Hunt for Dagestan (Eastern) Tur in Azerbaijan

Hunting Area

This hunt is conducted in the mountainous area north west of the capital Baku.

Getting There

Hunters fly into the city of Baku Azerbaijan which has connection to many European cities including Istanbul. There you will be met and assisted through customs with your firearm. You will then be transported by vehicle into the base camp of the area to be hunted.

Accommodation

There is a hut at the base camp but whilst hunting you will stay in spike camps in the mountains to avoid climbing each day. Meals will be provided by your guides.

Seasons

Open season is from May to November but the best time to hunt is in September/October when the skins are at their best.

Group Size

Hunting is normally done 1 x 1 but we can accommodate up to 4 hunters at a time.

Duration of Hunt

This is a 7 day hunt.

Hunting Methods

As with most mountain hunts hunting is by spot and stalk. There are horses to get you up to where the Tur are encountered but you will need a good level of fitness for this hunt similar to that required for a Thar/Chamois hunt in New Zealand. Please note your personal effort and physical condition could well determine the quality of the trophy you harvest on this hunt. It is a physically demanding hunt.

Summary

For those of us who love their mountain hunting it doesn’t get much better than this, hunting in spectacular country where you can spot your quarry from a huge distance then plan you stalk and take the shot at an average of 300 metres. In my book that’s what mountain hunting is all about, then when you throw in a spectacular trophy and the very reasonable price this hunt is hard to beat.
