Without question, our red stag hunt in Scotland is right at the top of the list of the most exciting and exceptional hunting values that we at International Adventures have put together in the 44 years we have been taking people big game hunting on all six continents that allow hunting. For twenty seven years now, we have offered our clients Red Stag hunts in Scotland on a complete package basis, which makes for a stress free trip for our guests.
This hunt is very popular for two reasons. First, my wife Danielle, our son, Justin, and I are in Scotland running the hunting and touring ourselves, thus personally responsible for the success of our guests experience from the moment they arrive in Scotland. We are not booking agents.
Another aspect that makes this opportunity so unique is although our donation includes one hill stag, which is a wild stag running in the high heather hills, I also have the exclusive right to incredible estate stags on our grounds, which are unquestionably the best private herds of red deer in all of Scotland maybe in all of Europe. The top Scottish estate stags have come from this herd for over 50 years including the new #1 taken in 2018! The successful bidder may upgrade to one of our incredible estate stags on a cost basis for which a comparable head elsewhere could cost several times as much. While on this trip, roe deer, fallow deer, Hebridean, Manx, Mouflon, and racka rams may also be taken if available trophy fees for these animals can be
requested.
The package begins with the guests departure from home on day one, arrival in Scotland on day two, transfers to the hunting area on day three, hunting, touring and other activities on days four, five, and six, and their return flight home on day seven. (Hunters may extend their stay in Europe at their own expense if they wish.)
These hunts can be taken in 2023 subject to availability, or a future year as agreed upon with the successful bidder.
