Three groups of English sportsmen visited Slavonia between November
26th and December 7th, 2003
-
22 wild pigs were taken comprising 5 juveniles, 8 sows and 9 boar.
-
The best boar was taken by Mr C. Chamberlain of London with a measurement
of 16 cms, just 2 cms short of bronze medal standard. ( See picture below.)
-
This was our first venture into Croatia and already plans are being drawn
up for 2004.
Some changes planned for 2004:
-
The minimum stay will be 4 days with 3 days driven boar shooting.
-
All parties will be in Slavonia over a weekend period, having both a Saturday
and Sunday as shoot days.
-
The group sizes will be increased to 14 -16 guns, since it was evident
that larger groups enable much bigger drives maximising the chance of locating
more animals.
-
Since it is unlikely that all guns will come as a single group, the parties
will be combined. It is suggested that the party size be around 5-6 guns.
-
We shall make every effort to place compatible sportsmen together and will
meet each party leader here in the UK.
-
The Contra Inn in Komletinci proved acceptable to all visitors and
the hospitality and service could not be faulted.
-
Accommodation provided will no longer be further that 45 minutes from the
shoot.
-
We have made reservations for the whole of November in 2004 and we already
have some bookings.
