Rivers and covers the six districts of Nakaseke, Nakasongola, Kiboga, Kyankwanzi, Kiryandongo and Masindi covering about 420,000 hectares. The landscape in Kafu consists mainly of Papyrus swamps and dense bush thickets making it a prime hunting ground for the East African Sitatunga, East African Bush Duiker, Eastern Bohor Reedbuck, Nile Bushbuck East African, Uganda Defassa Waterbuck, Leopard, Common Oribi and Bush Pig. We hunt in Kafu from January to December. This is the best concession for big Sitatunga. Our average horn length on Sitatunga is 25 inches with quite a few bulls taken in the 29 to 31.5-inch range over the years.
Aswa Lolim Ranches (AL)
The former Aswa-Lolim Wildlife Reserve was degazetted under Idi Amin in the 70s. It covers the sub-counties of Purongo, Alero, Anaka and Koch-Goma. Although many commercial farmers have settled in this prime hunting ground, it is still realistic to get Nile Bu alo, Uganda Kob, Hartebeest, Waterbuck, Oribi and warthog. Aswa-Lolim lies on the eastern side of the Nile. It covers 45,000 hectares and share a 110 km direct border with Murchison Falls National Park in the South and about 78 km with the Nile in the West. The landscape is dominated by light rolling grass hills with palm trees, small valleys with creeks and light forest. Near the river you nd dense forests and large stretches of papyrus swamps. We hunt in Aswa-Lolim from January to end of April/May. The Sitatunga hunting takes place year-round.
ACCOMMODATION IN KAMPALA AND IN THE FIELD
Upon arrival at Entebbe Airport (Airport Code: EBB) and departure, depending on your ight schedule, you will be accommodated in a good three-star hotel in Kampala. Our sta picks you up at the airport and drops you o . Your lodging in the eld will be either in traditional East African safari tents (Kafu Blocks & Karamoja) or traditional grass thatched tented bungalows (Mayanja Lodge) serviced for by trained sta .
Our eld cooks provide three solid meals (breakfast, lunch, dinner) per day. The cooking in our restaurant samples di erent kitchens such as Indian, African, German, Italian and Chinese. All our camps & lodges are semi-permanent structures equipped with 24/7 power supply and satellite internet. The internet can only be used for emails and Skype calls.

La Zenaida, Córdoba, Argentina
High volume dove shooting
La Zenaida is located 50 meters away from one of the largest and most compact dove roosts in Argentina and right on a dove yway; it is just the perfect place for a thrilling high-volume shooting experience with an experienced team that runs a awless operation.
Decorated in the traditional Patagonian and Northern Argentinean style, La Zenaida o ers all modern amenities: cosy en-suite bedrooms, a comfortable living-room with a fully stocked complimentary bar, a large dining room, a large outdoor hot tub and a great recreation area with a wonderful view of the green elds and mountain lions walking around occasionally.
The Shooting
Córdoba is considered the dove shooting capital of the world. The 100 square mile radius (60 km) around the lodge is annually inhabited by over 30 million doves.
The lodge has around 25 shooting fields, which are at walking distance within our own property, or at a short drive through the region’s rich farmland. This allows for more time to relax and enjoy yourself, take a nap in between hunts, refresh in our swimming pool during the hot summer days or the outdoor hot tub in cooler days and why not take a pleasant massage for your sore shoulders and limbs!
The overwhelming amount of birds ying over the head restlessly all day long ensures great opportunities for non-stop shooting suitable for all skill levels. Beginners have an unparalleled chance for improving their shooting skills aiming at low ying doves, while more experienced shooters nd higher and faster targets quite a challenge. An average hunter may expect to shoot between 2 to 4 cases a day…and there’s No Bag Limit!

