Red Stag Hunting – The Pinnacle of the Hunting Season
Red stag hunting is one of the most prestigious and eagerly awaited hunts in Poland. At the heart of this experience lies the rut – the autumn mating season during which mighty stags clash antlers and roar across the forest in competition for hinds, often oblivious to human presence. It’s a time when hunters witness the true monarch of the woods in all his glory.
The Red Stag – Pride of Polish Forests
The red deer (Cervus elaphus) is the largest member of the Cervidae family in Poland. Mature stags can weigh up to 250 kg (550 lbs) and grow majestic antlers that – depending on age, genetics, and habitat – often reach medal-class standards (bronze, silver, or gold).
Hunting Season for Red Stags
| Species / Type | Hunting Period |
|---|---|
| Red deer (stag) | August 21 – February 28 |
September is the prime time – the peak of the rut, when stags are most active and easiest to locate thanks to their resonant bellowing.
Hunting Methods
Stalking – the most thrilling and demanding form, requiring tracking skills, patience, and knowledge of animal behavior
Stand hunting (from high seats) – ideal during the rut when stags roam clearings and forest edges
Calling – using professional red stag calls to lure mature bulls during the rut
Winter hunting – outside the rutting season, relying on understanding deer wintering grounds
