Погодные условия и их влияние на охоту Погода оказывает огромное влияние на успех охоты. Например, ветряная и облачная погода может помочь скрыть охотника от добычи, а дождь усиливает движение зверей. Важно также учитывать влажность, температуру и состояние воздуха: многие виды животных становятся более активными перед непогодой. Постоянный мониторинг погоды перед выездом на охоту — ключ к успешному дню в дикой природе. Полезные ссылки: https://accuweather.com/hunting-weather #охота #погода #природа #охотники #дикаяприрода

Our rustic lodge was built in the early 1900s and was one of the original farmhouses on the plantation. We have over 30 thousand acres of mostly farmland mixed with some river bottoms and seven miles of river frontage. Fifteen years ago, we implemented land management techniques that set us apart from the rest. We perform daily maintenance throughout the year, to ensure quality hunting fields and pristine maintained grounds.

The history of falconry in Saskatchewan dates back to the 1950s when the Saskatchewan Falconry Association was formed. There are about 25 active falconers in the province. The steps to become one of them are quite extensive as you have to go through a training which lasts several years. During the hunting season, the falconer and his bird will hunt prey such as ducks, quail, partridge, and black grouse.

Hog Hunting with My Trusty CZ Carbine There’s something about stepping into the woods after sunset that gets the blood pumping. Down here in the South, night hunts for wild hogs aren’t just tradition - they’re necessity. These feral beasts tear up crops, damage land, and challenge even the most seasoned outdoorsman. So tonight, just like many before, I headed out under the stars with my faithful hunting partner - my CZ carbine. 🐗 Tracking the Night Menace Wild hogs are no joke. Fast, smart, and aggressive, they test your skill every step of the way. But with the CZ tucked against my shoulder, I feel ready for whatever comes charging through the brush. There’s a reason I swear by this rifle: it’s balanced, reliable, and built for precision. That’s exactly what you need when you’re lining up a shot in pitch black with just a thermal scope for company. 🌾 The Setup Whether it’s the thick pinewoods of Georgia, the mesquite scrub in Texas, or the dense swamps of Florida—every state’s

The season is closed, we are waiting for the new season! Speaking about hunting in 🇮🇷 Iran for ibex and rams, we have already become accustomed to the fact that the season is regulated not only by the time of year and the life cycles of animals. Within these frameworks, there are even stricter restrictions on issuing official hunting permits. The permitted time at the beginning of 2025 was just enough for several groups of hunters to manage to get everything ✅ planned. 📆 The hunt in January and February was very successful for our hunters, 💯 everyone got a result! We got a trans-Caspian urial, two red rams, an Esfahan mouflon, two bezoar ibex. We are very pleased and grateful to our hunters that everyone fought to the end, despite the difficult weather conditions, very difficult landscapes and strong winds 🌬 👏 Congratulations and accept applications for the next season: Esfahan mouflon, Kerman ram, Persian desert and bezoar ibex, red ram.

Browning X-Bolt chambered in .30-06 review Alright, here's a breakdown of my experience with a Browning X-Bolt chambered in .30-06, particularly focusing on the upgrades of an aluminum bedding block and a Mastergun stock. I'm coming at this from the perspective of someone who hunts regularly and tinkers with their rifles quite a bit. Overall Impression Browning X-Bolt: The X-Bolt, out of the box, is a solid hunting rifle. Reliable, accurate enough for most hunting situations, and relatively lightweight. However, like most factory rifles, it has room for improvement, particularly in terms of consistency and feel. That's where the bedding block and the Mastergun stock came in. Browning X-Bolt (Base Rifle): Pros: Smooth Bolt Action: The 60-degree bolt lift is quick and easy, especially when you need a fast follow-up shot. It's definitely a step up from some of the more clunky bolt actions out there. Lightweight Browning X-Bolt: Carrying this rifle through the woods all day is ma

