[QUOTE="orifdoc, post: 2019549, member: 115070"] If you have connections with an outfitter in Scotland, I would strongly consider trading hunts with an outfitter here in the US. Some of those guys would be excited to consider a hunt in the UK. Hound hunting is pretty exciting, but you better be in shape to keep up with a pack of dogs moving uphill at 9000' elevation. I've taken rifles to Africa, but the last couple of trips I've just used theirs. They take care of them, they shoot well, and it greatly simplifies the travel. Backcountry hunting in Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado, or Montana would be a completely different world and it's pretty fun to experience. A guided pronghorn hunt in Wyoming has a very high success rate and would give you a unique trophy that would start many conversations at home. If you time it right, you could possibly do a combo hunt with elk or mule deer. States might vary, but a foreign national should be able to hunt the same as any other non-resident. One potential fly in the ointment is proof of a hunter safety course. The actual educational value of taking such a course is debatable for someone who has been hunting for a lifetime, but many states simply will not issue a license or tag without it. You might need to do some checking on that. [/QUOTE]
