Hello from Austria

Awww, the usual "weekend bugs"... That must have been quite upsetting, especially if a few encounters. Chamois are indeed very "shy" and don´t like too much human activites around them. In the Alps, between the mountain bikers with stereo in the summer and the ones on ski in the winter, which scare them (so that they burn their precious energy, which could have helped them to survive up to the summer...), it is quite a challenge.

I hope your next chamois hunt will go more smoothly. Was it in Slovenia or in Tyrol?
It was in Slovenia, my hunt in Tyrol was super remote. Huge area south of Lienz. They tell me they have the same problem there with hikers, even thought it is a long ways from town.

Slovenia looked like a Saturday and Sunday parade of people.

These are all the reviers south of Ferlach.

A lot of climbers, and a lot of climbing stores in the Bled/Kranj area so I think it is a big thing there.
 
Hello and welcome!
 
Servus! Much of my family is from Austria and I have spent some of my happiest vacations and hunting times there. I hope it brings youi as much joy as it has brought me.

The dining in Vienna is exceptional, if you have not yet tried Steirereck and the Schwartz Kamel I commend them both to you.
 
Welkom! Enjoy the forum, wmh!
 
Welcome to the family!
 
Hi dear hunting friends,

I am new to this website but I already made use of the fantastic forum and with my great surprise, the community is amazing.

I therefore wanted to briefly introduce myself and say hello.

I am currently living in Vienna, as an expat where I rent a small 150 ha in low Austria to hunt mostly deers, boars and small game.
View attachment 694387I had the occasion to go on a few hunts within Austria and CZ but so far the best experience was the Chamois hunt in the Austrian mountains.

Hereby a few pictures of my recent hunts.

Looking forward to engage in the community.

Don´t hesitate to PM me if you are in Vienna.



Cheers,

Oli
Good day mate!!!
Welcome aboard .....

Good morning,
Did you hunt w Leeuwkop at their ranch or in Zimbabwe? The ranch looks awesome, but I'll be in Zimbabwe for buffalo and whatever else we dig up.
What did you hunt for?
Vaccines?
What rifle did you use?
I feel like I need a good cotton safari shirt and an ammo belt to make the hunt feel right!
How often did you shoot prior to going?
Did you use sticks for shooting practice?
