close by.

boots or Rubber boots for the wet morning grass, Camo hunting cloth for weather
in the 50’s – 70’s small day pack for personal items.
Q - When is the best time to hunt?
A - We only hunt for Trophy stags between March 15th and April 5th, which is
prime time during the rut.
Q - Can I bring my own firearms to Chile?
A - Yes, but it is not recommended. We have very good, modern rifles with
scopes available for you to use at no charge. Chile is not a well known hunting
destination, therefore handling of firearms importation by Chilean officials is
not a common practice.
Q - What kind of weather can I expect for this time of year?
A - You should expect weather similar to the Southern Rockies in the U.S.
around late September. (Keep in Mind it will be early fall there).
Q - How many animals can I expect to see each day?
A - During the rut, on an average you should be able to see 1 to 10 mature
stags per day.
Q - Are they vocal?
A - Yes, during the rut they become very vocal. During the peak of the rut
they will sometimes roar all day. You will hear them roar throughout the night
from your cabin.
Q - Is this a physically demanding hunt?
A - No, In fact it is quite easy, since most of the time you will spend
waiting in a high house or stalking slowly through the woods, trying to get a
look at a roaring stag.
Q - Is the C.I.C. scoring system the same as S.C.I. or B & C scoring system?
A - No, the B & C scoring system is only for North American Trophies. The
S.C.I. scores all Big Game Animals from around the world. The C.I.C. scoring
system on the other hand, credits mostly on weight and mass of the antlers,
which is normally found on the older, more mature animals and on Stags, it gives
most credit on length, and circumference and spread.
Q - Do the guides only speak Spanish?
A - No, besides Spanish, they are all also fluent in English and German.

stag hunt?

stags very close to were you can hunt Fallow deer as well.
