is this stag hunt during the roar?

Yes,beginning of September through beginning of October is the rut of red stags, when they are roaring like lions.
I hunted roebucks with Marius Merutiu two years ago in spring and can strictly recommend his organisation.
Beside successful hunting we got very nice impressions of the lovely hills and valleys of Romania and several times enjoyed the hospitality of the rural people, espescially the self-made Slibovitz of PH Gavril (best plum-brandy I ever drank!!eyesight still perfect!).

I thought that should be prime roar but wanted to be sure. I am booked in Argentina end of May. If Travel restrictions arent lifted I would consider this adventure.
I hunted with Marius 3 or 4 years ago for Robuck. Travel was difficult and luggage was lost but once we arrived in Romania Marius and his crew was great.

I did this hunt with Marius in 2019 and there were lots of roaring stags! I took a couple very nice wild boar too. My report is posted on AR. I look forward to hunting with Marius in Transylvania again.

Thank you all, for nice words. I hope to see some of you in the near future.
Red stag rut season start around 15.09 and ends 28,29.09. Maximum intensity is around 22.09. Depending on the weather condition

What kind of Covid restrictions will one encounter when arriving and departing Romania via air from the USA?

Hello Tom,
In this moment USA is not on the yellow list. That means no quarantine. But that can change every week according to the last 14 days cases.
One thing is sure: with vaccine(10 days after second dose) is free to enter, no quarantine.

Hello Marius. Sorry, the chocolate I promised to send over turned out to be too risky.

Thumbs up for Marius here as well. My big hog was lost for several days. They looked forward and right, not left for the hog, so it was missed. I'm sure that Marius learned from it. He's a genuine good guy and I recommend him. Marius deducted several hundred from the total, gave me the opportunity at a Roe buck at no charge and send me a plaque mount of the tusks at no fee.
The brandy was a fine treat (for this very light drinker) as was sitting with 3 other outfitters who via satellite, monitored the game cams for hogs.
I can see myself going back someday for a red stag or fallow deer.

Advice: If you change airlines during your flights, check the luggage pick-up to see if it is there so you can put it on the next flight you are boarding. I think (no proof) this is where the luggage glitch/delay happens.
Cluj-Napoca security personal were very difficult and made us wait several hours for the luggage, not to mention made us fill out and sign identification paperwork and we received no alert that the luggage was there, plainly visible behind a window for almost 2 hours. Hopefully you can avoid these folks.

What is the Trophy Fee for wild boar on this hunt??

As you know or maybe not, our wild boar population is under African swine fever attack. In some areas is gone and new boars are coming back slowly, in some areas is just the beginning. That’s why I didn’t mention anything about wild boar. Usually the price is based on the length of the tusks.
On this hunt I recommend to add fallow stag, is a very strong and wild population and roebuck.
The boar prices are starting from 600USD.
