Experienced hunters usually need to go far to hunt big deer. This is often a long and troublesome trip, and sometimes accommodations are rough. As of this year, a new destination in France has opened, offering some of the biggest and most beautiful deer.

The Saint Michel property, in the Nièvre department, located between Beaune and Saint-Honoré-les-Bains, will welcome you to its magnificent park. You will stay in a fully renovated castle with all the comfort of a five-star hotel. Everything is done to perfection, be it the rooms or the meals. The owner Antoine Feidt, himself a very experienced hunter who has travelled the world, will personally welcome you and make it possible for you to shoot one of his exceptional deer.

The deer are originally from Germany, and they were imported to France 10 years ago. They have been pampered and well taken care of in order to make this livestock so amazing today. They have been treated naturally and kept in the wild. Many stags have 30 points or more and go up to gold medals. For the first time, Antoine Feidt is opening this exceptional domain where he will, I am sure, prove the beauty and the quality of his deer. You will either hunt game from a hide on watchtowers or by stalking. The best calibres for hunting here are .300 Winchester, 9.3 x 62, etc.....

A French hunting permit or license is mandatory. You will be hunting with the owner, who will gladly explain the evolution of his livestock and his theories on genetics.

So take advantage of this unique opportunity to discover these unique deer, and should you shoot one of them, it will most certainly become one of the most admired pieces in your trophy room. Certains chasseurs expérimentés vont au bout du monde pour chasser de grands cerfs. L’avion et les transfers sont souvent très longs et éprouvants. Or, depuis cette année, une destination en France permet aux amateurs de trouver de très grands cerfs, le domaine Saint Michel. Situé dans la Nièvre entre Beaune et Saint-Honoré-les-Bains, un château complètement rénové vous accueille sur un territoire magnifique, offrant un confort digne de 5 étoiles: chambres, suites, repas, tout est merveille et délices.

Antoine Feidt, le maître des lieux, lui-même chasseur hors pair, mettra tout en œuvre pour vous faire tirer un de ses plus beaux cerfs. La souche, venue d’Allemagne il y a plus de 10 ans, a porté ses fruits et la qualité et la beauté des cerfs est remarquable. Nourris tout à fait naturellement, ils valent le coup d’œil, plusieurs faisant plus de 30 cors, certains allants jusqu’à la médaille d’or.

Cette année, Antoine Feidt ouvre pour la première fois son domaine. La chasse se déroule uniquement à l’affût, sur de grands miradors ou au pirch. Les calibres recommandés sont: 300 Win - 9,3 x 62 - etc. Un permis français ou une licence est obligatoire. Vous chasserez avec Antoine Feidt, il se fera un plaisir de vous expliquer l’évolution de ses cervidés et sa théorie génétique en rapport avec son cheptel.

Profitez de cette occasion unique pour découvrir enfin de magnifiques cerfs...Nul doute que si vous venez en chasser un, il sera une des pièces maîtresses de votre trophy room.

Dorback Estate sits in the heart of Speyside in Scotland and in the Cairngorm National Park with a spectacular mountain backdrop where the high peaks and corries often hold snow into high summer. Extending to over 16,000 acres the Estate captures high ridges, corries and moors home to stags that can be heard roaring in Autumn and the iconic grouse then down to lower wooded ground besides the Dorback Burn where salmon spawn. Dorback has a rich hunting history and as a genuinely mixed sporting estate can offer rarely rivalled mixed sporting packages including walked up grouse on a wonderful and varied moor, challenging stalking on high ground and exhilarating low ground shooting amidst beautiful native woodland.

Dorback Estate benefits from the lifetime of experience gathered by our Estate Rangers, Bryce Coutts and Ian Crowson. Bryce and Ian are true custodians of this wild and beautiful part of Scotland and can offer world class sporting opportunities. We have hunters who have been returning to Dorback for over 40 years in order to relive the premium quality sporting experience on offer.

We shoot walked up grouse over the moor that extends over a large part of the Estate and this allows us to offer fresh ground where the grouse have been left undisturbed for many days. This provides for the very best quality shooting experience which can be enjoyed over pointers if preferred. On Dorback Estate we shoot a sustainable bag for the grouse stocks we have each season. We base a day on 2 brace of grouse per gun and provide the most wonderful experience. If we have more grouse available we will provide them and this season we were able to sustainably shoot bags of approximately 20 brace a day for teams of 4 to 6 guns. The moor is well equipped with various lunch huts and hill bothies, including the luxurious Fae Bothy which offers an exquisite resting spot for lunch or as a destination at the end the day with a welcoming wood burner and comfortable sofas. Fae Bothy is fully equipped to allow a chef to prepare a beautiful meal and with an impressive dining table can seat a full team of guns along with many family and friends.

