Red deer stag hunting on the Isle of Jura: October 2023 Availability

15th – 21st October – Prime time red deer stag hunting – £POA extremely rare availability 

 8 stag week

Accommodation for 8 guests in a private hunting lodge fully catered (breakfast, pack lunch and dinner)  

Due to a cancellation, this prime time red deer stag hunting week has become available on the Isle of Jura. Hunting on this estate usually has a 2 year minimum wait-list, so this is a rare opportunity, not to be missed!

When hunting red deer stags you will be stalking over a prime Isle of Jura sporting estate. Jura is a hotspot for red deer – the word ‘Jura’ is a translation of the Norse word for ‘deer’. The Estate has over a thousand wild red deer and the island has over six thousand.

We have based this proposal on 2 hunters per day shooting a maximum of 8 stags over 5 – 6 days of hunting

Red deer stag hunting in general does require a reasonable degree of fitness and the hunting at this estate is classed as difficult.

You can normally expect to be out all day. Due to the difficulty of the hunting, hunters must be sufficiently fit to undertake the required physical exercise. Hunters must wear good quality walking boots and have warm waterproof clothing of a subdued colour.

Please note that it is customary to tip the stalker £65 + per stag shot.

Accommodation is in a traditional Scottish sporting lodge situated at the north end of the Isle of Jura. The house was originally built in the 1600’s and has been subsequently added to. It’s a traditional ten bedroomed hunting lodge, owned and lived in by four generations of the same family for the last hundred years.

The package is based on the provision of accommodation for 8 adults, fully catered with the services of a cook and housekeeper included.