Mixed bag hunting
Veracruz is a cosy, thatched-roofed lodge with the most spectacular view, which makes a wonderful setting to spare and relax after enjoying the best shooting ever. The lodge o ers 5 bedrooms with private bathrooms, and can accommodate 10 guests. While you are at the ranch, it is yours to enjoy, from the comfortable living room with its inviting replace, to the dining room o ering beautiful views of open elds and the Parana River shore.
The Shooting
At Veracruz you can hunt di erent species of ducks depending on the time of the year, the rosy billed and whistling ducks being the most common, along with some teals.
Duck shooting features comfortable and well camou aged blinds; quality specie-specific decoys and guides who will place you where you need to be to get the kind of duck hunting you’ve only dreamed of until now.
The shooting occurs on the shores of San Javier Rivers, over some of the hundreds of islands or over rice elds. We shoot twice a day, morning and evening, and there is plenty of time to relax at midday.
For morning hunts, our hunters depart from the lodge in the dark, but after a hearty breakfast. Depending on the time of the year and the behavior of the birds (scouted every day), the time to get to the blinds will be from 20 minutes to an hour, including car or boat ride.
Shooting over decoys starts at first light and continues until 10 am or after. Flocks of 20 or 30 ducks are not rare. Most days, duck hunters return to the lodge for lunch and a siesta before afternoon departure at about 3pm for evening duck hunts. Evening hunts last until dark.
Perdiz over dogs is a great choice to hunt. They are fast and challenging. Britain’s or German shorthair dogs hunt with us. Duck and perdiz shooting can be exchanged for Dove shooting, making the hunting diverse.
Dorado Fishing is a great and fun sport. The river scenery is phenomenal. We sh in shallow water with current. Lots of di erent sh can be caught like stingray and Piranhas. We will use bait or y rods depending on your request. Catch and release is what we do.
In the heart of a magical environment, Veracruz o ers a warm and cozy accommodation combined with the best of Argentina’s mixed bag hunting.

Experienced hunters usually need to go far to hunt big deer. This is often a long and troublesome trip, and sometimes accommodations are rough. As of this year, a new destination in France has opened, o ering some of the biggest and most beautiful deer.
The Saint Michel property, in the Nièvre department, located between Beaune and Saint-Honoré-les-Bains, will welcome you to its magni cent park. You will stay in a fully renovated castle with all the comfort of a ve-star hotel. Everything is done to perfection, be it the rooms or the meals. The owner Antoine Feidt, himself a very experienced hunter who has travelled the world, will personally welcome you and make it possible for you to shoot one of his exceptional deer.
The deer are originally from Germany, and they were imported to France 10 years ago. They have been pampered and well taken care of in order to make this livestock so amazing today. They have been treated naturally and kept in the wild. Many stags have 30 points or more and go up to gold medals. For the rst time, Antoine Feidt is opening this exceptional domain where he will, I am sure, prove the beauty and the quality of his deer. You will either hunt game from a hide on watchtowers or by stalking. The best calibres for hunting here are .300 Winchester, 9.3 x 62, etc..... A French hunting permit or license is mandatory. You will be hunting with the owner, who will gladly explain the evolution of his livestock and his theories on genetics.
So take advantage of this unique opportunity to discover these unique deer, and should you shoot one of them, it will most certainly become one of the most admired pieces in your trophy room. Certains chasseurs expérimentés vont au bout du monde pour chasser de grands cerfs. L’avion et les transfers sont souvent très longs et éprouvants. Or, depuis cette année, une destination en France permet aux amateurs de trouver de très grands cerfs, le domaine Saint Michel. Situé dans la Nièvre entre Beaune et Saint-Honoré-les-Bains, un château complètement rénové vous accueille sur un territoire magni que, o rant un confort digne de 5 étoiles: chambres, suites, repas, tout est merveille et délices.
Antoine Feidt, le maître des lieux, lui-même chasseur hors pair, mettra tout en œuvre pour vous faire tirer un de ses plus beaux cerfs. La souche, venue d’Allemagne il y a plus de 10 ans, a porté ses fruits et la qualité et la beauté des cerfs est remarquable. Nourris tout à fait naturellement, ils valent le coup d’œil, plusieurs faisant plus de 30 cors, certains allants jusqu’à la médaille d’or.
Cette année, Antoine Feidt ouvre pour la première fois son domaine. La chasse se déroule uniquement à l’a ût, sur de grands miradors ou au pirch. Les calibres recommandés sont: 300 Win - 9,3 x 62 - etc. Un permis français ou une licence est obligatoire. Vous chasserez avec Antoine Feidt, il se fera un plaisir de vous expliquer l’évolution de ses cervidés et sa théorie génétique en rapport avec son cheptel.
Pro tez de cette occasion unique pour découvrir en n de magni ques cerfs...Nul doute que si vous venez en chasser un, il sera une des pièces maîtresses de votre trophy room.

