I'm trying to gather information on European driven hunting, and what would be required for a foreign hunter to participate in a driven hunt, say in Austria, Germany, or Hungary. Last year at the SCI show, I asked at several booths offering boar hunts in those Countries, but none of them were offering the large driven hunts most of us have seen on "Wild Boar Fever", etc.

None of them specified that training and licenses were an issue, but having done just a small bit of research online brought out several training courses and licensing requirements, mostly in the U.K. I would imagine that most training and licenses required are similar on the continent.

Can any of our European brothers guide me in what would be required to participate in a large scale driven hunt of this type?


Would a course like this one offered in the U.K. meet the requirements for hunting in Austria?

Hi Jay,

Hope you're well.

I'm headed your way in January.

Attending SHOT Show has been a long time bucket list item for me.

Finally made it happen and I'm headed to Vegas.

I know you're some distance from Vegas - but would be keen to catch up if it works out.

Have a good one.

Mark