Our low ground shoot has been meticulously developed and huge investment has been made in conservation measures to provide the optimum habitat for pheasants, partridge, duck and woodcock. The variety of woodland, farmland and terrain makes for a diverse and inspiring shooting experience. We can offer mixed driven shoots from 100 bird days upwards with lunch served in one of the estate’s luxury cottages or the Fae Bothy. We also offer walked up rough shooting incorporating some bespoke drives with a bag of 10 birds per gun which provides tremendous fun.

The estate also offers excellent stag stalking opportunities in October with hind stalking following the stag season which is offered at a day rate. On the lower altitude wooded ground there are roe deer stalking opportunities to offer further variety to a mixed sporting package.

At Dorback Estate we design the sporting package to suit our guest’s needs and time and time again our guests enjoy a most unforgettable experience.

Dorback Estate is also constantly engaging in projects to enhance the natural environment and follow organic farming or cultivation methods. So, on the Estate and you will find wild flower headlands, beehives, orchards, heritage Narragansett turkeys, chickens and polycrub vegetable gardens which all support the Estate’s concept of generating as wide a variety of local produce as possible.

Fjelljakt is an organisation with great expertise in all aspects of hunting in the Swedish mountains. We have been active for about a decade and, ever since we started, our philosophy has been to provide top class hunting packages. Everyone who works with Fjelljakt is carefully selected and a master at what they do.

We are privileged to work in western Jämtland. The nature here is astounding, with open vistas that extend all the way to Norway. Jämtland is one of the last areas of real wilderness in Europe and we offer you the opportunity to explore it with us. We have chosen to focus on moose and game bird hunting, as our 16,500 hectares of hunting grounds have an almost unique game population.

Our Hunting Villa lies at the heart of our 15,000 hectares of hunting grounds and is the base for our hunts. The Hunting Villa was built in 1896. Medstugan Hunting Villa embodies a genuine sense of hunting traditions and hunters have stayed here since the turn of the last century. Over the years, Medstugan Hunting Villa has attracted both royalty and big game hunters from foreign lands. This beautiful heritage building is our starting point every morning, whether we leave on foot or by helicopter after breakfast.

MOOSE HUNTING, THE TRADITIONAL WAY

Our most exclusive hunting product is one-on-one hunting with a barking moose dog. You and a tracker/dog handler hunt alone over large areas, waiting for the dog to find the moose. When the dog “holds” the moose through its rhythmic barking, we start our cautious approach on an extremely watchful moose. There are few hunting methods that bring about such a rush of adrenaline. This package also includes “calling for moose” in the dawn to increase your chances of shooting the “big bull”. We also offer driven hunts for moose. We hunt using experienced trackers/dog handlers. Depending on the wind and weather, we can choose whether to hunt with the dogs leashed or unleashed. All drives are conducted in beautiful open mountain terrain.

Game Bird Hunting

We offer ptarmigan hunts using pointing bird dogs. Hunting takes place on the open mountainsides or in the forests of mountain birch. This hunting method necessitates a great deal of walking in the mountains, but the breathtaking surroundings mean you soon forget that you are also getting a little bit of exercise. Ptarmigan hunting is very sociable, as you have time to chat during the day; it is only in bird situations that discipline and a cool head are necessary. All of our hunts require that you are used to spending time in the outdoors and that you are physically prepared for long walks and long days in the mountains.

Welcome to our world

Our Hunting Lodge

The Medstugan hunting lodge was built by Carl Fredrik Liljevalch in 1896-97, and was drawn by the architect Agi Lindegren; it is located at the heart of our 16,500 hectares and is the starting point for our hunts. Over the years, Medstugan has attracted both royalty and foreign big game hunters and there is a real sense of hunting tradition in Medstugan’s walls –hunters have stayed here for over a century and a trophy cabinet bears witness to how hunting was conducted in the early 1900s. In the morning, after breakfast, we depart from this from incredible piece of history either on foot or by helicopter.

Breakfast and dinner are eaten in one of our two dining rooms. The day’s hunting stories are best told around the fire in the drawing room, while the lodge’s sauna is wonderful for relaxing in after an exciting and demanding hunt.

A Culinary Experience

Moose, grouse, trout, reindeer, mushrooms and berries… the list could be even longer, but this one describes the food sourced from our region. And not only are these fantastic ingredients that will take you on a culinary journey through our hunting grounds, this also means we can guarantee that only the best quality food makes it to your plate.

We believe that food and drink are extremely important parts of the overall hunt experience. Not least, they provide pleasure after a hard day’s hunting with good friends, but they also give us the satisfaction of knowing that we use what we shoot, making the very most of it. For us, it is also a way of respecting the game we hunt.

