I have a hunt in Spain coming up for Fallow deer. The outfitter is charging me a $1500 Game Department fee. Has anyone that has hunted Spain in the past heard of this? A friend that hunted about a year ago with another outfit did not pay a Game Dept. fee.

Gámez departament fee? Never herid about it. I am spanish And Live in Spain! Give me a pm if help needed

To figure out your cost of hunt in
Spain, you must specify the price you are offered, what is included in the Price ?

Transportation to and from the airport.
The number of hunting days.
Number of night’s full-board accommodation.
Hunting license.
Hunting Guide.
Trophy fee, if hunted in the Regional game reserves, so they charge a trophy fee here too, (Game Department fee) but this is usually included in the amount known as trophy fee, this is the amount the outfitter must settle for the trophy

Here is an example from the "Junta de Andalucia" so you can see how it might look.
