The Ultimate High Country Challenge: 4-Day Sambar Trophy Fly Hunt
Are you ready to go where the big stags live?
If you’re tired of the beaten track and ready to test your mettle against the “Ghosts of the High Country,” this is the hunt for you. We don’t do lodge fires and luxury cabins. We do steep ridges, minimalist packs, and the raw beauty of the Victorian Alps.
Join Zane Cameron, a specialist in rugged Sambar fly hunting, for an intensive four-day expedition into the heart of public land. This isn’t just a hunt; it’s a masterclass in wilderness survival and elite stalking tactics.
The Mission: 23–30 Inch Trophy Stags
We are targeting mature, heavy-timbered Sambar stags in the 23 to 30-inch range. These old warriors live in isolated pockets where vehicle access is non-existent. By fly camping, we stay in their “living room,” positioned perfectly for that first-light glassing session or that final evening stalk.
What is Fly Camping?
Fly camping has become the gold standard for the serious Australian hunter. It involves venturing deep into remote areas with only a pack, a rifle, and a lightweight fly for shelter. It’s tough, it’s rewarding, and it’s the most effective way to find a trophy.
- Minimalist & Mobile: We carry only what we need to stay light and fast.
- Strategic Positioning: Camp exactly where the deer are, saving hours of hiking every morning.
- Elite Access: Reach isolated, less-hunted areas where big stags feel safe.
