In the next couple of hunting seasons Brian and Brad are planning a trip to the "Stans - referring to Tajikistan or Kyrgyzstan or any of the other former Soviet republics that end in "stan" - in the region of central Asia. In this episode the guys talk about the three things that cause a lot of hesitation among hunters who are considering Asia: (1) Will I get my animal back? (2) Will I be able to communicate? (3) Can I physically do it? The 'Stans feature high-altitude rugged terrain where some of the world's most exotic big-game species call home. Brian and Brad then talk about budgeting for the trip and some of the travel logistics you can expect. Check out our Rolling Bones online Adventure Catalog for more on these adventures.
