Where to hunt Sandgrouse
Sandgrouse are iconic desert birds found across Africa, the Middle East, and parts of Central Asia. Known for their striking plumage and remarkable ability to thrive in arid environments, these birds are a prized quarry for upland bird hunters. Some sandgrouse hunting opportunities may be found in the vast steppes of Kazakhstan and other Central Asian and Middle Eastern countries, but most are concentrated in Africa. Sandgrouse hunting is especially popular in South Africa, Namibia, and Botswana, where these birds inhabit open savannahs, semi-desert regions, and dry grasslands. The Namaqua sandgrouse and Yellow-throated sandgrouse are common species targeted in these areas.

Sandgrouse are typically included in the trophy lists of a general plains game or big game hunts, where the fees for birds usually range from negligible to nonexistent. They are sometimes offered as a part of a dedicated bird hunting package. The daily rates for such packages seldom exceed $500, depending on the outfitter and location.
