I am interested in bowhunting for Ocellated Turkey and Brockett deer.

Has anyone gone on a hunt for these? Please share your experience and if you have a recommendation for who to contact. I know the main areas are in the Yucatan. I have not heard of much at least for Ocellated in Guatemala or Belize?
 
WTA always has a couple of Ocellated hunts on their site. I think the Outfitters are in Campeche. I'd like to do one of those hunts the next couple of years.
I'd feel comfortable booking through them, knowing that the Outfitter has been vetted.
 
I do wonder how thorough those hunt brokers really vet every outfit
 
Peninsula Hunters, Mario Camara. They have an incredible operation. +1 (210) 322-4425.
I just got back from there and got greybrown and a red brocket. The guy likely gets his clients more red brockets that any other outfitter ever. He has a good team also which I think helps. Super nice camp for being in the middle of the jungle.

Would like to see some pictures!

You can put some here or share on a new hunt report thread
 
Im hunting goulds in a couple weeks with El Halcon. They also have a Ocellated Turkey and Brockett deer camp in Yucatan. Friend of mine hunted the ocellated with them last year, everyone in camp got at least one bird.
 
I've always wanted to do one of these hunts. The Yucatan and Quintana Roo were famously safe States that have recently become infested with the cartells. I'd like to know if these regions are presently safe for hunting tourism or if they have become high risk?
 
I was there a month ago and didn’t have a single issue and never felt uneasy. I landed in Cancun, was picked up by the outfitter and We drove 6 hours south to the jungle. It was a great experience and I’ll go back again soon to focus on turkeys. I wouldn’t hesitate to go again.
 
I was planning to do this hunt with WTA for next year. Only had to wait for next years dates. In the meantime a good deal came by and I booked another totally different hunt so this will be postponed a couple of years.

WTA bought Balam Outfitters, they operate in the Yucatan jungle. I wrote them but WTA responded. Communication was good. The trophy fees for the different brocket deer are quite high but they make wonderful trophies.

Good luck deciding!

The goulds hunt went well. Camp was good. Others in camp that had already been on the Ocellated hunt said that camp was even better. If time allows i will also hunt a brocket after i finish the world slam.

Sir, I will gladly take that 16 gauge off your hands. I was waiting for your Winchesters but I'm a sucker for a 16 ga.

I bought a great deal of the brass he had for sale, plus I already had many hundred rounds.

How much brass are you looking for?

Hi Green Chile, I just recently bought a 470 NE barrel for my Thompson Center TCR 83-87 single shot. Im just looking for some 470 NE to shoot at the range just to try it out. I dont need anything special but I just wanted to see what you have left. I dont necessarily even need a full box.
Thanks
Bill
