Argentina: A Hunter’s Dream Destination

Dino Bugni
|  
Species: Red Stag
Location: Argentina

If you love chasing elk during the rut, Argentina offers an unforgettable off-season alternative: hunting trophy red stag during the roar. Beyond stags, the country boasts an abundance of other world-class game (axis deer, Asiatic water buffalo, blackbuck, sheep, etc.), stunning landscapes, and unmatched hospitality. Worldwide Trophy Adventures has partnered with the best outfitters in Argentina to ensure your trip delivers the same adrenaline-pumping excitement as elk hunting, only in a completely different part of the world. From planning the trip to ensuring your trophy gets home, WTA makes this dream adventure seamless, easy and unforgettable.

Travel Made Simple

Getting to Argentina is surprisingly simple. There are direct overnight flights from major U.S. cities like Houston, Dallas, Atlanta, and Miami to Buenos Aires. Once you land, WTA’s partner outfitters take care of everything from ground transportation to the nitty gritty of the hunt. Bringing your own rifle? WTA consultants guide you through the paperwork to make it hassle-free. If you prefer traveling light, high-quality camp rifles are readily available and can make the travel experience much easier. Archery gear? No problem. Argentina is archery-friendly and perfect for bowhunters seeking a challenge.

La Pampa: Trophy Red Stag and More

If you’re interested in hunting monster red stag, blackbuck, axis deer, or Asiatic water buffalo, the La Pampa region in Argentina is the place for you. The free-range stags are among the biggest in the world, rivaling those found in New Zealand. If you’re hoping for a gigantic stag (think 450 to 500 inches) the estate hunts are for you.

The hunting in La Pampa is accessible and productive, with experienced guides using spot-and-stalk techniques to get hunters within range of mature animals. The roar is when you’ll want to chase stags. Think the excitement of bugling elk but in a different hemisphere. March is the peak of the roar, and WTA’s consultants often have this area booked solid during the season. This region also offers a variety of exotic sheep species.

Rugged Adventures in Patagonia

Patagonia is the place for hunters seeking a more challenging experience. Its mountainous terrain is reminiscent of the American West. These hunts often involve horseback riding and climbing pine-covered ridges. Patagonia’s stags aren’t as big as La Pampa’s, but the incredible country you’re in and the adventure-style hunt more than make up for it.

WTA works with a world-class outfitter in Patagonia that has exclusive access to a 200,000-acre ranch. Hunters who are up for an adventure-style hunt will find everything they’re looking for. This is a true wilderness hunt.

Add-On Options

One of the best parts about hunting in Argentina combining your hunt with fishing and wingshooting. Patagonia’s fishing is fantastic. Anglers come from all over the world to fish for trout and golden dorado. Argentina is well known for its dove hunts. You’ll have the opportunity to shoot hundreds of birds in a single day. These options may seem overwhelming, but we’ll help you sort it out. Our consultants can help you build an itinerary that combines hunting, fishing and wingshooting in one well-rounded experience, if you prefer a mixed-bag trip.

Comfort and Hospitality

Our vetted outfitters provide hunters with comfortable accommodations, which can be nice after a long day of hunting. Our partner lodges feature private bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, inviting common areas, and gourmet food. Each day starts with a hearty breakfast, a break midday for a gourmet lunch, and things wind down with evening cocktails and dinner. You’ll experience delicious Argentine cuisine and local wines.

Hassle-Free Trophy Preparation

Our outfitters manage every detail once your hunt is done to prepare and export your trophy. Skulls are boiled and hides are dried for you. A team of trusted brokers manages the entire process, ensuring your trophy meets all regulations and arrives home in perfect condition, ready for your taxidermist.

The WTA Advantage

Booking an international hunt can feel overwhelming but our team makes it easy. We’ve locked down the top-tier outfitters in the country and have a team of consultants ready to help you plan every detail. We’ll do everything possible to make sure you have a seamless and unforgettable adventure.