Dorback Estate sits in the heart of Speyside in Scotland and in the Cairngorm National Park with a spectacular mountain backdrop where the high peaks and corries often hold snow into high summer. Extending to over 16,000 acres the Estate captures high ridges, corries and moors home to stags that can be heard roaring in Autumn and the iconic grouse then down to lower wooded ground besides the Dorback Burn where salmon spawn. Dorback has a rich hunting history and as a genuinely mixed sporting estate can o er rarely rivalled mixed sporting packages including walked up grouse on a wonderful and varied moor, challenging stalking on high ground and exhilarating low ground shooting amidst beautiful native woodland.
Dorback Estate bene ts from the lifetime of experience gathered by our Estate Rangers, Bryce Coutts and Ian Crowson. Bryce and Ian are true custodians of this wild and beautiful part of Scotland and can o er world class sporting opportunities. We have hunters who have been returning to Dorback for over 40 years in order to relive the premium quality sporting experience on o er.
We shoot walked up grouse over the moor that extends over a large part of the Estate and this allows us to o er fresh ground where the grouse have been left undisturbed for many days. This provides for the very best quality shooting experience which can be enjoyed over pointers if preferred. On Dorback Estate we shoot a sustainable bag for the grouse stocks we have each season. We base a day on 2 brace of grouse per gun and provide the most wonderful experience. If we have more grouse available we will provide them and this season we were able to sustainably shoot bags of approximately 20 brace a day for teams of 4 to 6 guns. The moor is well equipped with various lunch huts and hill bothies, including the luxurious Fae Bothy which o ers an exquisite resting spot for lunch or as a destination at the end the day with a welcoming wood burner and comfortable sofas. Fae Bothy is fully equipped to allow a chef to prepare a beautiful meal and with an impressive dining table can seat a full team of guns along with many family and friends.
Our low ground shoot has been meticulously developed and huge investment has been made in conservation measures to provide the optimum habitat for pheasants, partridge, duck and woodcock. The variety of woodland, farmland and terrain makes for a diverse and inspiring shooting experience. We can o er mixed driven shoots from 100 bird days upwards with lunch served in one of the estate’s luxury cottages or the Fae Bothy. We also o er walked up rough shooting incorporating some bespoke drives with a bag of 10 birds per gun which provides tremendous fun.
The estate also o ers excellent stag stalking opportunities in October with hind stalking following the stag season which is o ered at a day rate. On the lower altitude wooded ground there are roe deer stalking opportunities to o er further variety to a mixed sporting package.
At Dorback Estate we design the sporting package to suit our guest’s needs and time and time again our guests enjoy a most unforgettable experience.
Dorback Estate is also constantly engaging in projects to enhance the natural environment and follow organic farming or cultivation methods. So, on the Estate and you will nd wild ower headlands, beehives, orchards, heritage Narragansett turkeys, chickens and polycrub vegetable gardens which all support the Estate’s concept of generating as wide a variety of local produce as possible.