The most ferocious of the big five Hunting for African 🐂 buffalo according to the classics: find tracks and the right buffalo places, honestly walk many kilometers in the tracks of the herd or fight for dagga. Aim and shoot. In 🇿🇼 Zimbabwe, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find record trophies. The average trophy there is now 37-38 inches, but with an old weighty base. In 🇹🇿 Tanzania, especially the western part of the country, and some areas in the north, they produce record buffaloes with sizes in the region of 46-50 inches. And 🇲🇿 Mozambique is simply a paradise for those who care not only about the size of the trophy, but also about fair pursuit and choosing from a great variety. You can try any area, buffalo is in the north, in Nyassa and hunting blocks around, and in the west in the Marromeu swamps, and in the south, closer to South Africa in the forests and national parks.

The Best hares hunter in Canada. Lynx is considered to be the very orderly in Canada who brings the number of hares in the region back to normal. No, if a black-tailed deer, duck or mole comes across on the route, the Canadian lynx will definitely challenge them. But from 30 to 97% of the lynx's usual diet consists of hares. Hunting of the Canadian lynx for hares has become a kind of salvation for the locals. Those who have not experienced the rapid uncontrolled spread of hares or rabbits will not understand the essence of the problem. Here it is worth remembering the problem of rabbits in Australia, for example. Where there is no suitable predator, there is a catostrophic increase in the number of rodents and they simply destroy the nature around. Due to the poor diet, the Canadian lynx had to hone its hunting skills to perfection. If a lynx attacks, it means it clearly knows that it will have lunch. If the lynx is not absolutely sure of the result, it will not even attempt a throw

Review of the Franchi Horizont .30-06 with Dual Brake Muzzle Device As an avid hunter with years of experience in various hunting conditions, I recently had the opportunity to test the Franchi Horizont chambered in .30-06, equipped with the Dual Brake Muzzle Device (DTK). My experience using this rifle has provided me with valuable insights, and I’d like to share both the pros and the cons. Pros: Precision and Accuracy: The Franchi Horizont impresses with its accuracy. Even at longer ranges, I found it easy to achieve tight groups. This is crucial during hunting trips where a precise shot can make the difference between success and failure. Build Quality: The construction of the Franchi Horizont .30-06 is commendable. The materials used feel robust and well-crafted. The wood and metal finish give it a classic look, and the ergonomic design fits comfortably in hand, making it great for those long hours in the field. Recoil Management: The addition of the Dual Brake Muzzle Device is

Wild boar family. South of Russia. Wild boars are found in mixed or deciduous forests, sometimes found in steppes. Within Russia, they are distributed almost throughout its entire European part. Beyond the Urals, the wild boar's habitat stretches in a relatively narrow strip across the Asian part of the country to the Far East, where one of its most significant populations is found. Wild boar hunting is one of the most ancient, interesting and predatory hunts. The wild boar has always been considered a worthy trophy by hunters from Russia. The main purpose of wild boar hunting is the extraction of wild meat. Wild boar is less often hunted as a trophy animal. Wild boar meat is very popular with Russian hunters, with the exception of traditionally Muslim regions such as Chechnya or Dagestan. Wild boars are hunted there, but meat is not eaten, because according to the laws of Islam it is considered unclean. The taste of wild boar is in no way inferior to pork, but at the same time it

Honest Review of the Sabatti Rover 870 in .308 Win with a 560mm Barrel As an avid hunter, I’ve had the opportunity to test the Sabatti Rover 870 in .308 Win with a 560mm barrel, paired with the Pulsar Digisight Ultra N455 LRF scope. Here’s my detailed take on this setup, including its strengths and weaknesses. Pros: Accuracy (Sub-MOA Performance): The Sabatti Rover 870 is a true performer when it comes to accuracy.

