Tremendous Whitetail Outfitter
Our hunt was excellent in all regards. My son and I both had multiple shot opportunities and bucks each time one stand. The first morning my son passed on a 125 in 8 pt and I passed on similar deer the second day. That morning I had 9 different bucks in bow range. My son stayed after a 158 in non typical he saw on the first evening and saw it several more times before taking it the final morning. On the next to last morning I took a 140 in old buck weighing an honest 250 lb +. Saw 6 other bucks, with 2 other shooters that morning although all were not within bow range. Accomodactions are very good in a comfortable lodge (nothing fancy) with a very nice "lounge"/dining room. Meals were excellent and all you can eat. Jeff Rader and his staff go out of their way to make sure you have a great hunt and that all of your needs are met. This is a very highly recommended trophy whitetail hunt at a very reasonable price. Although we did not hunt them, Jeff's areas are infested with turkeys. We literally saw hundreds of turkeys. The only downside being when they got fired up in the morning that made so much noise you could not hear deer approaching.

New Mexico Hunting Information
New Mexico is one of the top destinations for trophy Elk and Antelope hunting. Draw odds can be tough depending on the unit but landowner tags are also available for those who don't draw. Mule Deer are plentiful but generally of average size. Only a couple of units and reservations consistently produce big muleys.
Alberta Hunting Information
Alberta is a large, diverse province with rolling prairies, farmland, river bottoms, Boreal forests, and large expanses of the northern Rocky Mountains. Many species of big game, waterfowl, upland game and predators inhabit Alberta. Long known for monster whitetails, Alberta also is home to big mule deer, pronghorn antelope, elk, black bear, cougar, Canada moose, and bighorn sheep. In fact, 7 of the 10 largest bighorn sheep in Boone and Crockett record book are from Alberta. In addition to big game, Alberta offers some top notch bird hunting. Serious waterfowlers know about the large flocks of ducks and geese that call Alberta home or migrate through.
Saskatchewan Hunting Information
Saskatchewan is home to giant whitetails and skies filled with waterfowl. Saskatchewan is located in the northern part of the central flyway and harbors huge numbers of migrating ducks and geese. Canada moose and black bear are plentiful. Hundreds of outfitters are available to provide whatever kind of hunt a guy or gal needs.
