Fraudulent outfitter
This review is to inform anyone contemplating doing business with Alabama Trophy Whitetails (Pete Kemmsies) of my experience. In November of 2010 a friend asked me if I wanted to hunt at Alabama Trophy whitetails with him in January of 2011. My friend said he had met Pete at a show in Lakeland, FL and he seemed like a pretty good guy. I said yes and contacted Pete Kemmsies of Alabama Trophy whitetails and sent him a deposit by check for $425. As January rolled around one of our party found some negative reviews on line, we contacted Pete and he said ”You couldn’t satisfy everyone.” We believed him and decided to continue with our hunt. Two days (Jan 12) before we were to leave for Alabama Pete Kemmsies called and canceled the hunt, saying that it had been a bad year and felt as though if we didn’t have a good hunt no one would be happy. At this time Pete stated that he would return our deposits within a week. To make a long story shorter it is now April 14, 2011 and we have yet to receive our deposit back. Pete has made a multitude of promises and excuses but no results. We have been very patient and even offered a quasi payment plan with no results. I feel as though I have been lied to and robbed of my hard earned money while trying to be above board by an unscrupulous business person. I would warn anyone thinking of doing business with Alabama Trophy Whitetails or anything Pete Kemmsies has to do with (it appears that he also runs a business called Florida Slam outfitters) to be very careful and learn from our loss. I should have done my home work, there are several negative reviews and I should have heeded their advice. Pete has now shutdown "Alabama Trophy Whitetails" and "Florida Slam outfitter: sites and has opened a couple more. "South Carolina Hunts" and "Swamp Creek club" which was the land tha was "Alabama Trophy Whitetails" property. Buyer beware with this outfitter I can be contacted at newtonfishman@aol.com

Ontario Hunting Information
Ontario is often considered a sportsman's paradise. This large province contains huge sections of wilderness, filled with thousands of lakes that provide excellent habitat for Canada moose and black bear. Excellent fishing for walleye, northern pike, muskie, smallmouth bass and other species can often be combined with a hunt. From spike camps to 5-star lodges, there are lodges, guides and outfitters for every adventure and every taste.
British Columbia Hunting Information
British Columbia is an excellent hunting destination that offers a wide variety of game species. Vast wilderness areas and pristine coastlines provide world class adventure hunting for those seeking that trip of a lifetime. BC is arguably best known for big coastal black bears, Canada moose, grizzly bear, mountain lion, Dall sheep and Stone sheep. Hunters can book a hunt with an outfitter and avoid the license drawing process common in most U.S. states.
Iowa Hunting Information
Iowa is one of the best Midwestern states for monster whitetail bucks. Non-residents must apply for a tag in their annual drawing. Archery tags are the most sought after and depending on what units you apply for generally take 2-4 years to draw.
