We are incredibly lucky to be able to host our 2024 club annual camp on Queensland’s Premier hunting safari property, Nyora.
Nyora is one of the most unique properties in Australia home to thousands of free range deer (red, fallow, rusa and chital), goats, pigs, camels, donkeys, buffalo and texas longhorn all wandering the property. You will have plenty of opportunity during the camp to see these animals in a free range environment as well as enjoy some time hanging out and socializing with other club members.

POST CAMP HUNTING OPPORTUNITIES:
The focus of this camp is social so there will be no hunting conducted during the camp. However, we have organised with HavaGo Australia to make the week following the camp exclusively available for club members who want to stay at Nyora and book a professionally guided hunt at a discounted rate.
Given you will already be camping at the property and supplying your own food members will only need to pay a discounted guides day rate for each day you choose to hunt (includes butchering), and the cost of any animals you shoot. You won’t need to pay for accommodation which is usually the case.
The total cost will be date rate (x number of days you hunt) + animal fee/s
Day rates:
- $200 per full day of hunting (required for trophy hunt)
- $100 per half day (suitable for meat hunts)
Animal fees:
- Meat Pig – $100 per animal
