Henry StrakerHunt swap with UK?
I am looking to exchange hunting experiences with other hunting enthusiasts – all offers considered. I live on a farm in the UK, on the border between Scotland and England. We have a really good driven pheasant carried out in the traditional British way, with a team of 8 or so guns standing on pegs as beaters flush pheasants from the woods. Bags will vary from 150 to 300 in a day depending on what the guns wish. There is plenty of other game such as snipe, woodcock, hares, duck, geese. Quality salmon fishing is also available.
I have access to good roe stalking over 2500 acres and will shoot good representative bucks each year. Some muntjac may be available and depending on the year, and as a professional deer manager I may also be able to extend hunting opportunities to other deer species within the UK, such as reds and fallow, though this is not a given at any moment in time. At the least, I could offer hunt contacts for these species that will charge significantly less than that advertised via internet.
I am looking to exchange hunting experiences with real enthusiasts who would be able to reciprocate the hosting with a different quarry in their country. I am not set on anything or anywhere in particular and will consider anything (marmots, alligators and wolves being some of the species I would still like to hunt). Please leave me a message if you’d be interested.
All the best,
Henry

Brad HinnHenry,
I have very little to offer but since no one is responding I thought I would chime in.
I absolutely love Scotland and have always wanted to shoot at a driven pheasant shoot.
All that being said I have very little to bring to the table. I do not have any shooting that I could trade that would be worth your wile.
I hope someone else chimes in as this would be a great deal for someone!

CrazyhorseconsultingWhile what is being listed does not really interest me, I believe therec are folks that would be interested.
It sounds like a good deal to me if it can be put together legally.

justanotherhunterWell, I would like to hunt/fish as you describe in England....someday! I am still a few years away from graduation, but if you didn't mind a potentially large delay you are more than welcome to come to my neck of the woods!
With proper planning/applications you can hunt pronghorn antelope(female tags without a doubt, male tags....very likely), spike bull elk, grouse, chukar partridge, ducks, geese, swan, marmots(the yellow bellied variety), groundhogs, prairie dogs, and a few others.