The ergonomics are comfortable, and the weight distribution makes it easy to handle, even during extended hunting sessions. Versatility: The .308 Win caliber is a proven choice for medium to large game, and the Sabatti Rover 870 handles it beautifully. Whether I was h

Honest Review of the Merkel Model 96K Drilling 7.65 + 2 x 12/76 with Collimator Scope As an avid hunter with years of experience, I recently had the opportunity to test the Merkel Model 96K Drilling in the 7.65 + 2 x 12/76 configuration, which comes with a collimator scope. This is a unique and versatile firearm, and after several hunting trips, I’m ready to share my thoughts on its performance, design, and practicality. Pros: Versatility: The Merkel 96K Drilling is a true multi-purpose firearm. The combination of a 7.65mm rifle barrel and two 12/76 shotgun barrels makes it ideal for a variety of hunting scenarios.

Hunting for a Hare with a Dog: A Day in the Field with ROS the Spaniel Today, my red spaniel ROS showed exceptional skill in tracking a wounded hare. He picked up the scent of the injured animal, chased it down with determination, and finished the job with a clear voice. The emotions I’m feeling right now are overwhelming - not because of the hunt itself, but because of the dog’s incredible work. Thanks to ROS, there’s no wounded animal left suffering in the field. I’m sure many hunters will understand this feeling. While there are breeds that might perform this task even more spectacularly, ROS is my dog, and this was only his second time hunting hare. It’s all part of his training, and I’m proud to share how it went. Here’s how it unfolded: We entered a thicket and emerged into a small clearing. I spotted a hare running along the edge of the field, clearly flushed out by hunters who had gone further ahead. I took a couple of shots through the tall grass, but ROS didn’t see t

SOLOGNAC 1.5-6×44 Optical Scope Review I recently had the opportunity to test the SOLOGNAC 1.5-6×44 optical scope, a product from France that has been generating much interest among hunting enthusiasts and marksmen alike. After using this scope in various conditions, I would like to share my detailed and honest impressions. Quality and Build: From the moment I unpacked the SOLOGNAC scope, I could tell it was built with care. The construction feels robust, and the scope has a solid, durable outer casing that can withstand the rigors of outdoor use. The lens caps are included and fit snugly, which is a nice touch for protecting the optics during transport. The overall design is ergonomic, and it certainly looks the part on a hunting rifle. Optical Performance: The optical clarity of the SOLOGNAC 1.5-6×44 is impressive. With a variable magnification range between 1.5 and 6x, this scope is versatile enough for close-range and medium-range shooting. I found the 1.5x setting to be part

In Kazakhstan, you can hunt ibex in different places. To combine hunting with maral and roe deer, we choose the Dzungarian Alatau region. All this at the beginning of the season. For those looking only for ibex or ibex with exceptional trophy qualities, we recommend the region on the border with 🇰🇬 Kyrgyzstan - Granitogorsk - and hunting in a colder period - October-December. ⛰ The mountains simply go into the sky and only perseverance and a reliable team of guides help. We had a whole day's trek. From dawn to dusk, including an ascent of 4000 m. Almost the entire way on foot. But depending on the weather and other conditions, horses are also used. Minus 5.5 thousand calories per day, 25-28 km of travel. And the inclusion of the final 💪 moral and volitional on the descent. The ibex is bagged, happy with the trophy, but most of all ➡️ proud and pleased with himself! Such overcomings are remembered for a lifetime.

Last weekend, I embarked on an unforgettable hunting trip in the heart of California’s wilderness. The journey began at the crack of dawn, with the sun casting a golden hue over the sprawling landscapes of the San Bernardino National Forest. Armed with my gear and a sense of adventure, I set out to explore the rugged terrain. The forest was alive with the sounds of nature, from the rustling leaves to the distant calls of wildlife. As I trekked deeper into the woods, I encountered a variety of game, including black bears and wild pigs. The thrill of the hunt was palpable, and every moment was a testament to the beauty and challenge of the great outdoors. One of the highlights of the trip was spotting a majestic mule deer. With careful precision and respect for the animal, I took my shot. The experience was both humbling and exhilarating, reminding me of the importance of conservation and responsible hunting practices. After a successful day in the field, I set up camp under the starlit

