ksbowman, I was in southern spain, an hour and a half away from Sevilla, on a 5000 acre bowhunting only ranch.
I went there with enough funds for a red Hinde or maybe a Fallow Doe, and would you know it, i had the daddy of all stags offering me a shot. :-)
Great experiance though!

Very nice Andrew,yes the bad about the European preserve is that you pay for the trophy not for the hunt and it can be scary expensive.Thanks for sharing.

You are welcome Felix, glad you enjoyed the pics.
You are right, but if you are not dazzled by horn and antler, it can be affordable and well worth the price just to be able to hunt with my bow.

***My dream hunt***
It amazed me to sense that it was quite possible to have to wait for the antlers to clear before a shot could me made.
What a beautiful example of the majestic Red Stag.

Killer good stuff Andrew! Would have bet somewhere in New Zealand. Red Stag are on my dream list. Outrageous quartering away shot op inside 20 yards! Would get a 2nd job to pay for that big guy! Thanks

J from Denmark, I am not sure if the rules allow me to post links to none sponsers, so I have sent you details by email. Maybe someone could let me know whether it would be OK to post the link here.
danderson, there are zero opportunities for Bowhunting in the UK. Been illegal here since 1965, though we are working on it. As for public land, there is none outside of the national parks that I know of and hunting in those is illegal to my knowledge. If you want to hunt with rifle, you must know a landowner who will allow you to hunt for money or not.

Thank you for taking the time to show us scenes from your hunting trip. Spain is such a beautiful place! :clapper:
