Estonian Hunters’ Society It is known that the first hunting organizations in Estonia were established in 1869 in Pärnu. A turning point in the development of hunting in Estonia was the adoption of the Hunting Act in 1934. Hunting organizations were constantly appearing and in 1967 the Estonian Hunters' Union was formed, whose members are now the majority of Estonian hunters who take care of game and hunt in about 85% of Estonian hunting grounds. EJS deals with public relations, legislative proposals, hunting tourism, hunting economy, hunter education, hunting shooting, hunting dogs, hunting trophies, organizes meetings, etc. EJS publishes the only Estonian hunting magazine Eesti Jahimees.

Ружье Huglu 901 (газоотвод) 12 калибра: отзыв и взгляд охотника со стажем

Ружье Huglu 901 (газоотвод) 12 калибра: отзыв и взгляд охотника со стажем Ну что, друзья-охотники, пришло время поделиться впечатлениями о турецком полуавтомате Huglu 901. В моем арсенале он уже пару сезонов, и накопилось что рассказать. Сразу скажу – без прикрас, как есть. Что привлекло изначально: Цена Huglu 901. Тут все понятно. За такую цену импортный полуавтомат – это всегда интересно. Хотелось попробовать что-то новое, не переплачивая. Внешний вид Huglu 901. Не буду врать, ружье выглядит достойно. Классические линии, неплохое дерево (хотя и без изысков), аккуратная сборка. В магазине глаз зацепился. Газоотводная система Huglu 901. После инерционки хотелось чего-то помягче в плане отдачи. Первые впечатления и пристрелка: Сразу после покупки поехал на стрельбище. Первое, что бросилось в глаза – ружье довольно легкое. Для ходовой охоты это плюс, меньше устаешь. Приклад вскидывается удобно, мушка ловится быстро. Пристрелка показала, что ружье достаточно кучное, особенно с чоками, идущими в комплекте. Бой ровный, без явных отклонений. Но вот тут и вылезли первые нюансы: Требовательность к патронам. Huglu 901 не всеяден. Дешевые патроны с навеской 24 грамма часто не перезаряжались. Пришлось подбирать патроны с навеской от 28 грамм и выше. Это, конечно, не критично, но неприятно. Жестковатая отдача Huglu 901. Да, газоотвод должен смягчать отдачу, но на практике она оказалась не такой уж и мягкой, как я ожидал. Возможно, дело в легкости ружья. Охота и опыт эксплуатации: За два сезона Huglu 901 побывал на разных охотах: утка, заяц, вальдшнеп. В целом, ружье показало себя неплохо. Легкое, маневренное, быстро вскидывается. Добывал дичь стабильно. Что понравилось на охоте: Легкость. Повторюсь, для ходовой охоты – это большой плюс. Особенно когда целый день бродишь по лесу или полю. Быстрота перезарядки Huglu 901. Полуавтомат есть полуавтомат. После инерционки скорость второго и третьего выстрела ощущается. Неплохая кучность. С правильными чоками можно добиться хороших результатов на разных дистанциях. Что не понравилось или вызвало вопросы: Проблемы с перезарядкой слабых патронов. Это, пожалуй, самый большой минус. Приходится тщательно выбирать патроны, что увеличивает затраты. Не всегда надежная работа в холодных условиях. В мороз ниже -10 градусов иногда возникали задержки. Возможно, дело в густой смазке, но факт остается фактом. Качество обработки деталей Huglu 901. В некоторых местах видны следы обработки, царапины. Не критично, но неприятно. Последняя охота (на вальдшнепа): На последней охоте на вальдшнепа Huglu 901 снова показал себя с хорошей стороны. Легкое, маневренное, быстро вскидывается. Стрелял патронами Clever Mirage T2 32 гр. – перезаряжалось все четко, без проблем. Добыл несколько вальдшнепов. Но после примерно 50 выстрелов заметил небольшую люфт цевья. Надо будет подтянуть. Вывод: Huglu 901 – это неплохой турецкий полуавтомат за свои деньги. У него есть свои плюсы и минусы. Если вы готовы мириться с требовательностью к патронам и не всегда идеальным качеством обработки, то это ружье может стать хорошим выбором для охоты. Но если вы ищете безотказное ружье, которое будет работать в любых условиях, то, возможно, стоит посмотреть в сторону более дорогих моделей. Моя оценка: 7 из 10. #Huglu901 #ТурецкоеРужье #Полуавтомат12Калибр #ГазоотводноеРужье #ОбзорРужья #ОтзывОхотника #ОхотасHuglu #ВыборРужья #РужьеДляОхоты #ОхотничьеОружие

На каком расстоянии друг от друга самцы сбрасывают свои рога: советы по охоте

На каком расстоянии друг от друга самцы сбрасывают свои рога: советы по охоте Вы когда-нибудь находили сброшенный рог, но не могли найти его пару? Наверное, каждый охотник за сараями сталкивался с этим вопросом. Насколько далеко друг от друга могут быть сброшенные рога одного оленя? Биолог дикой природы из Университета Небраски в Кирни (UNK), Брайан Петерсон, провёл исследование, которое помогает ответить на этот вопрос. В своей работе он и его коллеги тщательно анализировали данные о сброшенных рогах с 2010 по 2022 год, исследуя участки площадью от 40 до 950 акров вдоль реки Платт в Небраске, известные своим высоким качеством среды обитания оленей. Брайан, который сам является страстным охотником за сараями, каждый год находит около 50 сброшенных рогов и сопоставляет их с другими найденными экземплярами. За годы работы он и его команда собрали данные о 1059 сброшенных рогах, из которых лишь 142 были совпавшими парами. Эти данные стали основой для полезных рекомендаций для охотников за сараями. Согласно данным исследования, расстояния между совпавшими рогами могут сильно различаться. Из 142 найденных пар рогов для 113 были известны расстояния между местами их сброса. Самая большая дистанция составила 1144 метра (1251 ярд), в то время как рога, наоборот, были найдены почти вплотную друг к другу — менее метра. Один из выводов: найти подходящие рога не так легко. Из 1059 рогов только 142 оказались подходящими, что составляет лишь 13%. Брайан отмечает, что много рогов, которые не совпадают, скорее всего, никогда не будут найдены, даже если они находятся в пределах области поиска. Как использовать эти данные для охоты на сараи Будьте терпеливы: Ожидание совпадений требует времени и усилий, так как рога могут быть разбросаны на больших расстояниях. Сканируйте большие участки: Площадь поиска должна быть достаточной, так как рога могут быть на разных расстояниях друг от друга. Учитывайте влияние грызунов: В некоторых регионах грызуны могут повреждать рога, что ещё больше усложняет их нахождение в идеальном состоянии. Заключение Если вы охотитесь за сараями, важно понимать, что найти пару рогов — это не только вопрос удачи, но и стратегического подхода. Используйте полученные данные для планирования своих охотничьих маршрутов и будьте готовы к тому, что рога могут быть разбросаны на приличные расстояния. #Охота #Рога #Советы #Исследования #UNK https://www.pravda.ru/news/interesting_news/2179822-shed_antler_distances/

Verney-Carron Impact в 30-06: честный отзыв на французский карабин. Как охотник со стажем, я всегда ищу оружие, которое сочетает в себе точность, надежность и удобство в обращении. Verney-Carron Impact в 30-06 привлек меня своим необычным дизайном и репутацией французского качества. После нескольких охот с ним, у меня сложилось определенное мнение. Что понравилось: Внешний вид и баланс: Verney-Carron Impact карабин действительно красив. Французы знают толк в эстетике. Дерево приятное на ощупь, а общая компоновка оружия создает ощущение сбалансированности в руках. Он не "клюёт" стволом и удобно вкладывается. Точность (с оговорками): Когда все идет как надо, карабин Verney-Carron Impact показывает достойную точность. На дистанциях до 150 метров можно уверенно поражать цели. Но об этом – ниже. Компактность: Verney-Carron Impact короче и легче многих других карабинов в этом калибре, что делает его удобным для ходовой охоты, особенно в густом лесу. Система запирания: Запирание затвора происходит плавно и надежно. Никаких заеданий или проблем с экстракцией гильз я не заметил. Быстросъемный магазин: Удобная штука, быстро перезарядить карабин при необходимости. Что не понравилось (и это важно): Стабильность СТП (средней точки попадания): Вот тут кроется самый большой минус. СТП плавает. На одной охоте он может стрелять идеально, а на другой – уводить пули в сторону. Я связываю это с креплением цевья и ствола. Оно явно недостаточно жесткое. Приходится постоянно проверять пристрелку и быть готовым к сюрпризам. Это неприемлемо для серьезной охоты. Чувствительность к патронам: Verney-Carron Impact ОЧЕНЬ привередлив к патронам. Дешевые патроны летят куда попало. Приходится подбирать патроны разных производителей и весов пули, чтобы добиться приемлемой кучности. Это дополнительные расходы и время на пристрелку. Спуск: Спуск не самый лучший. Он немного "ватный" и с ощутимым ходом. Хотелось бы более четкого и предсказуемого спуска, чтобы реализовать потенциальную точность карабина. Цена: Verney-Carron Impact стоит дороже многих других карабинов в этом калибре, предлагая взамен сомнительную стабильность. Последняя охота: На последней охоте на косулю я был разочарован. После пристрелки на полигоне, карабин показывал хорошую кучность. Но на охоте, после нескольких выстрелов, СТП ушла влево. К счастью, дистанция была небольшая, и я смог внести поправку, но это сильно подорвало мою уверенность в оружии. Вывод: Verney-Carron Impact в 30-06 – это красивый и элегантный карабин, но его нестабильность и привередливость к патронам делают его не самым надежным выбором для серьезного охотника. Если вам нужно оружие, на которое можно положиться в любой ситуации, стоит поискать что-то другое. Если же вы готовы мириться с недостатками ради эстетики и готовы потратить время на подбор патронов, то, возможно, он вам подойдет. Но я бы не рекомендовал его новичкам. #VerneyCarronImpact #30-06 #Французскийкарабин #Охота

Yukon Craft 3x12x56 – честный отзыв от практика (не реклама!)

Ну что, коллеги-охотники, пришло время поделиться опытом использования белорусского прицела Yukon Craft 3x1

Yukon Craft 3x12x56 – честный отзыв от практика (не реклама!) Ну что, коллеги-охотники, пришло время поделиться опытом использования белорусского прицела Yukon Craft 3x12x56. Сразу скажу, это не новинка, прицел проверенный годами. У меня он трудится уже несколько сезонов, побывал на разных охотах, и есть что рассказать. Стоял Yukon Craft у меня на .308, так что нагрузку держит нормально. Что в комплекте и сразу понравилось: Комплектация: Тут все по-спартански, но все необходимое есть. В комплекте шли кольца – высокие, под вивер/пикатинни. Плюс приятный бонус – стальные быстросъемные кольца (средние). Это прям жирный плюс, потому что быстро менять оптику в поле – это иногда спасение. Линзы: Тут без вопросов. Линзы чистые, просветление хорошее. В сумерках и на рассвете видно вполне достойно. Конечно, до топовых европейцев ему далеко, но и цена совсем другая. Подсветка точки: Подсветка есть, красная, регулируется по яркости. Работает нормально, но я ей пользуюсь не часто. Больше полагаюсь на просветление оптики. Надежность: Вот тут Yukon Craft показывает себя с лучшей стороны. Падал с ним пару раз (бывает, что греха таить), ничего не сбилось, все работает как часы. Видимо, белорусская сборка – это все-таки не пустой звук. Цена Yukon Craft: Самый главный плюс! За свои деньги это просто отличный вариант. Что не понравилось и с чем столкнулся на последней охоте: Кратность: 3-12 – это, конечно, универсально, но иногда хочется больше. На открытых пространствах 12х маловато, особенно если цель далеко. На последней охоте на косулю в поле пришлось немного напрячь зрение. Барабанчики поправок: Вот тут есть небольшой минус. Шаг клика мелковат, и иногда сложно точно выставить поправку. Плюс, не всегда четко ощущается щелчок. Но это придирки, если честно. За такую цену грех жаловаться. Вес Yukon Craft: Прицел не самый легкий. Если у вас и так карабин тяжелый, то с Yukon Craft он станет еще ощутимее. На ходовой охоте это может быть критично. Инструкция: Инструкция могла бы быть и получше. Для новичка может быть не все понятно. Характеристики (если кому интересно): Увеличение: 3-12x Диаметр объектива: 56 мм Диаметр трубы: 30 мм Подсветка: Красная точка, регулируемая Страна производства: Беларусь Вывод: Yukon Craft 3x12x56 – это рабочая лошадка. Отличный вариант для тех, кто ищет надежный, проверенный временем прицел за разумные деньги. Идеален для охоты на средних дистанциях и в условиях умеренной освещенности. Если вам нужна оптика для тяжелых условий эксплуатации, и вы не готовы переплачивать за бренд, то Yukon Craft – это ваш выбор. Но будьте готовы к небольшим компромиссам. #YukonCraft #Прицел #Охота #Оптика #БелорусскийПрицел #308Win #ОбзорПрицела #ОтзывОхотника #ТестПрицела #Hunting #RifleScope #Беларусь #СделаноВБеларуси #ОхотничьеСнаряжение #ВыборПрицела #3x12x56

The Dongfeng 917 M-Terrain: Is This the Ultimate Electric Hunting SUV? (Review & Real-World Impressions)

Introduction Dongfeng 917 M-Terrain:

The modern hunter demands

The Dongfeng 917 M-Terrain: Is This the Ultimate Electric Hunting SUV? (Review & Real-World Impressions) Introduction Dongfeng 917 M-Terrain: The modern hunter demands a vehicle that can handle punishing terrain, haul gear, and do so with minimal environmental impact. Enter the Dongfeng 917 M-Terrain, a large, five-door, five-seat, four-wheel-drive SUV powered by new energy technology. This isn't your grandpa's gas-guzzling truck. This article dives deep into the M-Terrain's capabilities, focusing on what makes it potentially ideal for the serious hunter. Key Features & Specifications: Drivetrain: The heart of the M-Terrain is its advanced new energy powertrain. While details may vary depending on the specific configuration (BEV or EREV), expect impressive electric range figures and the instant torque that electric motors are known for. Four-wheel drive is standard, likely with electronic locking differentials or advanced traction control systems designed to conquer mud, snow, and rocky trails. Size and Capacity: As a large SUV, the M-Terrain offers ample cargo space for hunting equipment, game, and supplies. The five-seat configuration allows you to bring your hunting buddies along for the ride. Crucially, the rear seats likely fold flat, maximizing cargo volume. Off-Road Prowess: The M-Terrain boasts an impressive suspension system (expect independent suspension all around) and a high ground clearance. This is vital for navigating uneven terrain and obstacles encountered in hunting areas. Approach and departure angles are designed for off-road maneuverability. Technology: Modern hunters appreciate technology. The M-Terrain likely includes a large touchscreen infotainment system, advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) for safer highway driving, and potentially features like off-road driving modes and real-time terrain monitoring. Night vision and thermal imaging systems can also be valuable to a hunter in low light conditions. Silent Operation: The electric powertrain significantly reduces noise pollution. This is a massive advantage for hunters who want to avoid spooking game. The quiet operation allows you to get closer to your target undetected. Test Drive & Real-World Impressions: (This section assumes you have access to test drive information, reviews, or have personally driven the vehicle. Adapt it to your actual experiences.) "We recently took the Dongfeng 917 M-Terrain through a demanding off-road course that simulated typical hunting conditions. The vehicle's electric motor delivered instant torque, allowing it to effortlessly climb steep inclines and navigate muddy ruts. The suspension soaked up bumps and dips, providing a comfortable ride even on the roughest terrain. What impressed us most was the near-silent operation. We were able to drive within a few hundred yards of a deer without it even noticing us. The off-road driving modes allowed us to adjust the vehicle's settings for different types of terrain, maximizing traction and control. The large cargo area easily swallowed up our hunting gear, and the comfortable seats made long drives a breeze." Why the Dongfeng 917 M-Terrain is Ideal for Hunters: Stealth: The silent electric operation is a game-changer. Get closer to your prey without alerting them. Off-Road Capability: Conquer any terrain with its four-wheel-drive system, high ground clearance, and advanced suspension. Cargo Capacity: Haul all your gear, game, and supplies with ease. Reduced Environmental Impact: Hunt responsibly with a vehicle that produces zero tailpipe emissions. Technology: Utilize modern technology to enhance your hunting experience. Durability: Build quality is solid, with a focus on ruggedness and reliability, ensuring it can withstand the rigors of off-road use. Potential Drawbacks: Charging Infrastructure: Charging infrastructure in remote hunting areas may be limited. Plan your trips carefully and consider a generator if necessary. Range Anxiety: Be mindful of the electric range, especially in cold weather conditions. Price: New energy vehicles can come with a higher price tag compared to traditional gasoline-powered vehicles. Conclusion: The Dongfeng 917 M-Terrain represents a new breed of hunting vehicle. Its combination of off-road capability, stealth, cargo capacity, and reduced environmental impact makes it a compelling option for the modern hunter. While the charging infrastructure and price may be considerations, the benefits of this electric SUV are undeniable. If you're looking for a vehicle that can take you anywhere and help you hunt more ethically, the M-Terrain is worth a serious look.

The Otterhound: A Hunter's Companion With a Nose for Adventure

As a seasoned hunter, I've always valued a good hunting dog by my side. Over the years, I've had the pleas

The Otterhound: A Hunter's Companion With a Nose for Adventure As a seasoned hunter, I've always valued a good hunting dog by my side. Over the years, I've had the pleasure of working with many breeds, each with its own unique strengths. But today, I want to introduce you to a truly remarkable canine companion: the Otterhound. A Dog With a Purpose The Otterhound, as the name suggests, was originally bred to hunt otters. These aquatic predators were once considered a threat to fish stocks in England, and the Otterhound emerged as a specialist in their pursuit. But don't let the name fool you; the Otterhound is more versatile than you might think. While they excel in water, their stamina, powerful nose, and determination make them capable hunters on land as well. What Can an Otterhound Hunt? While traditionally used for otter hunting (now illegal in many places), today's Otterhounds can be trained to hunt: Raccoons: Their tracking abilities and determination make them well-suited for trailing raccoons. Small Game: Otterhounds can also be trained to hunt rabbits, squirrels, and other small game animals. Waterfowl: With their love for water and strong swimming abilities, some Otterhounds have been used for waterfowl retrieval. Other Varmints: They can be effective in controlling populations of groundhogs and other nuisance animals. Characteristics and Care: The Rugged and Rowdy The Otterhound is a large, rugged breed with a distinctive appearance. They are known for their: Size: Otterhounds typically stand 24-27 inches tall and weigh 65-115 pounds. Coat: Their double coat is dense and water-resistant, providing insulation in cold water. Regular brushing (2-3 times a week) is essential to prevent matting. Temperament: Otterhounds are known for being friendly, boisterous, and independent. They have a playful nature and get along well with children and other dogs. Exercise Needs: Otterhounds need a significant amount of exercise to stay happy and healthy. Daily walks, runs, or swims are a must. Grooming Keep an eye on their ears, as they are prone to infections. Weekly cleaning with a vet-approved ear cleaner is recommended. They don’t need frequent baths, but it is important to brush them regularly to prevent matting. Training for the Hunt: Unleashing the Natural Instinct Otterhounds have a strong hunting instinct, but they require consistent training to channel that instinct effectively. Here's my approach: Start Early: Begin basic obedience training as soon as you bring your Otterhound puppy home. Positive Reinforcement: Use positive reinforcement techniques, such as treats and praise, to motivate your dog. Introduce Scents: Expose your Otterhound to the scents of the animals you want them to hunt. Tracking Games: Play tracking games in the yard or field to develop your dog's scent-tracking abilities. Water Work: If you plan to use your Otterhound for waterfowl hunting, introduce them to water early and make it a positive experience. Drills to Sharpen Hunting Skills To hone your Otterhound's hunting skills, try these drills: Scent Dragging: Drag a scent trail (using a piece of fur or a scent lure) and have your Otterhound follow it. Gradually increase the distance and complexity of the trail. Blind Retrieves: Have your Otterhound retrieve objects from a hidden location. This will help them develop their scent-tracking and retrieving skills. Water Retrieves: If you plan to hunt waterfowl, practice retrieving dummies or birds from the water. Obedience in the Field: Practice basic obedience commands (such as "sit," "stay," and "come") in the field to maintain control of your Otterhound during the hunt. A Loyal and Unique Companion The Otterhound is not for everyone. They require a dedicated owner who can provide them with the exercise, training, and attention they need. But for the right hunter, the Otterhound is an incredibly rewarding companion. Their unwavering determination, powerful nose, and love for the hunt make them a valuable asset in the field. Disclaimer: Always check your local regulations regarding hunting with dogs and ensure that otter hunting is legal in your area. Work with a qualified dog trainer to develop a training program that is tailored to your Otterhound's individual needs. https://m.uh.app/organizations/huntingdogs

Beretta Ultralight: Featherweight Power for Upland Bird Hunters

Beretta Ultralight: Featherweight Power for Upland Bird Hunters For the upland bird hunter, every ounce counts. Hours spent traversing fields and forests demand a shotgun that won't weigh you down. Enter the Beretta Ultralight, a 12-gauge (and occasionally 20-gauge) that redefines "carry gun" without sacrificing the performance expected from a Beretta. Why the Ultralight Stands Out: Reduced Weight, Real Impact: The Ultralight achieves its name through a meticulously engineered alloy receiver. This shaves significant weight compared to steel-framed shotguns, typically bringing the overall weight to around 6.6 pounds for a 12-gauge. This translates to less fatigue during long hunts, allowing for quicker shouldering and improved accuracy. Beretta Reliability: Don't mistake lightness for fragility. The Ultralight is still a Beretta, built with the company's renowned attention to detail and durable components. The proven Beretta action ensures reliable cycling, even in demanding field conditions. Upland Optimized: The Ultralight often features classic upland configurations: a slim forend for comfortable carry, a straight English-style stock for quick pointing, and typically shorter barrel lengths (26-28 inches) for maneuverability in dense cover. Responsive Handling: The combination of reduced weight and balanced design creates a shotgun that feels incredibly lively in the hands. This responsiveness is crucial for flushing birds, enabling quick target acquisition and accurate shots. Aesthetic Appeal: Beyond performance, the Ultralight boasts classic Beretta styling. Expect tastefully engraved receivers and well-figured walnut stocks that add to the pride of ownership. Who is it for? The Beretta Ultralight is ideal for: Dedicated Upland Hunters: Those who prioritize a lightweight shotgun for all-day comfort. Hunters Covering Significant Ground: If your hunts involve extensive walking, the Ultralight will be a welcome companion. Hunters Seeking a Classic, Refined Shotgun: Appreciate the traditional look and feel of a well-crafted over-under. Things to Consider: Recoil: While manageable, the lighter weight can result in slightly more felt recoil, especially with heavier loads. Consider using appropriate loads for your target species. Price: Beretta quality comes at a price. The Ultralight is an investment, but one that delivers long-term value. Conclusion: The Beretta Ultralight is more than just a lightweight shotgun; it's a carefully engineered tool designed to enhance the upland bird hunting experience. Its combination of weight reduction, Beretta reliability, and responsive handling makes it a top choice for hunters who demand the best. If you value comfort and performance in the field, the Ultralight deserves serious consideration. https://m.uh.app/news/finding-your-perfect-beretta-shotgun-the-hunters-guide-to-the-best_UkVv8O3EEe-tm0W5Zik9PQ

The Real Cost of Hunting in Africa: A No-Nonsense Guide

Why Hunting in Africa is Expensive?

Before diving into specific costs, it's crucial to understand the underlying

The Real Cost of Hunting in Africa: A No-Nonsense Guide Why Hunting in Africa is Expensive? Before diving into specific costs, it's crucial to understand the underlying reasons for the expense: Conservation Efforts: A significant portion of hunting fees directly funds conservation programs. Trophy hunting, when managed sustainably, can contribute to anti-poaching efforts, habitat preservation, and community development. Professional Guiding and Outfitting: You're not just paying for a hunt; you're paying for the expertise of experienced Professional Hunters (PHs), trackers, skinners, and support staff. Their knowledge is vital for a safe and successful hunt. Infrastructure and Logistics: Operating in remote areas of Africa necessitates substantial infrastructure, including vehicles, camps, equipment, and communication systems. Demand: The demand for hunting certain species, particularly those considered "dangerous game," drives up prices. Key Cost Components The overall cost of an African hunting trip can be broken down into several key components: Daily Rates: This is the foundation of the cost. Daily rates cover accommodation, meals, guiding services (PH), tracking, transportation within the hunting area, and basic camp services. Expect to pay: 500−1500 USD per day for plains game hunts in countries like South Africa and Namibia. 1000−3000+ USD per day for dangerous game hunts (lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo) in countries like Tanzania, Zimbabwe, and Mozambique. These higher rates reflect the increased risk, specialized equipment, and experienced PHs required. Important Note: Daily rates are per hunter. Non-hunting observers typically pay a reduced daily rate (e.g., 200−500 USD per day). Trophy Fees: These are charged only if you successfully harvest an animal. Trophy fees can vary dramatically depending on the species and its rarity. Examples of Trophy Fees (USD): Impala: 300−600 Wildebeest (Blue): 700−1200 Kudu: 2000−4000 Zebra: 800−1500 Lion: 10000−50000+ (highly dependent on country and trophy quality) Leopard: 8000−25000+ Elephant: 20000−70000+ (again, depends on country, tusk weight, and permit availability) Cape Buffalo: 9000−180000+ Caution: Be aware that trophy fees can be subject to change, and some outfitters require a deposit before the hunt begins. Permits and Licenses: The cost of hunting permits and licenses varies greatly depending on the country and the animals you intend to hunt. Your outfitter will typically handle these arrangements, but the cost will be passed on to you. Expect to pay: From a few hundred dollars to several thousand dollars, especially for dangerous game. Flights and Transfers: International flights to Africa are a significant expense. Expect to pay: 1500−5000+ USD for round-trip airfare, depending on your origin and destination. Internal flights or road transfers from the international airport to the hunting area can also be costly, especially if the hunting area is remote. Factor in several hundred to several thousand dollars for these transfers. Taxidermy and Shipping: Preparing and shipping your trophies back home is a major expense. This includes field preparation, dipping and packing, export permits, crating, and international shipping. Expect to pay: This can easily run into several thousand dollars, depending on the number and size of your trophies. Lion and elephant trophies are particularly expensive to prepare and ship. Tips and Gratuities: Tipping is customary in Africa, and it's important to budget for this. Typical amounts: Professional Hunter (PH): 5-10% of the daily rate Trackers and Skinners: 50−100 USD per day (split between them) Camp Staff: A lump sum to be distributed among the staff. Other Expenses: Rifle rental (if you choose not to bring your own) Ammunition Alcoholic beverages Souvenirs Travel insurance (essential) Medical expenses Average Package Costs While it's impossible to give an exact average, here are some ballpark figures to provide a general idea: Plains Game Hunt (7-10 days): 5000−15000+ USD (excluding airfare and taxidermy) Dangerous Game Hunt (14-21 days): 25000−100000+ USD (excluding airfare and taxidermy) Combination Hunt (Plains Game and Dangerous Game): 15000−50000+ USD (excluding airfare and taxidermy) Factors Affecting Cost Country: South Africa and Namibia are generally more affordable than Tanzania, Zimbabwe, and Botswana. Species: Hunting dangerous game is significantly more expensive than hunting plains game. Rare or highly sought-after species command higher trophy fees. Outfitter: Different outfitters offer different levels of service and charge different rates. Do your research and compare prices. Hunt Duration: Longer hunts will, of course, be more expensive due to higher daily rates. Time of Year: Peak hunting season (often during the dry season) may command higher rates. How to Reduce Costs (Without Sacrificing Quality) Hunt Plains Game: Plains game hunts are significantly more affordable than dangerous game hunts. Choose a Less Expensive Country: South Africa and Namibia are generally the most affordable options. Hunt During the Off-Season: You may be able to negotiate lower rates during the off-season. Book Well in Advance: Early booking can sometimes secure better prices. Travel with a Group: Some outfitters offer discounts for group bookings. Consider a Package Deal: Package deals can sometimes be more cost-effective than booking individual components. Limit Trophy Selection: Only harvest the animals you truly want to take home. Carefully Compare Outfitters: Get quotes from multiple outfitters and compare their prices and services. Negotiate: Don't be afraid to negotiate prices with outfitters, especially if you're booking a long hunt or hunting multiple animals. Conclusion Hunting in Africa is a significant investment. By understanding the key cost components, doing thorough research

