Exotic Game Hunting Ranches & Preserves

South Africa’s Inyati Hunts offers a true Hunting Safari for many big game and plains game, such as Water Buffalo, Kudu, Wildebeest, Impala and more.

Exotic Game Hunts offer hunters many action-packed options and benefits that are not available in more traditional types of hunts. First, many Exotic Game Ranches offer year round hunts. It is a huge benefit to not be bound by strict season dates and bag limits. Next is the ability to hunt with the weapon of your choice. Most ranches allow guests to hunt with a rifle, muzzleloader, traditional archery, cross bow, handgun – whatever you want. Another benefit is the variety of game. There are unlimited species available at many Exotic Game Hunting Preserves, including several species of deer, rams, goats, sheep, hogs and even African game. Lastly, is the time factor. Traveling to distant lands in hopes of taking a free-range trophy animal can take an extensive amount of time and money. Most Exotic hunting ranches can ensure access to a variety of game and take only a few days to achieve success. And hunters are made aware of the cost during the hunt and can budget to suit their needs. Combo hunts are always available at Exotic Game Ranches.

Don’t think because the hunt is on a preserve that it won’t be challenging! The size of the property, the terrain and the game being hunted all contribute to that factor. Many preserves include miles of property and a huge variety of terrain including hills, bottoms, swamps, rolling meadows, forest, thickets and mountains.

World Class Outdoors features a great number of Exotic Game Ranches across North America, and many offer hunts year round. A game preserve typically refers to a large piece of property that has been strictly managed for game quality and is secured with a high fence. The fence is used to keep the superior genetics of the herd pure, to protect against uninvited hunters, to keep the animals safe from disease, to keep dogs and predators off the property and to manage the game.