🇺🇸 An epic hunt that gave us the opportunity to explore some incredible and untouched areas, where we found not only plenty of Marals, but an adventure like no other. Not every day one gets the privilege of hunting on these beautiful mountains surrounded by wolves, bears, ibex, and wild boars amongst other creatures. This majestic and huge bull was spotted on our first hunting day, and from that moment we knew he was the one we wanted, which somehow, made our adventure even more special. Trophy aside, the way this Maral patrolled his area was a clear sign of dominance and no other bull dared to confront him during the 3 days we tried to cut distance with him. Regarding the trophy, the weight of the antlers -despite having to wait for the skull to dry out completely, where the expected weight loss could be up to 2 kg- proves this will clearly be the biggest Maral harvested in the area this year. Luck is an important factor, but without attitude and resilience, none of this would have

Cambodia’s wildlife still faces high risk of hunting Amid a shortage of rangers and with villagers facing financial difficulties, officials said Cambodia’s wildlife continues to face a high risk of poaching. Sreng Cheaheng, head of the department of environment in Stung Treng, told CamboJA that the selling of illegal wild meat has significantly decreased in the province with education and enforcement. But, he said, poaching continues as people rely on it for their income. ‘’As of today, wild meat selling still can be seen but it is in a small amount compared to before. The authorities work every day to observe where people sell these wild meats. However, it is impossible to completely stop it because it is a part of the income of residents living in this province,” he said. Cheaheng told CamboJA that arrests have dropped, with just two people arrested for hunting wild meat last year. ‘’There are different types of wildlife that have been hunted but wild boar and deer are on the top

St. Clair County Sheriff shares safety tips for deer firearms season Always tell someone where you are hunting and when you should be expected back home. Wear as much hunter's orange as possible to increase your visibility. Hunter's orange should be worn on the outermost layer of clothes and visible from all directions. For those recreating outdoors near hunting areas, such as hikers, wear orange so you can be seen by hunters. Obey "No Trespassing" signs. Check the forecast and dress for the weather. Carry some type of two-way communication device that receives service in remote areas. Treat every weapon as if it were loaded and do not put your finger on the trigger unless you are prepared to shoot. Check your equipment regularly and keep it well-maintained. Be sure of your target and what is in front of it, immediately behind it, and beyond it. Wear hearing and eye protection − this will help protect your sight and hearing from damage.

5 Factors for Rut Hunting Success 1. Weather Having the right weather can influence how much rutting activity you see — or don't see — on any given hunt. A cold front with a little rain to break a stale weather pattern, followed by a clear, crisp morning can seem to bring deer out of the woodwork. On the flip side, warm weather can slow the action to a crawl. Contrary to popular belief, the weather doesn't determine when deer breed. But it does influence how much of that breeding activity you see out in the open during daylight. Does often hug tight to thick cover when in estrus anyway, and they move even less when it's warmer than average. Bucks don't seem to cruise in the open as often, or for as long, during those unseasonably warm days, either. Don’t Miss: Big Bucks in Nasty Places 2. Available Bedding Cover Rut tactics are almost always terrain-based. So if you aren’t hunting around the type of quality bedding cover deer need this time of year, action will likely be minimal. Fi

8 Great New Hunting Rifles for 2022 Though I absolutely love those rifles which have been with me for decades, and have shared so many indelible memories, I still get excited to see the new crop of rifles introduced each year, and always ponder the possibilities of creating new memories with a new model. A hunting rifle can become a life-long friend, but like any friend, there’s the first time you meet, and like so many friendships, sometimes things don’t work out. Whether it’s a long-range bolt gun for sheep, elk and antelope, or a thumper of a lever gun destined to pursue bear in the spring vegetation, or an all-around deer gun, the possibilities are endless. Let’s take a gander at what’s new for 2022 for the American hunter.1.

