The title of this Thread clearly asks us where we would hunt "if money was no object". But virtually all of the responses have been relatively mundane hunting or fishing trips that would be affordable to most any middle class hunter who didn't live paycheck to paycheck.
If money truly was no object, I'd be thinking big...
something lavish and special like some of the months long expeditions into darkest Africa done by the famous ivory hunters like Karamojo Bell or Sir Samuel Baker. Teddy Roosevelt's long African hunt also comes to mind.
I think some of the better ones I read of were in the book, "Thirty-seven Years of Big Game Shooting in the Cooch Behar, the Duars, and Assam" by the Maharajah of Cooch Behar.
This guy was obviously passionate about hunting, and spared no expense. Many of his hunts were several months in duration. He would plan and organize and they would pack-up the elephants and howdah's, trackers, porters, servants, cooks, tents, fine China, linen tablecloths, silverware, fine wines, and every conceivable amenity. They were often accompanied by their women who remained in large encampments while the Maharaja and company went into the jungle after Bengal tigers, buffalo, bears, rhinos, etc. with very expensive British double rifles and shotguns. One hunting tactic I found particularly amusing was the way they would drive game out of the underbrush and jungle by simply starting wildfires to large tracts of land.
Talk about a hunt with a large carbon footprint. You just can't do stuff like that anymore. Well, most of us anyway. Perhaps Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, or ClapperZapper could still do it.
