Description
Red Stag hunting in Patagonia is one the most exciting programs you will ever have. Hunting is carried out on foot in the steppes or on horseback when the method chosen is stalking through the woods surrounding the Andes, one of the most spectacular scenarios in the world. The rutting season is March to April. The steppe hunting takes place until late March. It is easier to identify this species once the rutting season has ended. Do not get the wrong idea: there are plenty of red deer in this area, since they do not need to live in the woods as one may imagine. They can also find their food and shelter in a seemingly deserted steppe, but it is in fact a very rich habitat, full of small hollows with high grasses that are appropriate for deer. Neuquén province is, undoubtedly, one of the best hunting areas. This area requires the hunters to be physically fit, as any other hunting area located near the mountains. Hunter may choose to hunt free range or estate stag. Free range stag are much more challenging and shot opportunity is much less. Size of animals are much smaller. If hunting estate stag, shot opportunity is near 90%. This is a 1:1 fully guided 3 day hunt with 5 star lodging and 5 star cuisine. There may be opportunity to shoot another stag if hunting estate stag. Option for rifle rental (recommended) or to bring a non-hunter for an additional charge.
