[QUOTE="signature542, post: 338148, member: 14798"] Red deer are located generally in two main areas of Australia Soth Australia around Willalooka is one and their is a massive game range called watervalley. Costs per head are very reasonable compared to other hunts around the world. You can hunt reds, Fallow and Rusa on here... Best times March to July depending on what you want to hunt. Be prepared for a longer shot here and 7mm .270 type rifles are plenty for these lesser species. Open flat country and they are not sitting there loking at you as they have been hunted before. S/E Queensland is another area for reds but they dont get as big generally a 10 pointer is the best you can get. Vince ash is a top guide I can recommend from reports of my buddies. For Sambar thats another story.. I stalk and its fairly hard core in some really tough steep country and no one readily guides with any promises. I do know of guides but they are fairly expensive. I'm not sure but this is the hardest species for you to bag.. Some hunters never get one or have never shot a stag. The Victoran High Country has Alpine Natinal Parks you can hunt with proper licences and a modest game licenece fee. If Sambar is your quest March to Late September is the go.