Hunting Squirrels: Which .22 is for You? Lever-action, single-shot, bolt-action, semi-automatic and pump. When we picture a .22-caliber rifle in our mind, one of these traditional guns is sure to appear. However, a new style is emerging as a great sporting tool. Lately, .22-caliber rifles are being built on tactical rifle frames. These guns may look a lot different, but when it comes to putting a round in a squirrel’s ear they all work the same. With squirrel season in full swing in the Midwest, what better time to take a look at America’s favorite rifle caliber. Literally billions of rounds of .22-caliber rimfire ammunition are fired each year. Most of it is shot while plinking and hunting squirrels and rabbits, though small varmints like groundhogs are also heavily hunted with rimfire guns Today, almost all rimfire ammo in common use is of .22-caliber, with only a few limited exceptions (like the .17 HMR). This was not always the case, however. One of the most sought-after "Yankee"

How to Introduce Your Older Hunting Dog to a Puppy Some Tips for Young and Old Dogs Living Together You're likely pretty excited about bringing your new puppy home. Your older hunting dog might not share the same feelings. Ways to introduce your adult dog to the new pup in your life follow here. Short, Positive Interactions Your adult dog has learned plenty in your time together. It's the pup that needs some schooling. Dogs of course have instinctive ways of sorting out the pecking order. An older canine has earned territorial rights over your home, yard, truck and where you exercise (and hunt) this dog. Enter the puppy. S/he has no rules and is full of endless energy. The older dog is set in his or her ways. A hard-charging, wildly running pup changes this. Read their body language as they interact. The older dog will likely growl when the pup pushes things too far. Slowly, surely, the young dog should get the message, and show increasing respect for its elder. You've introduced this

Aoudad Hunting: The Poor Man’s Sheep Like countless other big game hunters across the U.S., I dream of one day roasting tenderloins in a high-altitude camp as the flickering firelight casts its glow on a set of wild sheep horns strapped to my backpack. Be it a fully curled Rocky Mountain bighorn, Dall, Stone or Desert, I don’t care — I just want to be a sheep hunter, the kind that the legendary Jack O’Connor was as he roamed the withering heights with his .270 in hand. Unfortunately, being a sheep hunter is my dream, not my reality thanks to staggeringly high hunting costs and precious few tags available through state draws. But there is hope for a wannabe sheep hunter like myself, hope that comes in the form of a beautiful nomadic animal with sweeping horns that have found their way to American shores. Those sheep are the imported aoudad sheep, or Barbary sheep. Native to the rocky, desert mountains of North Africa, the sheep have made themselves quite at home in the similarly dry a

5 Snow Goose Stops You’ve Never Tried Chasing spring snow geese is one of the fastest growing pursuits in hunting, and with good reason. The most obvious of its attractions are the tens of millions of birds that string out from Texas to the Canadian tundra and from the coast of California to the Eastern Shore. But as the spring migration has ballooned, so has the hunting competition. Meanwhile, it takes plenty of gear and cash to get into the game: e-callers, massive decoy rigs, pallets of ammunition and gasoline for finding fresh birds for the next day’s flight. You might wonder why we go to the trouble. But if you spend one day under twisting white flocks with 10 shotgun shells in an extension magazine before you run it to the plug again and again, you’ll understand. Arkansas, Missouri and South Dakota are the hotbeds for chasing the reverse migration, but a few places are still devoid of big crowds, no matter if you’re a do-it-yourself or pay-to-play hunter.