Welcome to our world

At Murtoli, feel like being at the edge of the world... The taste of genuine Corsica, simple and authentic

Located in the southern tip of Corsica, between the old towns of Sartène and Bonifacio, nestled between sea, forests, hills and mountains, the Domaine de Murtoli is a very discreet address which presents an original vision of how a luxury hotel can operate tastefully and harmoniously amidst a reserve of natural wild beauty.

The Domaine de Murtoli is a very unique hotel concept rising spectacularly above the Mediterranean.

Once passed the inconspicuous wrought iron gate, Murtoli gradually – modestly – reveals itself along the curves of its 50 kilometers of tracks. The five-star hotel – the only one in Corsica open from April to January – is exceptional not only because of the sheer size of its wonderful grounds but also because the lucky few who have the privilege to stay here are accommodated either in dwellings, large landlord villas or shepherd's houses, all restored from the 17th century and scattered around the estate or in suites of a charming boutique hotel nestled in the heart of the valley offering an intimitate and authentic atmosphere. And amongst this classic Corsican wilderness, it is possible in one day to fish in the sea thanks to the estate's 22-feet boat, or fish the endemic trout in a river, go hunting, ride a horse, enjoy the summer spa or play the 12-hole golf course designed by Kyle Phillips.

As for dining; you have the choice between the beach and its La Table de la Plage, built entirely of driftwood, or La Table de la Ferme, a gastronomic restaurant or La Grotte, which, as the name suggests, is in a natural cave and has a terrace from where diners overlook what must be one of the most beautiful views on Earth. 3 restaurants, 3 different cuisines, 3 atmospheres.

Murtoli is not just a hotel. It is first and foremost a daily working farm with the desire to get the best out of the soils in the most natural way to bring the produce of the farm fresh and directly to the guests’ plates. Gardens on site offer their own organic production of fruits, vegetables and herbs, that you can even harvest yourself and take it for a meal back at your shepherds’ cottage. A small cheese factory where traditional varieties of Corsican cheeses – including tome and brocciu – are produced. Within the confines of the estate, land has been cleared for 400 ewes to freely roam. These gorgeous sheeps provide a deliciously tasty milk. Homemade honey is also offered on site in spring and fall. Farming at Murtoli is genuinely part of its DNA.

Every details have been taken care of in this majestic Corsican paradise. Appreciate the magnificent views in joyful silence, relish the sheer pleasure of being part of this peaceful landscape.

Europe France

The owner Jean Philippe Bourgneuf ( Wild Boar Fever 7-10-11) can organise some outstanding driven parties for wild Boars and Ducks.

SWEDEN Rough shooting

Every year, Scandinavian Prohunters arrange a small number of VIP Rough Shoots with a mixed bag of birds. We use the very best dog handlers and hunt out of the fantastic castle of Markie Hage in order to be able to provide a fulfilling and comprehensive HUNTING experience. It’s a mixed hunt of partridge with pointing dogs and spaniels, take-off and flight for ducks and depending on the season, small drives for pheasant and grey legged partridges. If there is geese in the fields we normally start the day trying to get some geese over decoys. When you already here why not combine the wing shooting with some big game hunt out from the same lodge...

Roebucks, Fallow stag, Red deer, Wildboar, Mouflon & Bison

It is no coincidence that Swedish Roebuck are classified as the most beautiful buck in the world. Tall, slender and symmetric. They will provide you with an awesome trophy that will most certainly find a prominent spot in your home. Scandinavian Prohunters have the best privately owned properties in the Southern part of Swede where we every year shoot big gold medal bucks. We also have very nice Fallow stags (natural colored, black and white), majestic European Red Stags, Wildboars, Mouflon and European Bison.

NORWAY Reindeer

We have access to hunt EUROPEAN REINDEER in the desolate though beautiful Norwegian barrens long known to produce some of the largest antlered reindeer in the world. The area is about a four hours drive from Oslo. Only a limited number of bulls are taken each year to insure quality hunting. Horses are available at an additional fee to get even deeper into the mountains and barrens where the biggest bulls live and also for bringing the animal down from the mountain. We house our hunters in a very charming and comfortable highland hotel near the hunting area. Meals are deliciously prepared with local products.

GREENLAND Muskox and Caribou

This prehistorical animal has become very popular to hunt and that is understandable. We are going by boat along the river trying to find some good spotting places. When a good bull is located the stalk will start on foot. In the start of the season we are staying in a very comfortable tented camp by the river, when it's getting colder we are using cabins. We can also arrange this hunts in the spring time, then we will use snowmobile. For those who are interested to combine the hunt with a Caribou, the area is producing some very good trophies.

