The fallow deer is one of Ireland’s most iconic species – graceful, alert, and often underestimated. With their distinctive palmate antlers and varied coats, they are a rewarding quarry for any hunter looking for a bit of challenge in open woodland or on the edge of farmland. At Suilen Hunting Ireland, fallow deer stalking is one of our most requested experiences. It’s slow-paced, requires careful movement, and really gets you in tune with the natural rhythm of the land.
Whether you are a beginner or an experienced hunter, our guides will get you into the right position without disturbing the herd. From early morning starts to quiet afternoon ambushes, every outing is designed for the land and the season. You’ll need to read the wind, terrain, and movement, and when it all comes together, the satisfaction is real. These hunts are about more than just the shot – they are about watching, waiting, and knowing when to act.
