’Tis The Season – WTA TAGS 2022 Renewal Season

I know, it may seem like subliminal advertising, showing all these photos of happy WTA TAGS clients on their successful hunts in 2021. But we like seeing hunters with their trophies (and hearing their stories) so we thought you’d like to see them too. If there’s one thing we’ve learned in years in this business, it’s that hunters like to share their success stories and they/we like to hear about others’ success stories.

These photos are indeed worth a thousand words. And these are just a few we received and I had a difficult time (Not really. I enjoyed going through them all.) paring down the album of photos to these to show you—and prime the pump for next year. I guess it’s not subliminal advertising if I come out and tell you up front this is my way of reminding you that the 2022 WTA TAGS season is fast approaching.

So, if you are a WTA TAGS client, you can expect your updated TAGS Portfolio/Invoice to arrive in the mail in the coming weeks. Your portfolio will reflect your current bonus point status going into the 2022 draw as well as updated pricing on a boatload of hunting adventures. And, just so you know, it will also reflect any specific notes related to your application selections. (If you are not yet a WTA TAGS client, call and let’s get rolling.)

So, please watch your mail in the coming weeks because you will need to renew your 2022 WTA TAGS Portfolio/Invoice and to make it convenient there are two ways to renew.

1. Renew by mail: Simply fill out the blue credit card slip you’ll find in the WTA mailing, place it in the provided return envelope and fire it back to us. I always tell clients that renewing by mail is for our clients with a fairly straight-forward portfolio where no changes are needed from the prior year. It’s simple, quick, and convenient. Once your blue credit card slip is received in our office, we will send you a receipt via email confirming your 2022 application selections.

2. Renew by phone: This is the fastest and, frankly, the safest method of renewal. Once you receive your WTA TAGS 2022 Portfolio/Invoice renewal statement in the mail, simply call our office. If it’s a straight-forward renewal with no changes necessary, any WTA employee can quickly and efficiently assist you. However, if changes are needed or you would like to talk strategy (We really like talking strategy.), you will be connected to your dedicated WTA TAGS consultant. We can be reached at 1-800-755-TAGS (8247) between 8 am and 5 pm (MST).

That’s it. That’s what I wanted to tell you. Well, that and catch your attention (and subliminally plant a few seeds in your mind) with the photos. So here’s to wishing you the best of luck in the 2022 draws.

Wait. One more thing, please remember the key to drawing the West’s most coveted hunting tags is persistence. Stay loyal to the process and great tags will come your way. Trust us on this. At the very least, you will gain valuable bonus points that will help you in future draws.

Wait. Two more quick reminders. If you are a WTA TAGS client we will apply for your kids, 18 years of age or younger, free of charge. And if you are a Cabela’s/Bass Pro credit card holder and use your card for payment, you will receive those valuable points—and, speaking of credit card points, you can redeem Cabela’s/Bass Pro points when paying.

OK. Seriously. That’s it. Just know we are here for you and will do our best to help you draw the TAG OF A LIFETIME!

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.