Argentina offers a wonderful mix of hunting, fishing, and wingshooting opportunities. It’s a dream hunt for many, and WTA can help you make the dream come true. Contact a WTA consultant today to start planning your adventure.

Why Europe Should Be Your Next Hunting Destination

Why Europe Should Be Your Next Hunting Destination

When hunters think of the ultimate adventures, Africa and Alaska are usually at the top of the list. Yet tucked away in Europe is a world-class hunting experience that most never know enough about to wish for. It’s a mistake, one I made myself for years, until a recent trip to Slovakia opened my eyes to what hunting in the Old World is truly like. In Europe, centuries of tradition reshape your thoughts about international hunting.

The Hunt You Didn’t Expect

My group of seven rolled into Slovakia in early August, the perfect time for the roe deer rut. We had booked five tags per person through WTA, which initially made me nervous. How could taking that many animals be sustainable? But game management in Europe works on an entirely different level. Their wildlife departments track populations down to individual animals, maintaining detailed records unlike anything we have in the States. They issue licenses based on precise population data, and in many areas, they still need to conduct additional culls because game numbers are so healthy.

The hunting itself felt foreign yet familiar. Watching roe bucks chase does across open ag fields reminded me of hunting pronghorn during the rut. We watched as bucks chased does miles over the horizon, only to return and chase more. We would use the standing corn and sunflower rows for cover, glassing open areas where roe deer congregated on clover and alfalfa food plots.

The guides knew every ridge and valley, pointing out where certain bucks lived and separating solid trophies from medal-class deer. Some mornings started at 3 a.m., with hunters in position before dawn. While some stayed afield all day, others slipped back to the lodge for a late-morning feast and rest before the evening hunt.

More than One Species

The hunting was amazing, and we were not limited to roe deer. Once we arrived, we learned that we could add mouflon and red stag to our hunt. Wild boar roamed the same areas. Come September, fallow deer would be available as well. It’s a mixed-bag type of hunt, where you can customize your hunt on the fly.

The mouflon hunting took us into mountains that could have been transplanted from Montana. We parked at the end of a logging road and stalked through timber, glassing for those distinctive curved horns. On one stalk, we heard an odd noise: two mouflon rams butting heads. Following the sound, we intercepted a bachelor band of rams, all jostling and sparring as they moved through the forest. When the biggest ram separated from the group at 70 yards, I made my shot at a free-range animal that had lived wild in these mountains for years.

The quality of the animals shocked everyone. Multiple hunters took mouflon that exceeded expectations. One member of our group dropped a 320″ red stag that wasn’t even on our radar when we planned the trip. These aren’t high-fence operations—this is free-range hunting across extremely varied terrain.

Hunting Croatia: Europe’s Overlooked Paradise

Hunting Croatia: Europe’s Overlooked Paradise

Croatia may be best known for its thousand-plus Dalmatian islands and historic cities like Dubrovnik, but it’s far more than a sightseer’s paradise. This diverse country also ranks among the world’s premier hunting destinations—rivaling Spain and Africa in both variety and quality of game. From the lowlands along the Danube River where some of Europe’s largest red stags reside, to the rugged mountain ranges that harbor massive brown bears, to the coast where mouflon roam, Croatia offers hunters an incredible range of hunting opportunities. Croatia has long been one of WTA’s most popular destinations. And it just keeps getting better!

Here are some of the top choices, beginning in the north and stretching south to cover the full breadth of the country.

Croatian Mountain Lodge: Red Stag, Roe Deer, Brown Bear, Fallow Deer, & Mouflon

Worldwide Trophy Adventures offers a jewel in the Dinaric Alps. This hunting lodge is one of a kind. One of our most popular destinations sits just west of Zagreb, near the town of Ogulin. Our beautiful four-bedroom lodge sits in a secluded forested area surrounded by a variety of species. The surrounding woods hold brown bear, red stag, fallow stag, mouflon, wild boar, roe deer, and more. A world-class staff, excellent meals, and personable guides await your visit above the Adriatic Sea.