The guide staff at the Flying B Ranch toyed with the idea of a wingshooting guide school for several years before launching the inaugural program in 2019. Such training had existed for some time in the fishing and big-game disciplines, but the unique skills required by bird guides were generally learned and refined on the job. The staff at the Flying B saw an opportunity to streamline the learning process and leverage the intellectual property they’d accumulated over decades.

Ружье Aselkon Inter калибр 12/76 отзыв Мужики, приветствую! Как охотник со стажем, хочу поделиться своим мнением об Aselkon Inter. Взял его на пробу, привлекла цена и обещания производителя о надежности инерционной системы. В общем, после нескольких охот есть что сказать. Что понравилось: Цена Aselkon Inter: Тут без вопросов, за такие деньги найти полуавтомат 12 калибра – это удача. Бюджет не треснул, а ружье в руках. Инерционная система Aselkon Inter: Работает, как часы, по крайней мере, пока новое. Никаких затыков и клинов не было, перезаряжает быстро, гильзы вылетают бодро. Главное – чистить вовремя, как и любое оружие. Эргономика Aselkon Inter: Приклад и цевье удобные, в руках лежит хорошо, вкладка быстрая. Не скажу, что идеал, но для меня вполне комфортно. Вес Aselkon Inter: Достаточно легкое, что важно на ходовой охоте. Не устаешь таскать его целый день по лесу. Бой Aselkon Inter: Кучность и резкость хорошие, дичь бьет уверенно на разумных дистанциях. Проверял разными патронами, результат стабильный. Что не понравилось и к чему стоит быть готовым с Aselkon Inter: Качество сборки: Вот тут есть вопросы. Видно, что ружье бюджетное. Пластик дешевый, есть небольшие зазоры. Влияет ли это на стрельбу? Пока нет. Но осадочек остается. Обработка металла: Не идеал, кое-где видны следы обработки, но опять же – на функционал не влияет. Просто эстетика страдает. Комплектация: Скромная до безобразия. Никаких дополнительных чоков, ключей или чего-то еще. Только ружье и паспорт. Заводская смазка: Ее лучше сразу удалить и смазать нормальной. Заводская больше похожа на консервант, чем на смазку. Нужно привыкнуть к отдаче: Инерционка, она и есть инерционка. Отдача ощутимее, чем на газоотводных системах. Но это дело привычки. Последняя охота: Брал Aselkon Inter на утку. Настрелял нормально, ружье не подвело. Но вот что заметил: после примерно 50 выстрелов подряд, начало немного подклинивать при перезарядке. Связываю это с тем, что немного загрязнился механизм. После чистки все вернулось в норму. Вывод: Aselkon Inter – рабочая лошадка за свои деньги. Если не ждать от него премиального качества, а просто использовать по назначению – охотиться, то вполне годный вариант. Идеально подойдет для начинающих охотников или для тех, кто ищет недорогое и надежное ружье для охоты в сложных условиях. Но нужно понимать, что это бюджетный вариант со своими особенностями. Требует ухода и внимания. #Aselkon #Inter #Ружье #Полуавтомат #12калибр #ИнерционнаяСистема #Охота #Оружие #Отзыв #ТурецкоеОружие #Обзор #ЛичныйОпыт #Утка #ОхотаНаУтку #БюджетноеРужье #ВыборРужья #охотничьеоружие Рекомендации: Перед первой охотой обязательно разобрать и почистить ружье. Использовать качественные патроны. Регулярно чистить механизм после стрельбы. При покупке внимательно осмотреть ружье на наличие дефектов. Надеюсь, мой отзыв будет полезен. Ни пуха, ни пера!

The Land Rover Range Rover Holland & Holland Edition 2016: A Sanctuary for the Discerning hunting Enthusiast

The 2016 Land Rover Range Rover Holland & Holland Edition is

The Land Rover Range Rover Holland & Holland Edition 2016: A Sanctuary for the Discerning hunting Enthusiast The 2016 Land Rover Range Rover Holland & Holland Edition isn't just a luxury SUV; it's a statement. It's a rolling testament to craftsmanship, heritage, and the pursuit of refined outdoor pursuits. Born from a collaboration between two iconic British brands – Land Rover, the quintessential off-road vehicle manufacturer, and Holland & Holland, the legendary gunmaker – this limited-edition Range Rover represents the pinnacle of bespoke automotive luxury tailored for the discerning hunting enthusiast. A Marriage of Masters: The Genesis of an Icon The Holland & Holland name carries weight. Founded in 1835, the company has long been synonymous with exquisitely crafted shotguns and rifles, coveted by royalty, heads of state, and serious sportsmen worldwide. The partnership with Land Rover, a brand steeped in its own tradition of off-road capability and British luxury, seemed a natural fit. The history of the Range Rover Holland & Holland editions stretches back further than 2016. Early collaborations occurred previously on the 4.6 HSE model in very limited numbers. These early models served as precursors, testing the waters for a more formal and refined partnership. The 2016 model represents the ultimate evolution of this collaboration, building on the lessons learned from previous iterations. A Symphony of Craftsmanship: Inside and Out The 2016 Holland & Holland Edition started life as a Range Rover Autobiography Black, the already opulent apex of the Range Rover lineup. However, the Holland & Holland touch elevates it to a whole new level. Exterior Elegance: The exterior is distinguished by unique paint finishes – typically shades of green, but bespoke options are available. The most subtle visual cues are the Holland & Holland badging on the tailgate and doors, signaling its exclusivity without shouting. The unique grille and side vents are also subtle markers. The Heart of the Matter: The Interior Sanctuary: The cabin is where the Holland & Holland Edition truly shines. The use of premium leather, meticulously crafted wood veneers, and exquisite detailing creates an unparalleled sense of luxury. French Walnut Veneer: The interior features meticulously crafted French walnut veneer, sourced to match the quality found in Holland & Holland gun stocks. The wood is polished to a deep gloss and inlaid with delicate details, echoing the engraving found on their firearms. Embroidery and Detailing: The seats are adorned with intricate embroidery, often featuring Holland & Holland's signature gunstock checkering pattern. Even the door handles and other interior trim pieces receive special attention, finished in materials like polished metal or meticulously stitched leather. The Executive Treatment: Rear seat passengers are treated to individual executive-style seats with reclining functions, massage features, and individual entertainment screens. A full-length center console divides the rear seats, providing a workspace, storage, and climate controls. The Gun Case Revelation: Perhaps the most defining feature is the bespoke, locking aluminum and leather gun case housed in the cargo area. This meticulously crafted case is designed to securely transport two Holland & Holland shotguns, further solidifying the vehicle's intended purpose. The interior of the case is lined with the finest materials to protect the valuable cargo. Performance and Capability: No Compromises Despite its luxurious trappings, the 2016 Holland & Holland Edition retains the legendary off-road capability of the Range Rover. It was offered with two engine choices: Supercharged V8 Power: Most common was the 5.0-liter supercharged V8 engine, producing a substantial 550 horsepower and 502 lb-ft of torque. This engine provides effortless performance both on and off the road. Diesel Option: Some markets also offered a diesel engine option, providing enhanced fuel economy without sacrificing significant power. The Range Rover's Terrain Response system allows the driver to tailor the vehicle's settings to suit a variety of conditions, from paved roads to deep mud and snow. Air suspension provides a smooth and comfortable ride, while also allowing the vehicle's ride height to be adjusted for off-road obstacles. The Price of Exclusivity: A Statement of Value With a starting price of around $245,000 (and often much higher depending on bespoke options), the 2016 Land Rover Range Rover Holland & Holland Edition was not for the faint of heart. However, this price tag reflects the meticulous craftsmanship, the use of premium materials, and the exclusivity that comes with owning a vehicle born from such a prestigious collaboration. It wasn't simply a vehicle; it was an investment in a lifestyle. The initial price would often vary depending on location of sale and any other add ons to the base car. More Than Just a Car: A Lifestyle Enabler The Holland & Holland Edition isn't just about getting from point A to point B. It's about arriving in style and comfort, ready to embrace the outdoor pursuits that define the lifestyle of its intended owner. Whether it's a weekend shooting trip to the Scottish Highlands or a luxurious safari in Africa, this Range Rover is the ultimate companion. Legacy and Rarity The 2016 Land Rover Range Rover Holland & Holland Edition represents a high point in automotive collaboration. Its limited production numbers ensure its rarity, and its exquisite craftsmanship guarantees its enduring appeal. Today, these vehicles are highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts who appreciate the fusion of luxury, performance, and sporting heritage. The exclusivity makes it a future classic. It's a rolling piece of art that celebrates the best of British engineering and craftsmanship. In Conclusion: The 2016 Land Rover Range Rover Holland & Holland Edition wasn't just a car; it was an experience.

