Mark Peterson is still in Veracruz, Mexico chasing after a free-range Axis Deer. With warmer temps still presenting challenges, Mark and his guide head to a Michon overlooking a pond full of crocodiles. With the temps getting as warm as 90 degrees, the Axis deer search for water to stay hydrated. With time running out on the final day, they catch movement in the brush and a beautiful Axis buck steps out to take a drink. Follow along!

Mark Peterson is south of the border in Veracruz, Mexico chasing the Mexican Gulf Coast Whitetail. This subspecies has the smallest range of the 31 species in the deer slam.

This is a great program that gives back to the wildlife. If you want to book any of the hunts you see on Mark's journeys, go to: https://worldwidetrophyadventures.com/

All hunting was banned in Botswana from 2014-2020. After 7 years, the restrictions were lifted and Mark Peterson is among the first to be there and hunt an Elephant.

This is a true field to table experience in a country where people depend on hunting and there's more to it than you think. This is the truth about hunting in Botswana.

Mark is in Argentina setting up on the largest Dove roost in the world, approximately 10,000,000 Doves. If you like high-volume shooting, Argentina is the place to go. You can expect to shoot 500 to 2,000 shells on any given dove shoot. There are so many doves around, the local farmers consider them pests due to the crop damage they can do. To round off the day, Mark heads to the fields to fulfill a lifelong dream of chasing Prediz.

Mark arrives in the early season so the vegetation is very thick and that can make it difficult to find a big bull in the open to go after.
