Patagonia Red Stag, Mouflon, Pere David Deer Hunt #85

Patagonia Red Stag, Mouflon, Pere David Deer Hunt #85

Patagonia- the very name conjures up Andean Condors, snow capped peaks, cold clear mountain stream, lakes and rivers, and yes- big Red stag hunted in the mountains. This is as much a true cultural experience as it is a hunt. And this particular hunting operation is truly unique and very special. First it covers over 185,000 private acres of land! Secondly, it is believed by us to have been one of the very first hunting operations in Patagonia, and one of the first in Argentina to put an animal into the SCI Record book. This operation is now over 50 years in the making, and to many it is a dream hunt in a dream location.

Uniquely, its founder searched across the European continent to locate the best trophy red stag in England, Austria and Hungary. Over the next 50 plus years those animals formed the bedrock of the present herd. In addition he brought over Mouflon Sheep Pere David deer and Fallow deer.
While much of Patagonia, in our travels there, is often quite dry and vegetation free, this area looks almost European with its forest and lakes and trees and lush growth, all due to lake moisture. Prime Habitat! You will walk, perhaps ride horses, glass, stalk and be blown away by the alpine scenery in this incredible and unique location!
“Our trip was a perfect vacation for my wife, Kate and I. While I hunted red stag during the peak of the roar, Kate rode horses every day before returning to the beautiful main lodge and perfect meals accompanied by some of Argentina’s famous red wines.
My hunting was primarily by stalking to the sound of the stag’s roar or walking trails through the estancia to spot the numerous animals. A great way to see the forest on my first trip to the Patagonia region! The individual log cabins with mountain views provided individual privacy while only a short walk to the main lodge. We could not ask for a more perfect week together and hope to return again one day.”Dan & Kate L (Colorado)“

Wanted to thank the entire staff for a wonderful time. The property was breathtaking. The accommodations were perfect from the comfortable cabins to the 5 star main lodge. The food was some of the best that we had in South America. The hunt was exceptional, the roar was full on with lots of chasing and fighting stags. The trophy quality was good, with plenty of animals and some monster stags. The guides were full of knowledge and tradition, really something special. I felt we came as hunting clients and as friends. I will recommend this to any of my hunting companions. Thanks. Bill Mc.
There are also some huge wild boar that are a real bonus if found. The Mouflon hunting is a true sheep hunting experience, and they have some excellent trophies. Pere David Deer usually requires booking two years in advance. There is of course also excellent trout fishing in the area.

Weather can be quite cool in their Fall (our Spring)- call it March thru May. Expect mid 30’s up to maybe 55 or so. Rain can happen as well. Bring warm clothing, good boots and of course rain gear.
