Red Stag Hunting in ArgentinaAmong the many fair chase hunts in Argentina, Red Stag Hunting of Patagonia, is by far the most exciting hunting experience due to the challenge of the hunt and the beauty of your surroundings. Contact us today for a detailed travel itinerery for your next Argentina Red Stag Hunting Adventure!
Argentina Red Stag, comparable to the elk, are found in the rugged mountains of northern Patagonia. The Red Stag roar begins in mid March and runs through April. Ours is a true fair chase hunt. Due to the concentration of animals during the rut, the success rate is close to 100%. This, however, doesn’t mean that you don’t have to work to get your trophy! When your Argentina red stag hunt is over we will return to our spacious log cabin situated high in the mountains. Relax and enjoy the breathtaking view of a crystal blue lake. The LodgeThe lodge is a big log and stone cabin situated on a saddle between two mountains (at 4500 ft.) and surrounded by a lake. Very comfortable and recently refurbished: 4 bedrooms, two bathrooms, living room with a big fireplace and dinning room. There is no electric power what makes it particularly charming. The landscape is so magnificent that Walt Disney and his crew spent two months there, taking photos and sketches for the scenery of what later was the movie Bambi.
The HuntWe hunt twice a day, driving, riding horses or walking from the lodge to the different spots from where we stalk. This is real stalk hunting and the terrain is appropriate to spot the animals from far away and try to get close. Some sections of the property are rough and require a good shape while others are easy walking. Our ranch, “Baguales”, is located in a peninsula, surrounded by a lake inmerse in the most beautiful area of the Patagonia. Over 8000 acres of woods, mountains and small valleys. During the Red Stag roar the big bulls concentrate in the valley and there is much roaring coming from the bull red stags. As the roar winds down in mid April the Red Stag bulls move higher up. The north side of the penisula is bathed in sun and the big bull stags congregate close to the lodge. The hunter must be ready to take shots from 50 to 200 yards. Every hunter has a guide. After judging the trophy, the guide will tell if it is a shootable Trophy Argentina Red Stag. It is important to know that we don’t shoot young animals, regardless of the size of the Red Stag. After taking your trophy Argentina Red Stag you can continue Red Stag hunting and take a second or hunt for Argentina wild boar. There are many large males in the area and the hunt is very exciting. There are first class fishing oportunities in the area as well. Video From A Red Stag Hunt With GageSpecies: Red Stag. (Cervus Elaphus) and Wild Boar acasionally. 2010 Trophy Red Stag Hunting Rates