Fjelljakt is an organisation with great expertise in all aspects of hunting in the Swedish mountains. We have been active for about a decade and, ever since we started, our philosophy has been to provide top class hunting packages. Everyone who works with Fjelljakt is carefully selected and a master at what they do.
We are privileged to work in western Jämtland. The nature here is astounding, with open vistas that extend all the way to Norway. Jämtland is one of the last areas of real wilderness in Europe and we o er you the opportunity to explore it with us. We have chosen to focus on moose and game bird hunting, as our 16,500 hectares of hunting grounds have an almost unique game population.
Our Hunting Villa lies at the heart of our 15,000 hectares of hunting grounds and is the base for our hunts. The Hunting Villa was built in 1896. Medstugan Hunting Villa embodies a genuine sense of hunting traditions and hunters have stayed here since the turn of the last century. Over the years, Medstugan Hunting Villa has attracted both royalty and big game hunters from foreign lands. This beautiful heritage building is our starting point every morning, whether we leave on foot or by helicopter after breakfast.
MOOSE HUNTING, THE TRADITIONAL WAY
Our most exclusive hunting product is one-on-one hunting with a barking moose dog. You and a tracker/dog handler hunt alone over large areas, waiting for the dog to nd the moose. When the dog “holds” the moose through its rhythmic barking, we start our cautious approach on an extremely watchful moose. There are few hunting methods that bring about such a rush of adrenaline. This package also includes “calling for moose” in the dawn to increase your chances of shooting the “big bull”. We also o er driven hunts for moose. We hunt using experienced trackers/dog handlers. Depending on the wind and weather, we can choose whether to hunt with the dogs leashed or unleashed. All drives are conducted in beautiful open mountain terrain.
GAME BIRD HUNTING
We o er ptarmigan hunts using pointing bird dogs. Hunting takes place on the open mountainsides or in the forests of mountain birch. This hunting method necessitates a great deal of walking in the mountains, but the breathtaking surroundings mean you soon forget that you are also getting a little bit of exercise. Ptarmigan hunting is very sociable, as you have time to chat during the day; it is only in bird situations that discipline and a cool head are necessary. All of our hunts require that you are used to spending time in the outdoors and that you are physically prepared for long walks and long days in the mountains.

OUR HUNTING LODGE
The Medstugan hunting lodge was built by Carl Fredrik Liljevalch in 1896-97, and was drawn by the architect Agi Lindegren; it is located at the heart of our 16,500 hectares and is the starting point for our hunts. Over the years, Medstugan has attracted both royalty and foreign big game hunters and there is a real sense of hunting tradition in Medstugan’s walls –hunters have stayed here for over a century and a trophy cabinet bears witness to how hunting was conducted in the early 1900s. In the morning, after breakfast, we depart from this from incredible piece of history either on foot or by helicopter.
Breakfast and dinner are eaten in one of our two dining rooms. The day’s hunting stories are best told around the re in the drawing room, while the lodge’s sauna is wonderful for relaxing in after an exciting and demanding hunt.
A CULINARY EXPERIENCE
Moose, grouse, trout, reindeer, mushrooms and berries… the list could be even longer, but this one describes the food sourced from our region. And not only are these fantastic ingredients that will take you on a culinary journey through our hunting grounds, this also means we can guarantee that only the best quality food makes it to your plate.
We believe that food and drink are extremely important parts of the overall hunt experience. Not least, they provide pleasure after a hard day’s hunting with good friends, but they also give us the satisfaction of knowing that we use what we shoot, making the very most of it. For us, it is also a way of respecting the game we hunt.

