    Fallow Deer hunting in Romania

    I'll try. In good, old, medieval Europe, all the game belonged to a King, so hunting was operated under so-called REGAL SYSTEM. So, King and his kinsmen, his buddies etc. were hunting King's game. What if YOU wanted to hunt ? Well, you had to be an OUTLAW, like Robin Hood. Then, French...

    Fallow Deer hunting in Romania

    I can understand your frustration. Since I happened to be born and raised in Europe, where I got a go on hunting + hunted both US and Canada, I'll try to clear some air. Hunting in Europe is based on DOMINAL system, as opposed to REGAL system in US and Canada. There are no outfitters, licences...

    Canada Bird Hunting

    The most important thing is to find a reputable breeder. Since you live in Canada, that translates to 2,500 - 3,000 $. I had Griffon for almost 16 years. When I run him in NAVHDA NA test, had an opportunity to see a Griffon female, who didn't want to enter water. Couldn't believe it. Make sure...

    Greetings from Canada

    Africa ? Maybe, one day. The top on my list is mule deer. Unfortunately, I am a resident of Ontario, so any way I go, it will be a 5,000 $ project. The rifle I use exclusively, is a heavily customized Remington 700 LH in 7 mm Rem. Mag. It has a Jewell trigger. Chamber was reamed, so I can put a...

    SERBIA: Has Anyone Hunted With Aleksandar Sasha Belancic Of European Hunting Adventures?

    Speaking of Serbia ...... I know the country and had a relationship with LSPG 'Jelen', when Yugoslavia was up-and-running. The best roe trophies are coming from these areas : Horgos ( right on Hungarian border ), Novi Knezevac ( right in the middle of Vojvodina region, at Tisa river ), and...

    SERBIA: Has Anyone Hunted With Aleksandar Sasha Belancic Of European Hunting Adventures?

    That's true. For a while it was thought that roe deer in that region was genetically different from roe in other parts of Europe, but DNA testing proofed that there's no difference from roe deer in neighboring regions of Hungary and Romania.

    Greetings from Canada

    I was 10 years old when a neighbor shot a wild boar right in front of me. So, I am hooked ever since. For past 40 years I live in Canada, but like to travel back and forth to Europe. My next euro-hunt will be in Scotland. Don't hunt ducks any more, as my four legged partner passed away, so I am...

    Can't go wrong with Serbia : That guy is probably just a middleman and/or travel agent. Invoices are paid to hunting leases where the hunting is conducted.
