Ive managed to get another licence from one of my areas which i can hunt from now until the 14th Nov or from 25-30 Nov so you'll need to get here fast!! Hunting only during week days though.

American, Canadian and European Passport holders can enter Ukraine visa free. Australian can get visa on arrival. New Zealanders need to receive a visa before arrival.
Importing firearms is very difficult so I will supply a scoped Ruger American or Haenel Jaeger in 30-06.
References available if needed.
Hunters need to bring with them their Firearms and Hunting Licenses.

Trophy Export/Import

If time allows one option is for the hunter to take the boiled and cleaned Antlers/Skull with them when they depart and due to difficulties obtaining Vet certificates, leave the cape here, which I’ll have professionally tanned and dried for taxidermy and sent later.
If the hunter doesn’t want the Trophy scored I can cut one antler off at the skull which enables easier packing, then the taxidermist will re attach it or can make detachable antlers.
If the hunter doesn’t take the trophies, they will be boiled, cleaned and bleached, packed and shipped at a later date at hunter’s expense.

Hunting methods-
Hunting is carried out in different ways depending on the time of year. During the Rut (October) we walk and listen for roars then hunt individual stags on foot, much like Red deer hunting. Hunting from horse and cart is also available in certain hunting areas. It is generally flat ground but quite noisy under foot due to the autumn leaves so this can still be a challenge.
Later in the season and in the winter we will use Horse and cart or drive the tracks to locate a trophy and then hunt it or hunt from high seats etc. Season runs from 1st August to 31st January.