African Game Animals list: A Concise Field Guide Africa boasts incredible biodiversity, and a significant part of its appeal lies in its diverse game animals. This list provides a quick overview of some of the most sought-after species, focusing on key identifying features. Big Game African Elephant ( Loxodonta africana): Unmistakable. The largest land animal. Look for: Massive size, large ears shaped like the African continent, prominent tusks (present in both males and females, though females' are generally smaller). African Lion (Panthera leo): A large carnivore, apex predator. Males are readily identified by their prominent manes, which vary in color and thickness depending on age, genetics, and environment.

Blue Wildebeest: Grayish-blue coat, dark vertical stripes on the front quarters, and a long, flowing mane. Black Wildebeest: Dark brown to black coat, white tail, and a distinctive forward-curving set of horns. Zebra (Plains Equus quagga, Mountain Equus zebra, Grévy's Equus grevyi): Striped equids. Each species has unique stripe patterns. Plains Zebra: Most common, with variable stripe patterns that extend to the belly. Mountain Zebra: Distinctive dewlap (fold of skin under the throat), narrower stripes, and white underbelly. Grévy's Zebra: Largest zebra species, with narrow, closely spaced stripes and large, rounded ears. Eland (Common Taurotragus oryx & Giant Taurotragus derbianus): The largest antelope species. Common Eland: Tawny brown color, spiral horns (present in both sexes), and a distinctive dewlap on the throat. Giant Eland: Larger than the common eland, with more pronounced spiral horns and bolder striping on the flanks. Oryx (Gemsbok Oryx gazella, East African Oryx beisa, Scimitar Horned Oryx dammah): Striking antelopes with long, straight horns. Gemsbok: Black and white facial markings, long, straight horns, and a gray coat. East African Oryx: Similar to the gemsbok, but with less black on the flanks. Scimitar Horned Oryx: Distinct curved horns (nearly extinct in the wild). Waterbuck (Kobus ellipsiprymnus): Large, robust antelope found near water sources. Look for: Shaggy brown coat, white circle around the rump (the "toilet seat"), and long, curved horns (males only). Springbok (Antidorcas marsupialis): Medium-sized antelope known for its pronking display (leaping high into the air with its legs stiff). Look for: White face, dark reddish-brown stripe down the flanks, and a white flap of skin on the back that opens when pronking. Hartebeest (Red Alcelaphus caama, Lelwel Alcelaphus lelwel, Coke's Alcelaphus cokei): Large, ungainly antelopes with sloping backs and oddly shaped horns. Various species are distinguished by horn shape and coat coloration. Other Notable Species Giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis): The tallest land animal. Unmistakable due to their long necks and distinctive patterned coats. Hippopotamus (Hippopotamus amphibius): A large, semi-aquatic mammal. Look for: Barrel-shaped body, short legs, and a massive head. This list is not exhaustive, but it covers many of the iconic and commonly encountered game animals of Africa. Remember to consult detailed field guides and experienced guides for accurate identification in the field. https://m.uh.app/news/navigating-trophy-hunting-in-africa-species-regulations-and_w3pdcO3YEe-tm0W5Zik9PQ

Review of the Khan Arms Venator 12 ga: A Turkish Semi-Auto Worth Considering (But With Caveats)

Review of the Khan Arms Venator 12 ga: A Turkish Semi-Auto Worth Considering (But With Caveats) I've had the Khan Arms Venator in 12 gauge with the 760mm (30") barrel and the extra 610mm (24") rifled slug barrel for a couple of seasons now. Like many, I was drawn to it because it offered a lot of features for the price – a Turkish-made semi-auto, two barrels for versatility (bird shot and slugs), and a decent capacity of 5+1. Let's break it down: The Good Stuff Khan Arms Venator: Value for Money: This is the big one. You get a semi-auto action, two barrels, and a set of chokes for significantly less than a Beretta or Benelli. If you're on a budget and want a versatile shotgun, the Venator is definitely in the conversation. Versatility: The two-barrel setup is fantastic. The 30" barrel with chokes is great for upland birds, waterfowl, and even some clays. The 24" rifled slug barrel turns it into a capable deer gun. Being able to switch between them quickly is a real plus. Reliable Cycling (Mostly): With proper cleaning and lubrication, the Venator cycles most standard loads reliably. I've run everything from light target loads to heavy duck loads through it. Comfortable Shooting (with adjustments): The recoil pad is decent, and the gun comes with shims to adjust the stock for cast and drop. This allows you to get a better fit and reduce felt recoil. Decent Fit and Finish (for the price): The wood furniture is acceptable, especially on some of the higher-end models. The metalwork is generally well-done, though the finish isn't as durable as more expensive shotguns. The Not-So-Good Stuff Khan Arms Venator: Inconsistent Quality Control: This is the biggest issue with Turkish shotguns in general, and the Venator is no exception. Some guns are fantastic out of the box, while others have issues. I've heard stories of rough chambers, poor gas regulation, and canted ribs. Check your gun thoroughly before you buy. Choke Tube Issues: The included choke tubes can be a bit inconsistent. It's worth investing in a set of aftermarket chokes from a reputable brand for better performance and reliability. Slug Barrel Accuracy (can be hit or miss): While the rifled slug barrel is a great idea, accuracy can vary. Some guns shoot slugs incredibly well, while others struggle to group tightly, even with different loads. Experiment to find what works best for your specific barrel. Break-In Period Required: The Venator definitely needs a break-in period. It may be finicky with lighter loads until you've put a few hundred rounds through it. Finish Durability: The finish on the receiver and barrel is adequate, but it's not as durable as the finishes found on higher-end shotguns. Expect to see some wear and tear with regular use. Customer Support: Let's be honest, customer support for Turkish firearms can be a challenge. Getting replacement parts or warranty service can be time-consuming. Overall: The Khan Arms Venator is a decent shotgun for the money, offering a good blend of versatility and affordability. However, it's not without its flaws. You need to be aware of the potential quality control issues and be prepared to do some tweaking and fine-tuning to get it running smoothly. If you're willing to put in the effort, the Venator can be a solid hunting and sporting shotgun. If you prioritize absolute reliability and top-tier quality, you're better off spending more on a Benelli or Beretta. Final Verdict: A solid "B" grade shotgun. A good value for the money, but be prepared to do your homework and potentially address some minor issues. #KhanArms #Venator #TurkishShotgun #SemiAutoShotgun #12Gauge #ShotgunReview #HuntingShotgun #SlugGun #Firearms #GunReview #2ndAmendment #BudgetShotgun #TurkeyHunting #DeerHunting #WaterfowlHunting #GunOwnership #GunLife #FirearmReview #ShootingSports

