Hunting contacts Austria ?
Anyone have any contacts for Austria. I'd like to avoid the booking agents and Luxury hotels and talk direct to the Game manager/pro hunter/landowner and arrange a trip for this fall. One day I'd like to hunt Ibex but I'll dip my toe in Europe for a chamois thank you- 69firebird

Brown bear Hunt
IMO take your .300 Win mag, if it’s what your comfortable with you will be most focused on your shot placement, and that’s what matters. Next I’d take the caliber and bullet your guide suggests, cause they usually aren’t thrilled when someone shows up with a new unfamiliar large caliber. Or a...- 69firebird

Kodiak Red Lake Bear Hunt Advice Thread
Don't even hesitate about going, pass on it and you will most likely regret it. Unless you get offers like this all the time. As for a gun. A rifle would be my choice over shotgun. Take your 45/70 again. There's an old USFS report the published for Gov agency's in AK about rifles and if I...- 69firebird

There's 4 season (spring, summer, fall, and winter last time I checked) in a calendar year. Some of these guys are there for all 3 seasons wether it's Eco tourism, fishing, and hunting.
