Desert Safaris has access to some of the finest
ranches in Sonora Mexico. These areas have been consistently
producing some of the largest antlered Mule Deer to be found in
North America without exception.
Travel to the famed Sonoran Desert South of
Arizona where your hunt will be conducted per one on one guide
service with a daily personal driver. These hunts are safari-style
in elevated high-racks, covering tens-of- thousands of acres of
desert flats |
|
 |
| on numerous ranches
located in the vicinity of Hermosillo, Mexico.
The deer numbers in these areas are not particularly high, yet
the trophy quality is unsurpassed for giant bucks. Clients can
expect to see 4 to 10 bucks daily with antler spreads on
trophies ranging from 28” to 34” and occasionally some will
exceed the 34” + mark. Typical scores will range from 175 to 220
+ B&C with a reasonable expectation being a 180 B&C Gross
animal, with 75% success rates. Temperatures will range from 30F
to 90F on this trip.

We are one of the few operations in
Mexico that charges a hunt fee for our services and a
trophy fee if successful. This encourages hunters to be
more selective and take a mature buck at their
discretion. Competent guides and a vast knowledge of the
area, compiled with game habits will be utilized to
ensure a successful and enjoyable experience a field.
You will have the luxury of hunting the end of the
pre-rut and full rut, which will dramatically increase
your odds for a high scoring deer.
You will fly to Phoenix and on to Hermosillo, Mexico
where |
|
|
you will be met by a
representative to clear customs with your firearm and
then transported to camp. Ranches are within 1-2
hours driving time from Hermosillo Airport depending on
which particular property you will be hunting.
|
The people in Mexico are extremely
friendly and very helpful with a quick, hassle free
entrance into the country. The accommodations
will be
located on or near the property you will be hunting and
consists of hot water, kitchen, generator or electricity
and
comfortable beds. The lodging is rustic, yet clean.
We will host four camps annually with only four hunters
per hunt. This is so
we may provide a more personalized and attentive trip
for each and every client and ensure the highest success
rates possible. |

2007 season hunt facts
This season
we had below average rainfall yet our numbers and fawn crops sustained
well with hunters reporting above average numbers and good to average
antler growth. We hosted 21 hunters in Sonora this season with 15 clients
harvesting bucks and 2 wounded that were unrecoverable. 2 of our deer
gross scored over 190 BC and 1 harvested grossed over 210 BC. The majority
of the remaining deer that were taken scored between 175-185 BC with 28”
to 30” spreads. We are adding more ranches to our 8 currently leased and
anticipate another successful season in 2008.
