OVERSEAS SHOOT
Musk Ox Hunting - Greenland
Shoot : This is a 10% discounted package we have
negotiated on your behalf.
 We can arrange for small groups or individuals looking to
take guns up for this shoot and join a party and are delighted
to offer this opportunity.
The main hunting area is on the West Coast of Greenland, in
the Kangarlussuaq region. The area between the coast and the
ice field plays host to 4,000 to 5,000 oxen. This area has
excellent grazing and is one of the reasons for the impressive
size of beast found there. A typical trophy will be around
350kg, some 15% heavier than those from other areas of
Greenland.
There are two seasons for hunting Musk-ox and each season
has its own charm and challenges. The winter hunts take place
from early March to early April and are under taken in the
Greenland tradition using dog sleds for transportation and
tents for accommodation (cabins are often used too). This is a
real frontier experience.
Later in the year the summer hunts run from mid-July to
early August. During this period the hunting area is accessed
by helicopter but again accommodation is in tents or cabins.
The weather is more comfortable at this time of year and there
is 24-hour daylight. Whilst out in the field a radio link with
base camp is maintained in case of emergency and there is
ready access to boats or helicopters back to base should a
situation warrant it. Musk-ox licences are extremely limited
and clients should give as much notice as possible if wishing
to book a hunt.