Отзыв на Карабин Лось-9 в калибре .30-06 Ну что, друзья-охотники, расскажу вам как есть про мой "Лось-9" в калибре .30-06. Без прикрас, как на духу. Опыт использования у меня лет пять, и повидал я с ним всякое. Что имеем: карабин "Лось-9", калибр .30-06, покупал новым, прямо из магазина. Последняя охота (сезон косули): Охотились в смешанном лесу, дистанции в основном до 150 метров. Условия - переменная облачность, небольшой ветерок. Что понравилось - Карабин Лось-9 в калибре .30-06 (Преимущества, за что люблю): Точность: Вот тут "Лось" реально хорош. Пристрелял его пулями Norma Oryx 180 gr – стабильно укладываю три выстрела в круг диаметром около 5 см на 100 метрах. Для охоты более чем достаточно. На последней охоте косулю взял первым выстрелом метров на 120, четко в лопатку. Калибр .30-06: Универсальный зверь. Хватает и на косулю, и на кабана, если понадобится. Подбор патронов огромный, всегда можно найти оптимальный вариант под свои задачи. Надежность Карабин Лось-9 в калибре .30-06: Механизм простой как валенок, но работает безотказно. В грязь, в мороз – ни разу не подвел. Чищу, конечно, регулярно, но без фанатизма. Цена: По сравнению с импортными карабинами, "Лось" ощутимо дешевле. Для начинающего охотника – отличный вариант, чтобы понять, что тебе вообще нужно от оружия. Дерево (в моем случае): Тут кому как, но мне нравится классический вид с деревянным ложем. Приятно держать в руках, чувствуется тепло дерева, а не холод пластика. Хотя, конечно, требует более бережного обращения. Что не понравилось - Карабин Лось-9 в калибре .30-06 (Недостатки, что бесит): Вес: Тяжелый он, зараза! После нескольких часов ходьбы по лесу плечо отваливается. Особенно чувствуется, когда приходится много лазить по бурелому. Современные карабины в пластике ощутимо легче. Эргономика: Не самый удобный приклад. Мне, с моими габаритами, хотелось бы чуть больше регулировки. Особенно это заметно при стрельбе вскидкой. Магазин: Всего на 3 патрона. Маловато, конечно. Хотя, если стрелять метко, то хватает. Но психологически, когда знаешь, что у тебя всего три патрона, появляется ненужное волнение. Отделка: Тут все по-нашему, по-советски. Никаких изысков, все функционально, но не более того. Местами видны следы обработки, воронение не самое стойкое. Спуск: Требует привыкания. Ход длинный, усилие не самое приятное. После "Лося" другие карабины кажутся просто сказкой. Характеристики Карабин Лось-9 в калибре .30-06 (основные): Калибр: .30-06 Springfield Длина ствола: 550 мм Длина общая: около 1060 мм Вес: около 3.6 кг (без оптики) Магазин: 3 патрона Прицельные приспособления: целик и мушка Вывод: "Лось-9" в .30-06 – это рабочий карабин. Надежный, точный, недорогой. Но со своими недостатками, которые нужно учитывать. Если вы не гонитесь за понтами и вам нужен просто инструмент для охоты, то "Лось" – вполне достойный вариант. Особенно, если вы начинающий охотник. Но если вы готовы потратить больше денег, то, конечно, можно найти и более удобные и современные варианты. В общем, думайте сами, решайте сами. А я пойду "Лося" чистить, да патроны перебирать. Скоро новый сезон! #карабинЛось9 #калибр3006 #охота #оружие #отзыв #лось9 #3006springfield #охотничьеоружие #охотничийкарабин #выборкарабина

Navigating Trophy Hunting in Africa: Species, Regulations, and Conservation Impact

Trophy hunting in Africa remains a popular and often debated topic.  Understanding the

Navigating Trophy Hunting in Africa: Species, Regulations, and Conservation Impact Trophy hunting in Africa remains a popular and often debated topic. Understanding the specifics – the species targeted, the regulations governing hunts, the costs involved, and the potential (and real) impacts on conservation – is crucial for anyone considering participation or seeking an informed perspective on the practice. This article provides a factual overview of trophy hunting in Africa, focusing on demonstrable elements. Key Trophy Species & Their Ranges: The "Big Five" (lion, leopard, elephant, rhino, and Cape buffalo) are historically significant, but the scope of trophy hunting extends considerably beyond these animals. Key species and their typical hunting locations include: African Lion (Panthera leo): Primarily hunted in Tanzania, Zimbabwe, Namibia, and South Africa. Older males (possessing larger manes) are often targeted. Trophy fees can range from 75,000$ African Leopard (Panthera pardus): Found in similar regions as lions. Hunts often involve tracking with hounds or baiting. Trophy fees range from 40,000$ African Elephant (Loxodonta africana): Hunting is permitted in a limited number of countries, including Zimbabwe, Namibia, and South Africa, often with strict quotas based on population surveys. Trophy fees are extremely high, from 70,000$ plus daily rates. Ivory is often considered part of the trophy. Southern White Rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum simum): Hunting is legal in South Africa, but highly regulated and expensive. Trophy fees can start at 200,000 depending on horn size and permit availability. Black rhino hunts are extremely rare and exceptionally expensive (if ever permitted). Cape Buffalo (Syncerus caffer): Widely hunted across southern and eastern Africa. Mature bulls with broad horn sweeps are the desired trophies. Trophy fees vary from 20,000$ Plains Game: A broad category including species like kudu, impala, wildebeest, zebra, gemsbok, springbok, and warthog. These are generally more affordable to hunt, with trophy fees ranging from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars per animal. Popular hunting countries include South Africa, Namibia, and Botswana. Other Species: Specific regions may offer hunts for species such as sable antelope, roan antelope, nyala, sitatunga, and various bird species. Regulations and Permits: Trophy hunting is subject to stringent regulations in each country. Key aspects of these regulations include: Quotas: Governments set annual quotas based on wildlife surveys to ensure hunting is sustainable. These quotas dictate the number of animals of each species that can be legally hunted. Permits: Hunters must obtain permits for each animal they intend to hunt. These permits are often species-specific and area-specific. Hunting Seasons: Specific times of the year are designated as hunting seasons, often coinciding with periods when animals are in prime condition. Hunting Areas: Hunting is typically restricted to designated hunting areas, which may be privately owned game ranches, community conservancies, or government-managed hunting blocks. Weapon Restrictions: Regulations specify permitted firearms and ammunition types, often based on the species being hunted. Professional Hunters: In most countries, it is mandatory to hunt with a licensed professional hunter (PH). PHs are responsible for ensuring hunts are conducted legally and ethically. Export Permits: Permits are required to export trophies legally from the country where the hunt took place. This process can be complex and time-consuming. CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species) regulations also apply to certain species. Costs Associated with Trophy Hunting: Trophy hunting is an expensive undertaking. Costs typically include: Trophy Fees: The price paid for each animal harvested. Daily Rates: Charges for accommodation, meals, transport within the hunting area, and the services of the PH and trackers. Daily rates can range from 2,000+ per day, per hunter. Permit Fees: Fees for hunting permits. Accommodation Costs: Range from basic bush camps to luxury lodges. Transportation Costs: Including flights to Africa, transport to and from the hunting area, and internal flights. Taxidermy and Shipping: Preparing and shipping trophies can be a significant expense. Gratuities: It is customary to tip the PH, trackers, and camp staff. Government Taxes/Levies: Some countries impose additional taxes on hunting activities. Conservation Arguments and Evidence: The debate surrounding trophy hunting often centers on its impact on conservation. Proponents argue: Funding for Conservation: Trophy hunting generates revenue that can be used to fund anti-poaching efforts, habitat management, and community development programs. Some governments earmark hunting revenue specifically for conservation. Incentives for Wildlife Conservation: Landowners have an economic incentive to conserve wildlife if they can generate income from trophy hunting. This can lead to the protection of habitat that might otherwise be converted to agriculture or other uses. Selective Harvesting: Hunting often targets older male animals that are past their prime breeding years. This can theoretically improve the genetic health of the population. Controlling Problem Animals: Hunting can be used to manage populations of animals that are causing damage to crops or livestock. Trophy hunting in Africa is a multifaceted issue with potential benefits and drawbacks. A thorough understanding of the regulations, costs, and conservation impacts is vital for anyone involved or interested in the topic. #trophy #hunting #africa https://uh.app/news/crocodile-hunting-in-africa-with-a-carbine-an-exciting-adventure-and_I76VELfeEe-7ALHcAjcCyQ

Navigating Africa's Hunting Seasons: A Guide for the Ethical and Informed Hunter Planning an African hunting safari? Understand the key hunting seasons by country and species to ensure a responsible and successful trip. Dates, regulations, and ethical considerations covered. Africa. The word conjures images of vast savannas, thundering herds, and the primal thrill of the hunt. But a successful and ethical hunting safari hinges on one crucial element: understanding the intricate tapestry of hunting seasons. Forget simply showing up with a rifle; responsible hunting demands knowing when and where you can legally and sustainably pursue specific game. Why Hunting Seasons Matter: More Than Just Dates Hunting seasons aren't arbitrary dates on a calendar.

A Country-by-Country Overview (Key Seasons): This is where it gets specific. Instead of vague generalities, let's look at examples of hunting seasons in key African hunting destinations: South Africa: General Season: May to September is generally considered the optimal time for hunting, coinciding with the dry season. Specific Species: Kudu (March - October), Impala (All year). Waterbuck (July - November). Season dates can vary regionally, so always confirm with local authorities or your outfitter. Important Note: South Africa has a highly developed hunting industry with extensive regulations. Licences and permits are essential. Namibia: General Season: February 1 - November 30th. Specific Species: Springbok (February 1-November 30), Gemsbok (February 1-November 30), Hartmann's Zebra (Februaray 1-November 30). Important Note: Namibia's hunting regulations are particularly strict, emphasizing fair chase and ethical practices. Tanzania: General Season: July 1st to December 31st. Specific Species: Lion and Leopard hunting are strictly controlled and have very limited quotas, often requiring years of advance booking and substantial fees. Check with your outfitter well in advance. Important Note: Tanzania's hunting areas are often remote, requiring meticulous planning and logistical support. Zimbabwe: General Season: May to November. Specific Species: Elephant and Buffalo hunting are popular. Important Note: Political and economic instability can affect hunting regulations and access. Stay updated on the latest developments. Zambia: General Season: May to November. Specific Species: Sable Antelope is a highly sought-after trophy. Important Note: Zambia has a growing hunting industry with opportunities for both plains game and dangerous game. Crucial Considerations Beyond the Dates: Local Regulations: Hunting seasons and permit requirements can vary significantly between regions within a country. Never assume uniformity. Quota Systems: Many species have strict quotas, limiting the number of animals that can be harvested. Firearm Regulations: African countries have stringent firearm laws. Research import permits and temporary firearm licenses well in advance. Use a reputable gun broker if needed. Ethical Hunting Practices: Fair chase, respect for the animal, and proper handling of the harvest are paramount. Finding Reliable Information: Professional Hunting Outfitters: A reputable outfitter will be intimately familiar with local regulations and can guide you through the permit process. Government Wildlife Agencies: Official websites of national parks and wildlife authorities are the most authoritative sources of information. Hunting Associations: Organizations like the Professional Hunters' Association of South Africa (PHASA) can provide valuable resources and ethical guidelines. The Bottom Line: An African hunting safari is a significant investment of time and money. Don't let a lack of preparation derail your dream. By understanding the nuances of hunting seasons, respecting local regulations, and embracing ethical practices, you can ensure a memorable and sustainable hunting experience that contributes to the conservation of Africa's magnificent wildlife. Hunting season in Africa is more than just a time of year; it's an intricate part of a larger ecosystem. It requires careful planning, ethical conduct, and a deep understanding of the local environment. By supporting responsible hunting practices, we can contribute to wildlife conservation, empower local communities, and ensure that future generations can experience the wonder and majesty of Africa's wild landscapes.

