My traditional Red Hill Stag hunting begins in early September until the middle of October and is a 7 night stay/5 day hunt. It takes place on a hunting estate of 35,000 acres, and whilst all hunting for Scottish Red Hill Stags in Scotland is free ranging, we endeavour to get you good representations of the breed. Expectation is 8 points and above in total. For 2 stags and accommodation, all meals and round trip transport from Inverness airport etc. (please speak to me before booking your flights) as shown in the brochure the price $5,450.00 per hunter and $3,450.00 per non-hunter, making a total price per couple of $8,9 00.00. This is a 2 on 1 hunt to the hunting area and then a 1 x 1 for the final stalk.
Included in the price – plenty of Brown Trout fishing on the estate in river and lake, and clients can borrow spinning rods if they don’t wish to bring their own.
Also included is field preparation of the antler trophies, which is boiling the heads to museum standard as required by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Dept., and packing so they can be taken back on the plane as baggage.
Not included in the above price – if the hunters require the capes of their trophies there is an extra charge by the hunting estate of $100.00 per cape (because since the recent Foot & Mouth disease outbreak new regulations say the front half of the carcass will be condemned by the Ministry of Agriculture inspector on arrival at the processing plant if it is without the cape), and for return to the U.S. the capes must be flint dried by a taxidermist as per U.S. Dept. of Agriculture regulations, and the charge for this is not included in the price of the hunt and is paid direct to the taxidermist by the client.
Also not included in the hunt price is hard liquor, tips and gratuities to the staff and international and internal flights.
Sika Stag may be available as an extra from $1,400.00 per animal if the client is staying at the hunting lodge and it is taken during their Scottish hill stag hunt.
A limited number of special trophy Red Stags may be available. These animals are in a large fenced area of between 1,000 and 2,000 acres in size and will be in excess of 14 points. Prices start at £3,500.00 per stag. All my prices now include the 20% government tax.
Hunting clients wishing to bring their own rifles will need a Visitors’ Firearm Permit issued by our Police. I can arrange this for them at a cost of $80.00 per permit and I will send information about the paperwork I need if required. Clients not wishing to apply are welcome to borrow one of my own rifles, there is no charge but I ask for a fee of $30.00 to cover the ammunition. On no account should clients bring ammunition over without a licence. This hunt required a reasonable level of fitness, and all prices are in U.S. dollars
Non-hunting companions have a full sight-seeing programme arranged for them every day. A professional tour guide and touring vehicle will take them to places of interest which include historical castles, a 12th century cathedral, stately homes, Fort William, Pitlochry, Blair Atholl, the amazing Cawdor Castle and of course Loch Ness (to see Nessie?) and shopping for antiques and cashmere, and on the Saturday morning a whisky distillery. They will leave the Lodge after breakfast and have a full day touring, returning late afternoon. On one evening during the week they will be driven up the valley to hopefully see the stags coming down from the mountains just before dusk. When the hunters are finished they are welcome to join the tours or go fishing.
