Eastern (Dagestan Tur) Hunt in Azerbaijan.
Travel to Azerbaijan to hunt Eastern (Dagestan) Tur with Asian Mountain Outfitters. This hunt is conducted using horses and a lot of mountain hiking at high elevations. Hunters need to be in good physical condition. The hunt is comparable to a British Columbia Mountain Goat hunt, but with no brush. Fog, snow and/or rain can occur on most hunts. This is typically a very difficult hunt and the hunters need to be experienced in mountain hunting (9,000-12,000 ft, depending on the area) and long range shooting (200-400 yards). Hunters have the option of adding a second Tur for $4,000. This Tur hunt includes 5 days of hunting plus a ½ day of driving/travel each way from Baku to the hunting area and back. If extra days are needed, they can be added for $350/day. Driven hunts can be organized for non-fit hunters, but we don't recommend hunting Tur in this manner. Each hunter has one guide and one assistant. Typical Tur sizes are 28-34 inches. Tur of 40+ inches have been taken, but animals of this size are rare. Hunt dates are July thru November. The winning bidder need to coordinate their hunt dates with one or two of our other clients or you can bring a friend who books a Tur hunt. Mid-August through early October are best times for good capes, great trophy quality and small chance for snow. Later season hunting is for the more adventuresome and it is more difficult to find a big one due to more challenging weather conditions. Early hunts have great weather (hot) but the skins are with shorter hair. If the winning bidder cannot hunt during a time one of our other clients is going, additional fees will apply (approximately $1,000) to hunt a different date as it is expensive to accommodate and host just one hunter. Also, arrangements can be made to postpone hunt until the following year (also with possible an extra cost (500 USD max) and with approval from Asian Mountain Outfitters). Hunter is responsible for the flights to and from Baku, Azerbaijan (travel is thru Istanbul Turkey via LAX, Houston, San Fran, Chicago or JFK on Turkish Airlines), Visa (completed before hunters leaves), lodging after hunt (1-2 nights in hotel at $70-150/night) and staff tips (about $1,000) and $100 for expedited boiling and trophy care so hunter can take their trophy home with them. The license, Vet Certificate and trophy fees for one Tur are included and there are no other hidden fees. If the hunter does not have an opportunity to harvest a Tur, there is a $2,000 refund or credit, which can be applied to a future hunt. A non-hunting companion is welcome for $2,500. A second Tur can be added for $4,000 USD. If hunt space is available for additional hunters, on the same hunt date, the cost is $9,000-10,500 depending on the number of hunters coming. Our outfitting partners speak English and they provides transportation to and from the hunting area, local guides, assistants, cooks, vehicles, horses (where needed), camps, food, lodging, and interpreter if they are not on the hunt (usually one English-speaking per camp), depending on the date and area being hunted. Tur are very plentiful and do not require a Cities Permit. Bryan has outfitted/guided in Canada for 17 years and 14 years in Central Asia and has personally been on over 50 Marco Polo, Ibex and Tur hunts with clients, so he is very knowledgeable regarding these types of hunts.
