“Most of our hunting is done spot and stalk for both Bow hunting and Rifle.
Due to large areas of most of our hunting concessions it is often necessary to drive to our hunting areas and travel around them in our fully equipped 4WD vehicles. If an animal of interest is spotted from the vehicle, we will find a suitable place to leave the vehicle some distance away and take up the stalk on foot, we like to get the hunter up as close as possible. Hotspur Lodge also has some ground blinds if you would like to make use of them during your hunt. Female hunters, wives and any non- hunting partners are most welcome at Australian Outfitters, if you have any disabilities or special needs just let us know so we can tailor a hunt to suit your particular needs.”