How the Grunt Call Came to Be Realtree pro staffer Brad Harris was grunting up whitetails long before deer calling was cool Brad Harris was high in a tree in Mingo Swamp in southeast Missouri when a 6-point buck walked by at about 80 yards. Harris doesn’t remember the exact year, but it was in the ’70s. He was working in the mines back in those days, and he was among several in a group who loved to bowhunt and spent about every free minute of a break talking about bows, arrows, broadheads, and whitetails. This was back in the day, Harris says, when top-of-the-line hunting equipment was a 45-pound Shakespeare recurve with cedar arrows, and just getting a deer — anything with legal antlers — was a huge accomplishment. One of those buddies at the mine had told Harris that his brother had been hunting and listened as a little buck, standing right under his tree, had made a curious grunting sound. The guy pinched his nose and re-created the grunt himself. Harris had never heard a whitetail

Small Game Alaska As we pushed our way through the waist deep snow the big snowshoe hare just sat there and waited. His “white” camouflage blended perfectly with the snow, but not quite good enough to keep me, and my 8-year old son, Eli from pushing forward. With each step I figured he would bolt, but he didn’t so we decided to keep moving towards him. I slowly raised the BowTech bow and settled the pin. In most states hunting small game usually takes a back seat to hunting big game, especially here in Alaska. With moose, caribou and sheep practically around every corner most people forget that the state also harbors some of the finest small game pursuits in the country. As hunters we all live for the fall and rightly so. Bears, sheep and goats are constantly on our minds and we absolutely cannot wait until the season opens.

These are one of the most important hunting tips for starters. Stealth and Silence Always be as quiet as you possibly can. Even the faintest twig, branch, clothing and equipment rattling will alert the animals. Dress appropriately, gear up lightly, and don’t use velcro clothing or anything that would make a lot of noise. Navigating Your Surroundings Become acquainted and scout out the hunting area. Depending on which game animals you hunt, it’s always a good idea to familiarize yourself with the perimeter, and use landmarks so you won’t get lost. Patience Goes a Long Way Many hunters don’t have the patience to acquire a clean shot. There’s a lot of waiting, but it pays off in the end when a deer appears on your scope. Persistence is key. Mind Your Scent Animals have heightened senses, and it’s a good idea to become as odorless as possible. There are many chemicals and cosmetic products that mask your scents. That means no smoking, no alcohol, and no smelly food. The wind factor is a

Hunting in Northern China Today, you can’t legally go hunting in China. A century ago, however, things were different, and you can find testimony on pages of old books. Here we reproduce a few extracts from one such book, “Fur and Feather in Northern China” by Arthur de Carle Sowerby, F.R.G.S., published in 1914. Bats, admittedly, are mentioned only in passing, but we hope you’ll enjoy the stories about wild sheep, wapiti, and antelope. Wild Sheep No one who has not experienced it can form more than the faintest idea of what “the long day’s patience, belly-down on frozen drift” while waiting to get a shot at the “head of heads feeding out of range” means. Day after day the hunter goes out, and climbs the steep and rocky ascents to the sheep range : he crosses wind-swept uplands, white with the driven snow: he scales treacherous precipices, jagged with needles and spurs of crumbling granite : ever with his trusty glasses to his eyes he keeps spying, spying, spying, till one day he se

Lever-action rifles may seem antiquated, but for some folks, they offer a great combination of hunting aptitude and self-defense effectiveness. The X Model from Henry takes their proven action and adds a bit of a tactical flair with synthetic furniture, a short rail at the end of the fore-end, and a threaded muzzle. Muzzle brakes or a suppressor can be easily added, and even for a camp rifle, being able to easily attach a light is a well-thought-out attribute. It’s a short, handy rifle that can be operated quickly and maneuvered well in tight spaces and cycled very quickly. Your caliber selection will depend on your needs. If you’re dealing with lots of bears as well as two-legged threats, the .45-70 will be the way to go. Otherwise, the .357 or .44 mag options offer plenty of power for hunting deer, and offer increased magazine capacity. Not to mention that the increased barrel length will give you better performance than a handgun will, with mild to little recoil. MSRP: $970

Cheetahs are fairly easy to tame and have been helping people hunt since ancient Egypt. Cheetah hunting was widespread in the Middle Ages among the rulers of the Middle East. Predators were taught to stay on the horse behind the rider and released to pursue the prey when they approached it at an acceptable distance. Having killed the victim, the cheetah waited for the hunter and received its insides as a reward.