Spain has always had a peculiar attraction for hunters. It of course has two very unique ways of hunting namely the “ojeo” driven partridge and the “monteria” driven big game. Andalucia has long been the el dorado of partridge shooters, providing some of the world’s finest shooting, in breathtaking scenery of hills and valleys.

In contrast with the more northern hunting areas, Seville boasts a reputation of ever sunny skies and mild temperatures the whole hunting season long. Taking the sun at his post, with these “Spanish grouses” all around you is a pleasure for any hunter. The informal yet traditional atmosphere, punctuated by the convivial Spanish hospitality, makes these outings a daylong fiesta. Put Soto Real, the exclusive hunting resort and retreat in these surroundings and a Magic Safari Lodge is born.

But, what really triggers everyone’s imagination is that you can walk around in short sleeves in winter, enjoying your days out hunting while friends or associates back home are shivering in the cold. Your only thought then is: “this is magic”.

Nature around Soto Real could not be more tempting! A true sportsman will appreciate the swift flight of the red-legged partridges driven from the hills by the majestic Andalusian horses over an armada of a dozen pair gunned shooters.

Spain is rated as one of Europe’s last hunting paradises and the abundant nature of Soto Real offers most exciting opportunities for the shooting sportsman. The 5.000 acre shooting grounds are bordered on one side by the delta of the Guadalquivir and on the other by the Sierra Grazalema.

Red-legged partridges are amongst the most challenging birds in Europe and our driven partridge shoots are an absolute delight! The mild Spanish climate almost always guarantees clear blue skies and warming sun. The breathtaking views of the Andalusian countryside and the beauty of the typical red partridge make the picture complete. Season starts early October to end only mid March

Wonderful outdoor cocktails, lunches prepared in the countryside by our chef and a beautiful presentation of the bag of the day will contribute to make your stay at Soto Real an unforgettable synergetic experience. Depending on the time of year, Soto Real offers many other shooting possibilities.

From July till the end of September, quail and rabbits walk up shooting over dogs is organized for small groups. During the normal hunting season, hares and partridges can further fill up your bag and towards the end of the season flights of thrush represent a particular attraction.

The main cortijo has this very special feel of a wonderful country house. Each room designed and decorated in a delightful blend of traditional Andalusian and old Moresque style, has an en suite luxury bathroom, intimate salon and private terrace.

Soto Real does not attempt to present an image or make a statement. The aim is to provide guests with quiet comfort and discreet service, which will enable them to relax and draw from surroundings and to restore the senses that modern life tends to crush. The perception of luxury also has a touch of elegance: decoration is luxurious yet without ostentation, fantasy in all sobriety giving total tranquility.

Soto Real is also perfect for couples and families, for a long weekend or a short week. It is within easy driving distance of the Mediterranean and the Atlantic, the towns of Jerez, Sevilla and Cordoba and the surrounding white villages - all available as chauffeur-driven excursions.

In the cortijo itself there are opportunities for horse and carriage riding, fitness, sauna, as well as a beauty-center, tennis and clay shooting, all organized by professional staff.

Big game also abounds in the forested hills with species such as the red- and fallow deer, roe, mouflon and not forgetting the much-coveted wild boar. Hunting them in Monteria style, driven by dogs “podencos and mastines”, holds the greatest fascination for anyone, given both the skills and the ancient rites involved. Stalking the Spanish Ibex is a challenge for the fittest as the mountains around Ronda can take their toll.

No other country has a richer or more wonderful hunting history than Scotland. Traditional methods of deer stalking and game shooting have not changed for centuries and continue on estates managed by West Highland Hunting to this very day. We offer our guests some of the most inspiring and unique hunting experiences in the most breathtaking locations anywhere in the world.

West Highland Hunting provides premium hunting experiences in a number of the most sought-after areas in Scotland. Our specialism is deer stalking, from the rolling moorland and peatlands of Sutherland, to the dramatic coastline of Western Scotland and the Hebrides.

For those seeking more elusive species like Roe and Sika deer we have access to some of the finest locations in the country.

Based on the Ardnamurchan Peninsula, the most westerly point of mainland Britain, we are content that we can offer you traditional sporting opportunities and access to some of the largest and most impressive red deer to be found, free ranging in the Scottish Highlands.

The accommodation we offer can be anything from the traditional highland cottage, to a dramatic Scottish castle which can be catered by your own private chef or top-class Scottish hotels. Our food is based on the finest Scottish cuisine, fresh from the mountains and sea.

West highland hunting is owned and operated by Highland Scots with long family traditions in hunting and land management. We are proud of our wildlife and our game species are managed to keep them in balance with the environment. A hunt booked with us guarantees to be ethical, fair chase and part of the sustainable management of a natural resource.

As the poet Robert Burns said ‘My heart is in the highlands, a chasing the deer’.
