Medical:
Insurance is essential. Please check that your policy covers safari/ adventure activities and travel to foreign destinations. (It is advisable to bring a copy of your policy with you.) Please ensure that you bring enough personal medication to last the entire trip.
What to Bring
Basically medium clothing should be brought for hunting during the day. You will need 4 or 5 sets of shirts, trousers/shorts, socks and underwear, TWO pair of broken –in walking shoes, a hat or cap, a warm sweater/jacket and a windbreaker. The clothing should be neutral bush colors, i.e. drab green or dark khaki commercial camouflage is useful.
Other helpful items are –gloves, hunting knife, sunglasses, light binoculars, good camera and a supply of film, flashlight, sunscreen and casual shoes.
It is suggested that cameras be placed in padded cases before putting them into your carrying bag. If cases are dust proof they will be useful for camera transportation in the field. Good film is available in most shops.
Bag limits-there are strict hunting quota systems in Iran. Hunters must advise us, well in advance, as to which animals in order of priority they wish to hunt, so that the necessary licenses can be obtained.
Rifle and Ammo Requirements:
The best rifle is one you are comfortable with. The .243 is the minimum legal caliber for Iranian game. 30-06,.270, and .308 are common calibers with local hunters. If very high velocity rifles are to be used, we recommend that the medium weight partition bullets be used. The 264 Winchester mag, 270 weather by mag, 7MM rem mag,7 mm weather by mag, 8 MM-x 68S and similar high velocity flat shooting calibers are highly recommended.
Liability:
Any safari activity is potentially hazardous. It is essential that all lawful directions and advice of the professional hunters be followed at all time. Iran Jasmin or their agents, accept No responsibility for any illness, accident or loss whatsoever incurred in the course of the safari, or from any expenses arising from such illness, accident or loss.
