Invitation to you all

[bowhunterportugal]

Hi gang,

I must say, I'm so happy with the fact I found this forum and got the privilege to ear and exchange experiences with some of you members that I would like to let the tradgang community know that, if any of you comes to Portugal, whatever the  reason may be, I would like to be notice to meat you. It is also very likely to be possible to arrange a hunt, as I own a farm where I hunt.

But the most important thing would be to shake hands with a tradgang member, to see and learn from him in real time, that would be awesome...  

[Matty]

Very nice of you to make that statement and create such a nice gesture as an invite!  There are many incredible people on this forum. But I think you may have opened the flood gates to have visitors from the states to hunt a new place.
I'm looking at airfare right now!!

Come'on Matty, you can be the first. Just be sure to have some patience to teach me a lot    

[BigBucksnTrucks]

That's a great invitation!! I lived out that way for a couple years, in the Azore islands, absolutely beautiful.

[Tsalt]

Diogo... that is really kind of you.   Wish I had the money and time... I would be there in a heartbeat.  Matty is right... you might have just started a guiding business!    

[Russ Clagett]

What a super invitation! What animals do you hunt on your farm in Portugal?

Welcome aboard....

[bowhunterportugal]

Azores are really beautiful islands. You've been in Terceira Island, in the air base?

Russ, in my farm I hunt all kind of small game and european wildboar. I'm trying to introduce Fallow deer since they existed here before 1974 revolution. I have presently 3 bucks and 2 does in the wild. They are what's left by the poltures (did I write it right?)!

So, wild boar, althoug in free range, have the necessary conditions to stay here and be hunted. We are allowed to hunt all year during full moon nights. 8 nights before full moon till the night after. We are allowed to hunt all year in day light by stalking them but it's virtually impossible, so we hunt at night mostly standing and waiting with food stands. Lot's of adrenalin. I love hunting them by stalking at night but that's becaus I have a farm where I can spend hours chacing them. Most my friends and clients don't have the pacience to do that! In small game we have rabits, hare's, fox, mangust, partridge, wood pigeon, quail, some pheasant, snipe, woodcok and duck's, each one with a hunting season. I think I didn't forget any!

Wow that's nice of you!  

[Bonebuster]

Traditional bowhunting at it`s best.

Worldwide SPIRIT...a campfire for all nations!

             

[Hummer3T]

If ever that way I will stop to say high and maybe take you up on the invite to hunt also, some day maybe.  Sound like a great place that you own and some cool game and oportunities

[Benner]

I was there in 2009 for a vacation. What a great country. I hope to see it again someday. Thanks for the generous offer.

[Sean B]

Thats a tempting offer!!!  Very kind of you.  You're a good man!

[bowhunterportugal]

Saskatchewan, that must be beautifull to hunt also! So it seems on tv, at least.

[bartcanoe]

A very generous offer.  I've been to the Azores also, but I always wanted to visit mainland Portugal.

[Sean B]

Saskatchewan is unbeleivable!!  I've been there twice, once for deer and once for waterfowl.  Its a sprtsmans paridise, and the people are the friendlest I've ever met!

[Mike Vines]

Thank you for the generous offer, and be careful, there are a few of us who will jump at the opportunity (breaking out the map right now to see what is all around there).  If you ever have the desire to come to Michigan, The offer is there for you as well (except I don't own a farm, hence the reason I want to go west to hunt while my body can still do it).

[bowhunterportugal]

I've been in Georgia last year. My sister lives there. Sadly I didn't knew TG by that time...

[joe ashton]

 do you realize that you just invited 25,000 bow hunters over for dinner.. You better get a bigger BBQ.

[bowhunterportugal]

You're all welcome...
