The world’s best duck hunting and wingshooting adventures

You didn’t arrive to GetDucks.com by accident. You are here because you are a serious duck hunter. You want the hunt of a lifetime. And you know that it’s always duck season…somewhere.

You’ve come to the right place.  Now 20 years in business, we specialize in worldwide waterfowl hunting and wingshooting.  It’s not only what we do – it’s all we do.   We don’t sidetrack ourselves with big game and fishing (but both are available at many destinations). We’ve personally hunted each destination many times. GetDucks reputation is backed by 20-plus years delivering real duck hunts for real duck hunters. Solo hunters also welcomed—See worldwide duck hunts hosted by Ramsey Russell (Updated).


*NEW* GetDucks Comprehensive Outdoor Trip Protection powered by Global Rescue. To protect your hunt-of-a-lifetime, we now offer superior travel protection at the most competitive rates available. Added to each GetDucks reservation, it is available to anyone traveling anywhere.

 

** Special Conservation Feature **  BATTLEGROUND AUSTRALIA Documentary, a collaborative project among US and Australian hunters, scientists and conservationists to collect invaluable scientific data. Special thanks to Safari Club International, Field and Game Australia and others. This project is extremely important because in the absence of meaningful science, Australia anti-hunters threaten a continuation of sustainable hunting.