At the southern tip of Corsica, between the sea and the mountains, lies an immense estate in the heart of a valley carved by the Ortolo river. Its name is Murtoli, a secret destination whispered about by those in the know. This unique setting has a poetic air, with 2500 hectares of completely wild bush-covered terrain where ora and fauna have been left to thrive untouched, including forests, mountains, many inviting coves and an endless white sand beach that stretches along the Mediterranean Sea, a true paradise for hunters, but not only.
An exceptional hunting ground
The Domaine de l'Ortolo o ers an exceptional hunting ground boasting 2500 hectares of well-preserved ecosystem with widely varying landscapes. Here, visitors hunt accompanied by Constant, the hunting manager, and his team from October to January. Although the estate can provide dogs, shotguns and ri es, kennels can be also provided.
Hunting in so di erent ways...Big or small game, driven hunt or with pointing dogs, by the boot and pass shooting. All in one place !
The rich and varied Ortolo valley hosts great groups of those famous wild boars, always quick and unpredictable game. The boars either stay back in the scrubland digging up roots from the land, gathering berries or standing by the nutritious oaks or go out into the valley, joining the swamp and the beach. Discover the traditional way of hunting in Corsica with memorable and passionating driven hunt. End the day with a di erent experience, go for "in front" hunting with the dogs.
For many reasons, the small sedentary and migratory game enjoy these large nutritious lands, the territory being crossed by the Ortolo river, the farming activity is all around, the environment is consistently maintained in the plain. The favorite small game here is red partridges but also pheasants, hares, pigeons, ducks, woodcocks, snipes. You will be part of a high- ying hunt and the next day, you can enjoy hunting with pointer dogs as well in a breathtaking landscape.
A 5-star hotel like no other
The hunting territory is located on lands which have been a working farm for centuries, a place called Murtoli, with veals and cows risen up, hundreds of goats to make the traditional cheese, its own olive oil, honey, jam, mirtle liquor. The Domaine de Murtoli o ers you on site a complete range of luxury accommodation : unique and atypical among 20 shepherd houses restored from the 17th century with daily housekeeping service and breakfast delivery or in the heart of luxury suites, the intimate atmosphere of the Hotel de la Ferme, combining modernity and charm of the old.
The hunters can come along with the family as everyone will nd something to do in the Domaine de Murtoli: playing the 12-hole golf course, enjoying the dedicated sand beach serviced until end of october, botanical walks, sea coast walks, hikings the hills and the rocks, horseback riding in the Ortolo valley, Corsican cooking lessons or wine tasting, massages, farm life discovery and so much more.
At the end of the day, just sit down in the comfortable armchairs of the bar, and chill around the replace, while tasting a nice glass of Corsican wine, sharing your emotions of the day, right before a dinner in one of our restaurants. The Domaine de l'Ortolo is all about sharing great moments within family and friends while discovering the local lifestyle.

At Murtoli, feel like being at the edge of the world...
The taste of genuine Corsica, simple and authentic
Located in the southern tip of Corsica, between the old towns of Sartène and Bonifacio, nestled between sea, forests, hills and mountains, the Domaine de Murtoli is a very discreet address which presents an original vision of how a luxury hotel can operate tastefully and harmoniously amidst a reserve of natural wild beauty.
The Domaine de Murtoli is a very unique hotel concept rising spectacularly above the Mediterranean.
Once passed the inconspicuous wrought iron gate, Murtoli gradually – modestly – reveals itself along the curves of its 50 kilometers of tracks. The ve-star hotel – the only one in Corsica open from April to January – is exceptional not only because of the sheer size of its wonderful grounds but also because the lucky few who have the privilege to stay here are accommodated either in dwellings, large landlord villas or shepherd's houses, all restored from the 17th century and scattered around the estate or in suites of a charming boutique hotel nestled in the heart of the valley o ering an intimitate and authentic atmosphere. And amongst this classic Corsican wilderness, it is possible in one day to sh in the sea thanks to the estate's 22-feet boat, or sh the endemic trout in a river, go hunting, ride a horse, enjoy the summer spa or play the 12-hole golf course designed by Kyle Phillips.
As for dining; you have the choice between the beach and its La Table de la Plage, built entirely of driftwood, or La Table de la Ferme, a gastronomic restaurant or La Grotte, which, as the name suggests, is in a natural cave and has a terrace from where diners overlook what must be one of the most beautiful views on Earth. 3 restaurants, 3 di erent cuisines, 3 atmospheres.
Murtoli is not just a hotel. It is rst and foremost a daily working farm with the desire to get the best out of the soils in the most natural way to bring the produce of the farm fresh and directly to the guests’ plates. Gardens on site o er their own organic production of fruits, vegetables and herbs, that you can even harvest yourself and take it for a meal back at your shepherds’ cottage. A small cheese factory where traditional varieties of Corsican cheeses – including tome and brocciu – are produced. Within the con nes of the estate, land has been cleared for 400 ewes to freely roam. These gorgeous sheeps provide a deliciously tasty milk. Homemade honey is also o ered on site in spring and fall. Farming at Murtoli is genuinely part of its DNA.
Every details have been taken care of in this majestic Corsican paradise. Appreciate the magni cent views in joyful silence, relish the sheer pleasure of being part of this peaceful landscape.