The Beretta Legacy: A 500-Year History of Italian Firearms Excellence

Explore the incredible 500-year history of Beretta, the world's oldest gun manufacturer. From Renai

The Beretta Legacy: A 500-Year History of Italian Firearms Excellence Explore the incredible 500-year history of Beretta, the world's oldest gun manufacturer. From Renaissance workshops to modern innovation, discover the story behind this legendary Italian firearms company. For nearly half a millennium, the name Beretta has been synonymous with quality, precision, and innovation in the world of firearms. Fabbrica d'Armi Pietro Beretta Gardone Val Trompia, often simply referred to as Beretta, stands as a testament to Italian craftsmanship and enduring legacy. This is the story of how a small workshop in the Italian Alps evolved into a global leader in firearms manufacturing, serving militaries, law enforcement, and sporting enthusiasts for generations. The Genesis: A Renaissance Beginning (1526 - 1800s) The Beretta story begins in the picturesque Val Trompia, a valley renowned for its iron ore deposits and skilled metalworkers. It was here, in 1526, that Bartolomeo Beretta, a master gun barrel maker, received a contract from the Arsenal of Venice for 185 arquebus barrels. This seemingly small transaction marked the official birth of the Beretta dynasty and the commencement of a remarkable entrepreneurial journey. The document which secures this claim is stored in the Archivio di Stato di Venezia. Unlike many businesses of the time, Beretta remained a family-owned enterprise. Generation after generation, the secrets of gunsmithing were passed down, each descendant adding their own expertise and contributing to the company's growth. In the 17th and 18th centuries, Beretta continued to thrive, supplying firearms to various Italian states and building a solid reputation for quality and reliability. The company focused on producing barrels for muskets and pistols, honing its expertise in metallurgy and precision manufacturing. This early period laid the foundation for the innovation and excellence that would characterize Beretta in the centuries to come. Transition and Expansion (1800s - Early 1900s) The 19th century brought significant changes to Europe, and Beretta was not immune. The industrial revolution ushered in new manufacturing techniques, and the company began to modernize its operations. Under the leadership of Pietro Beretta (1791-1849), the company underwent a significant transformation. He introduced new production methods and expanded the range of firearms produced, catering to both military and civilian markets. The transition from artisan workshop to a more industrialized operation was gradual. Beretta carefully balanced tradition with innovation, ensuring that the quality that had defined the company for centuries was not compromised. They invested in new machinery and adopted more efficient production processes, allowing them to increase output and meet the growing demand for firearms. Giuseppe Beretta (1840-1903) took the reins and ushered in an era of further expansion and diversification. He focused on international markets, showcasing Beretta firearms at exhibitions and building relationships with foreign governments and distributors. This strategic move helped to establish Beretta as a global player in the firearms industry. World Wars and Global Recognition (1915-1945) The two World Wars significantly impacted Beretta. During World War I, Beretta was a major supplier of firearms to the Italian army. The Beretta Model 1915 pistol became a standard sidearm for Italian officers. The war years saw a dramatic increase in production, requiring Beretta to further expand its facilities and workforce. Between the wars, Beretta continued to innovate, developing new models of pistols, shotguns, and rifles. The company's commitment to quality and design earned it international recognition. World War II once again placed Beretta at the forefront of firearms production. Despite Italy's changing allegiances, Beretta continued to produce weapons, often under duress from occupying forces. The Beretta Model 1934 pistol was widely used by Italian forces, and the company also produced firearms for the German military. This period was challenging for Beretta, as it navigated the complexities of wartime production and occupation. Post-War Era and Modernization (1945-Present) The post-war era brought renewed opportunities for Beretta. The company rebuilt its facilities and focused on developing new and improved firearms for military, law enforcement, and civilian markets.

Sauer 90, калибр .30-06 отзыв о карабине

Sauer 90, калибр .30-06 отзыв о карабине Итак, имеем: Sauer 90, калибр .30-06, ложе МАСТЕРГАН, быстросъемные кольца Apel 30 мм (оригинал). Владею этим комплектом уже лет 7. Настрел приличный, побывал со мной во многих местах и ситуациях. Могу говорить о нем вполне объективно. Начну с хорошего (Преимущества): Точность Sauer 90 – это легенда, и она оправдана. С родным ложе результаты были неплохие, но МАСТЕРГАН вывел точность на новый уровень. Даже с моими кривыми руками карабин позволяет стабильно держать минуту на 100 метров. Это факт. С подбором хорошего патрона можно и лучше, но мне хватает. .30-06 – калибр универсальный, закрывает практически все мои охотничьи потребности. От кабана до лося – вполне уверенно. Да, есть калибры более специализированные, но для меня .30-06 – это золотая середина. Надежность Sauer 90 – на высоте. За все время эксплуатации ни одной задержки, ни одного клина. Работает как часы. Механизм отлажен до мелочей. Это важно, особенно когда ты далеко от цивилизации. Быстросъемные кольца Apel – отличная штука. Удобно снимать и ставить оптику, если нужно использовать механические прицельные приспособления или для чистки. Важно! Оригинал – это оригинал. Китайские реплики рядом не стояли. Люфты и неточность сведения – это не про Apel. Ложе МАСТЕРГАН – это отдельная песня. Во-первых, оно значительно улучшает эргономику. Карабин стал прикладистее и удобнее. Во-вторых, оно добавляет уверенности при стрельбе, снижает влияние отдачи. И в-третьих, оно просто красиво. Видно, что сделано руками и с душой. По ощущениям, после установки нового ложа отдача стала менее резкой и более контролируемой. Так же заметил , что кучность стала лучше, в сравнении со старым ложем, но это может быть просто совпадение. Теперь о грустном (Недостатки): Вес. Sauer 90 сам по себе не легкий карабин. А с МАСТЕРГАНом и оптикой получается уже вполне ощутимый вес. Для ходовых охот на большие расстояния это может быть проблемой. Приходится выбирать между комфортом стрельбы и весом снаряжения. Цена Sauer 90, калибр .30-06. И карабин, и кольца Apel, и ложе МАСТЕРГАН – все это стоит денег. Комплект получается не бюджетный. Но, как говорится, скупой платит дважды. За качество нужно платить. Хотя ,если брать в расчет качество сборки и детали, то цена полностью оправдывается. Последняя охота (что запомнилось): В прошлом месяце был на охоте на кабана. Охота была загонной, дистанции небольшие. Карабин Sauer 90, в калибре .30-06 показал себя отлично. Два кабана взяты чисто, оба с первого выстрела. Благодаря прикладистости МАСТЕРГАНа, быстро вскинул карабин и сделал точный выстрел. Кольца Apel в очередной раз доказали свою надежность – оптика не сбилась. Итог: Sauer 90 в .30-06 с ложем МАСТЕРГАН и кольцами Apel – это отличный, надежный и точный инструмент для охоты. Да, он не идеален, у него есть свои недостатки. Но достоинства перевешивают. Если вы ищете карабин, который будет служить вам верой и правдой долгие годы, и готовы за это заплатить, то Sauer 90 – это хороший выбор. #Sauer90 #3006 #Apel #МАСТЕРГАН #охота #карабин #отзыв #оружие #охотничьеоружие #точность #надежность #качество #опыт #охотник #быстросъемныекольца #ложе #эргономика #вес #цена

Beretta AL391 Urika 2 (12 Gauge) - A Hunter's review

I've owned and hunted with a Beretta AL391 Urika 2 for a good number of years now. It was my go-to semi-auto for eve

