North America
Since the discovery of the “New World” more than 500 years ago, intrepid hunters have been drawn to America by stories of vast unspoiled wilderness and the bounty of game found there. From the jungles of the Yucatan Peninsula, through the deserts of Sonora and Arizona, to the slopes of the majestic Rocky Mountains and the vast reaches of the Canadian Arctic and Alaska, the traveling hunter will discover a great variety of climates and terrain, with an abundance of diverse wildlife.
North America is home to 29 species and subspecies of big game animals and a great abundance of waterfowl, upland birds and other small game. This coupled with the pioneer spirit and rich hunting heritage, which is still very much in evidence in most regions of this continent, makes hunting in North America a rewarding experience – both for residents and foreigners alike.
Possessed of the best infrastructure in the world, North America is perhaps the easiest part of the world in which to hunt. With a reasonable number of experienced, reliable outfitters and a wide selection of accommodations, transportation options and other tourist services, hunting in North America has become easier than ever before.
BUT, in America, as elsewhere, not every offer is genuine or reliable. The staff at The Hunting Consortium Ltd. have traveled and hunted throughout North America for more than 50 years. The organizing of quality hunting trips is our full time job and we take it seriously. We have been to every area where we offer hunts and know every outfitter we represent personally. This experience is time consuming and expensive to amass, but costs our clients nothing extra. It has saved them, instead, from countless problems.
EXCLUSIVE SERVICES FOR FOREIGN HUNTERS
The Hunting Consortium has multilingual staff in Germany, Russia, as well as in the United States and can provide visiting international hunters a more thorough preparation for their hunting trip in North America than may be available from other firms. We provide invaluable “insider” information, as well as assist the foreign hunter in bridging cultural or lingual differences which may exist between themselves and the outfitter chosen to execute their hunt. We can provide information and direct consultation on hunting programs in English, German, Spanish and Russian languages. We provide the full spectrum of tourist services to travelers from abroad and frequently compose complex vacation itineraries of which a hunt forms only a small part.
We know personally every operator we recommend and we visit the hunting areas frequently to ensure that our information remains current.
Knowledge – Working long hours, full-time, in the hunting and fishing industry, experienced consultants uncover and accumulate information no amateur sportsman would be exposed to. Real consultants are not just booking agents. Knowing which areas to hunt or fish, which operator to use for a particular quest and when to go for the highest chance of success, is the essence of our craft. (Beware of part-timers, they are really just amateurs in disguise.)
Experience – A good consultant’s experience allows him to edit the multitude of offerings in the marketplace, selecting precisely the right option to suit the individual taste and desires of each client. Bob Kern and his experienced staff have hunted in more than 50 countries throughout the world, over the span of more than 50 years. Bob has personally collected over 160 species of big game (over 500 trophies). They spend much of every year visiting hunting and fishing destinations, exploring remote territories, speaking with operators, old and new, and evaluating ever-changing conditions. They are the more experienced outdoor adventure team in the world today.