SWEDEN Rough shooting
Every year, Scandinavian Prohunters arrange a small number of VIP Rough Shoots with a mixed bag of birds. We use the very best dog handlers and hunt out of the fantastic castle of Markie Hage in order to be able to provide a ful lling and comprehensive HUNTING experience. It’s a mixed hunt of partridge with pointing dogs and spaniels, take-o and ight for ducks and depending on the season, small drives for pheasant and grey legged partridges. If there is geese in the elds we normally start the day trying to get some geese over decoys. When you already here why not combine the wing shooting with some big game hunt out from the same lodge...
Roebucks,
Fallow stag, Red deer, Wildboar, Mou on & Bison
It is no coincidence that Swedish Roebuck are classi ed as the most beautiful buck in the world. Tall, slender and symmetric. They will provide you with an awesome trophy that will most certainly nd a prominent spot in your home. Scandinavian Prohunters have the best privately owned properties in the Southern part of Swede where we every year shoot big gold medal bucks. We also have very nice Fallow stags (natural colored, black and white), majestic European Red Stags, Wildboars, Mou on and European Bison.
NORWAY Reindeer
We have access to hunt EUROPEAN REINDEER in the desolate though beautiful Norwegian barrens long known to produce some of the largest antlered reindeer in the world. The area is about a four hours drive from Oslo. Only a limited number of bulls are taken each year to insure quality hunting. Horses are available at an additional fee to get even deeper into the mountains and barrens where the biggest bulls live and also for bringing the animal down from the mountain. We house our hunters in a very charming and comfortable highland hotel near the hunting area. Meals are deliciously prepared with local products.
GREENLAND Muskox and Caribou
This prehistorical animal has become very popular to hunt and that is understandable. We are going by boat along the river trying to nd some good spotting places. When a good bull is located the stalk will start on foot. In the start of the season we are staying in a very comfortable tented camp by the river, when it's getting colder we are using cabins. We can also arrange this hunts in the spring time, then we will use snowmobile. For those who are interested to combine the hunt with a Caribou, the area is producing some very good trophies.

Spain has always had a peculiar attraction for hunters. It of course has two very unique ways of hunting namely the “ojeo” driven partridge and the “monteria” driven big game.
Andalucia has long been the el dorado of partridge shooters, providing some of the world’s nest shooting, in breathtaking scenery of hills and valleys.
In contrast with the more northern hunting areas, Seville boasts a reputation of ever sunny skies and mild temperatures the whole hunting season long. Taking the sun at his post, with these “Spanish grouses” all around you is a pleasure for any hunter. The informal yet traditional atmosphere, punctuated by the convivial Spanish hospitality, makes these outings a daylong esta. Put Soto Real, the exclusive hunting resort and retreat in these surroundings and a Magic Safari Lodge is born.
But, what really triggers everyone’s imagination is that you can walk around in short sleeves in winter, enjoying your days out hunting while friends or associates back home are shivering in the cold. Your only thought then is: “this is magic”.
Nature around Soto Real could not be more tempting! A true sportsman will appreciate the swift ight of the red-legged partridges driven from the hills by the majestic Andalusian horses over an armada of a dozen pair gunned shooters.
Spain is rated as one of Europe’s last hunting paradises and the abundant nature of Soto Real o ers most exciting opportunities for the shooting sportsman. The 5.000 acre shooting grounds are bordered on one side by the delta of the Guadalquivir and on the other by the Sierra Grazalema.
Red-legged partridges are amongst the most challenging birds in Europe and our driven partridge shoots are an absolute delight! The mild Spanish climate almost always guarantees clear blue skies and warming sun. The breathtaking views of the Andalusian countryside and the beauty of the typical red partridge make the picture complete. Season starts early October to end only mid March