Beretta AL391 Urika 2 (12 Gauge) - A Hunter's review I've owned and hunted with a Beretta AL391 Urika 2 for a good number of years now. It was my go-to semi-auto for everything from waterfowl to upland birds, and even the occasional sporting clays outing. I've put it through its paces in all sorts of conditions – rain, snow, heat, dust – and have a pretty solid understanding of its strengths and weaknesses. The Good Stuff Beretta AL391 Urika 2 12-gauge: Shooting Comfort: This is where the Urika 2 truly shines. The gas-operated system does a fantastic job of soaking up recoil. Even with heavier magnum loads, it's surprisingly manageable, which translates to less fatigue during long days in the field and faster follow-up shots. Compared to inertia-driven guns, it's noticeably softer on the shoulder. Reliability (Mostly): When clean and properly maintained, the Urika 2 is generally reliable. It'll cycle a wide range of loads, from light target rounds to heavier hunting loads, without too many hiccups. However, I'll elaborate on the "mostly" part later. Balance and Handling: The gun feels well-balanced in the hands. It points naturally and swings smoothly. The weight distribution makes it easy to get on target quickly, which is crucial for fast-moving birds. It's not the lightest semi-auto out there, but the balance makes it feel less cumbersome than it actually is. Fit and Finish: Beretta has a reputation for quality, and the Urika 2 is no exception. The wood (on my model, at least) has a nice grain and a durable finish. The metal parts are well-machined and the bluing is generally well-applied. It looks and feels like a quality firearm. Versatility: The Urika 2 is adaptable. With the right chokes, it can be used for everything from doves and quail to ducks and geese. It's a true all-around shotgun. The Not-So-Good Stuff Beretta AL391 Urika 2 12-gauge: Finicky About Cleanliness: This is the Urika 2's Achilles' heel. It requires regular and thorough cleaning, especially the gas piston and operating system. If you neglect it, it will start to malfunction. Failure to eject, failure to feed – I've experienced them all when the gun is dirty. This is not a gun you can just throw in the safe after a hunt and expect it to work flawlessly next time. O-Rings: The Urika 2 is notorious for its O-rings, which are critical for the gas system's operation. They are prone to wear and tear, and when they fail (and they will fail), the gun won't cycle properly. Always keep a spare set on hand. Consider upgrading to aftermarket, more durable O-rings. Parts Availability (Becoming an Issue): The AL391 is getting older, and finding replacement parts can be a challenge. Some parts are becoming scarce and expensive. Trigger: The trigger is acceptable, but not great. It's a bit heavy and lacks a crisp break. It's certainly functional for hunting, but it's not going to win any awards for trigger performance. Overall: The Beretta AL391 Urika 2 is a solid semi-automatic shotgun that excels in comfort, balance, and versatility. It's a joy to shoot and, when properly cared for, it's a reliable hunting companion. However, be prepared to put in the work to keep it clean and maintain its O-rings. If you're willing to do that, you'll be rewarded with a shotgun that will last for years. If you're looking for a low-maintenance, "set it and forget it" type of shotgun, you might want to look elsewhere. I eventually switched to a Benelli for its inertia-driven simplicity and lower maintenance needs, but I still have a soft spot for the Urika 2. Would I recommend it? It depends. If you can find a used one in good condition at a reasonable price, and you're willing to commit to regular cleaning and maintenance, then yes, it's a good buy. But factor in the potential cost of replacement parts and the time investment required to keep it running smoothly. #Beretta #AL391 #Urika2 #12Gauge #Shotgun #Hunting #Review #Firearms #GunReview #SemiAuto #WaterfowlHunting #UplandHunting #BerettaAL391 #Gun #Shooting #Reliability #Maintenance #Orings #GasOperated #FirearmReview https://m.uh.app/news/honest-review-of-the-beretta-a300-ultima-12-gauge-semi-automatic_jGIccNNMEe-IBb9VZDoMmA

The Naroch Lake area is a unique natural treasure and the largest resort region of Belarus. Picturesque sceneries, clear lakes and rivers and healing mineral springs attract visitors from all over the world. The national park Narochansky is located in the north-west of the country and is part of the Belarusian Lake District. Naroch Lake region Naroch LakeThe Naroch Lake region is known for its natural diversity and a special landscape that was formed during the retreat of the Valdai glacier about 15,000-20,000 years ago. It was the time when famous Naroch lakes emerged. Reservoirs occupy about one-fifth of the park and represent basins of the Neman River and Western Dvina River. The rivers Stracha, Narochanka, Uzlyanka and Sviritsa are located there, too. As many as 43 lakes are situated in the national park, including 4 groups: Naroch group, Myadel group, Bolduk group and Svir group. The gems of the region are the largest Belarus’ lake Naroch (79.6km2), Myastro and Batorino. About 48% of the park is covered with pine and birch groves.

Hunting regions in Africa: South Africa, Tanzania, and Beyond Explore the diverse hunting landscapes of Africa. Discover the best regions in South Africa, Tanzania, and other African countries for thrilling and rewarding hunting experiences. Africa, a continent teeming with wildlife, has long held a special allure for hunters. While hunting is a complex and often debated topic, the undeniable reality is that carefully managed hunting operations contribute significantly to conservation efforts and provide vital revenue for local communities in many African regions. This article delves into some of the most sought-after hunting destinations on the continent, highlighting what makes each location unique and desirable. South Africa: A Hunter's Paradise of Variety and Accessibility South Africa arguably sits atop the list when it comes to accessibility and variety. Its well-developed infrastructure, stable political climate (compared to some other African nations), and abundance of game make it a popular choice for both first-time and seasoned African hunters. The diversity of landscapes, ranging from the bushveld of Limpopo to the mountains of the Eastern Cape, allows for diverse hunting experiences. Limpopo Province: Known as the "Bushveld," Limpopo is famous for its outstanding buffalo, sable, roan, and plains game hunting. This area benefits from well-managed game ranches and conservancies, ensuring healthy populations and excellent trophy quality. The climate is hot and dry, often requiring hunts to focus on early mornings and late afternoons. Eastern Cape: The Eastern Cape offers a very different experience, with mountainous terrain and challenging hunts. Kudu, eland, and bushbuck thrive here. The rugged landscape requires hunters to be in good physical condition. It's an excellent location for those who enjoy spot-and-stalk hunting. KwaZulu-Natal: While perhaps less known internationally than Limpopo, KwaZulu-Natal boasts remarkable rhino, nyala and red duiker hunting. The province also delivers scenic landscapes to hunt. Free State: Hunters can find wide-open plains in the Free State province, where springbok, black wildebeest and blesbok roam. Tanzania: The Land of Untamed Wilderness and Big Game Tanzania evokes images of classic African safaris and vast, untouched wilderness. It's a land of immense scale, with large tracts of land dedicated to game reserves and hunting concessions. Tanzania is renowned for its big game hunting, particularly for lion, leopard, elephant, and buffalo. Selous Game Reserve (Nyerere National Park): One of the largest game reserves in the world, the Selous (now largely Nyerere National Park) offers a truly wild and remote hunting experience. Hunting here is physically demanding and often conducted on foot or by boat along the Rufiji River. The Selous is famous for its large elephant and buffalo populations, making it a prime destination for big game hunters. Rungwa Game Reserve: Located in central Tanzania, the Rungwa is another vast wilderness area known for its healthy lion and leopard populations. Hunting in the Rungwa requires patience and perseverance, as the game is wild and elusive. Kilombero Valley: Characterized by lush floodplains and Miombo woodlands, Kilombero Valley is a prime habitat for buffalo and sable, and offers excellent bird hunting opportunities. Namibia: Known for its vast, arid landscapes and well-managed game farms, Namibia offers excellent plains game hunting, including gemsbok, springbok, and kudu. The country is relatively stable and has a good infrastructure, making it a comfortable and accessible hunting destination. Zimbabwe: Despite its political challenges, Zimbabwe remains a sought-after hunting destination, particularly for elephant, buffalo, and sable. The Zambezi Valley is a renowned hunting area, offering challenging and rewarding hunts. Botswana: Botswana's hunting regulations have changed in recent years, but certain concessions still offer limited hunting opportunities. The Okavango Delta and surrounding areas are known for their diverse wildlife, including lion, leopard, and buffalo. Mozambique: Mozambique is an up-and-coming hunting destination, with vast tracts of unexplored wilderness. Coutada 11 and other hunting blocks along the Zambezi River are known for their buffalo, lion, and leopard populations. Planning Your African Hunt: Essential Considerations Planning an African hunt requires careful consideration and thorough research. Here are some essential factors to keep in mind: Choosing a Reputable Outfitter: Selecting a reputable and experienced outfitter is crucial for a successful and safe hunt. Look for outfitters with a proven track record and positive client reviews. Understanding Hunting Regulations: Each African country has its own specific hunting regulations, including license requirements, hunting seasons, and species restrictions. It's essential to understand and comply with these regulations to avoid legal problems. Physical Fitness: Hunting in Africa can be physically demanding, particularly in remote areas. Ensure you are in good physical condition and prepared for long days of walking and tracking. Firearms and Ammunition: Research the firearm and ammunition regulations for your chosen hunting destination. Vaccinations and Health Precautions: Consult with your doctor about necessary vaccinations and health precautions before traveling to Africa. Malaria is a risk in many hunting areas, so take appropriate preventative measures. Gear and Equipment: Pack appropriate clothing and equipment for the climate and terrain. Essential items include comfortable hiking boots, durable clothing, a good quality rifle scope, and binoculars. Conclusion: Africa offers a wealth of hunting opportunities, from the accessible game ranches of South Africa to the untamed wilderness of Tanzania. By carefully researching your options, choosing a reputable outfitter!