Wonderful outdoor cocktails, lunches prepared in the countryside by our chef and a beautiful presentation of the bag of the day will contribute to make your stay at Soto Real an unforgettable synergetic experience. Depending on the time of year, Soto Real o ers many other shooting possibilities.
From July till the end of September, quail and rabbits walk up shooting over dogs is organized for small groups. During the normal hunting season, hares and partridges can further ll up your bag and towards the end of the season ights of thrush represent a particular attraction.
The main cortijo has this very special feel of a wonderful country house. Each room designed and decorated in a delightful blend of traditional Andalusian and old Moresque style, has an en suite luxury bathroom, intimate salon and private terrace.
Soto Real does not attempt to present an image or make a statement. The aim is to provide guests with quiet comfort and discreet service, which will enable them to relax and draw from surroundings and to restore the senses that modern life tends to crush. The perception of luxury also has a touch of elegance: decoration is luxurious yet without ostentation, fantasy in all sobriety giving total tranquility.
Soto Real is also perfect for couples and families, for a long weekend or a short week. It is within easy driving distance of the Mediterranean and the Atlantic, the towns of Jerez, Sevilla and Cordoba and the surrounding white villages - all available as chau eur-driven excursions.
In the cortijo itself there are opportunities for horse and carriage riding, tness, sauna, as well as a beauty-center, tennis and clay shooting, all organized by professional sta .
Big game also abounds in the forested hills with species such as the red- and fallow deer, roe, mou on and not forgetting the much-coveted wild boar. Hunting them in Monteria style, driven by dogs “podencos and mastines”, holds the greatest fascination for anyone, given both the skills and the ancient rites involved. Stalking the Spanish Ibex is a challenge for the ttest as the mountains around Ronda can take their toll.

Paul-Antoine RICHET COULON
Style and respect can be found in all products – in the naturalness of their materials, their high functionality and aesthetics, and their frst-class workmanship, as well as their durability.
The Gun Dog Affair is not a label you adorn yourself with, but rather an attitude you adopt out of conviction. A style that is formed from tradition and unites all those who wish to express their respect for nature and the craft of hunting. Those who have high demands on their appearance in all areas of life and thus also on their clothing.
Classic, elegant, timeless.

Hunting Badges
Dear Hunting Friends,
Hunting has been a great passion of mine for many years and it is my life`s mission to immortalize these very special experiences with personalized hunting badges.
We hunters revel in memories and try to keep special moments alive with outlived traditions, stories and images.
In addition to the hunting badges, we also manufacture belt buckles, cartridge pouches, jewelry and other works of art, with great attention to detail.
We work to deliver on your personal vision. We look forward to designing your personalized badge in gold, silver, or brass. Visit us on Instagram.
Waidmansheil!
Yours faithfully, Friedrich von Meding

COLLECTION CHASSE & OUTDOOR
Une collection pensée et inspirée de nos journées de chasse en famille et entre amis. Nous avons travaillé chaque modèle afin de vous assurer allure, praticité et confort...
Nous continuons de confectionner une large partie de nos vêtements dans nos ateliers lyonnais, fleuron de l’industrie textile. De la conception, à la coupe, puis au montage, nombreux de nos modèles sont produits entièrement en France !
Toujours dans la lignée de nos précédentes collections, nous voulons continuer de véhiculer cette image de transmission : d’une partie de chasse en famille, d’un repas fédérateur, d’un vrai moment de partage... car plus que jamais, la chasse a de l’avenir !
A collection designed and inspired by our hunting days with family and friends. We have worked on each model to ensure style, practicality and comfort...
We continue to make a large part of our clothes in our Lyon workshops, the fagship of the textile industry. From design, to cutting, then assembly, many of our models are produced entirely in France!
Always in line with our previous collections, we want to continue to convey this image of transmission: of a family hunting trip, of a unifying meal, of a real moment of sharing... because more than ever, hunting as a future!

Marcello Pet neo
Amazed and passionate about the life as a child, I always drew. A er a career as a graphic designer in communica ons, I decided to put this experience at the service of the naturalist ar st that
I am. It was during a trip to the Central A ican Republic that I discovered the spirit of the great, s ll virgin wilderness.
My travels brought me closer to the illustrious naturalists of the
past century who have always fascinated me and inscribed my ar s c approach in their con nui . My work only has meaning if it becomes a vector of awareness for the preserva on of endangered species. My drawings invite you, I hope, to explore, to learn and to ques on our rela onship with the living and beyond our survival.
