Worst Hunt Ever

Dave Gray, overstates the land he hunts, he has a dump for lodging, no land, all small 25 acre to 50 acre chunks, and no more than 100-200 acres total private land, all public he tries to put you on. Lies to get you there then your stuck, Stay away, he's a Bad Liar and crook

Liar/Con Man / Thief

Beware, Con Man/ Thief, he doesn't have more than 200 acres private land, all the rest is public land, worst hunt I have ever been on, and Ive hunted all over the mid west for over 30 yrs. He should be put in jail for the lies he tells people to get them there. I gave him one star because the zero with line through it didn't work.

Outfitter Response: i am not a con man or a thief...all lies

Con Man/ Liar/Cheat

I've never meet a bigger Liar and Cheat than Dave Gray of Riverrat Outfittes, Farmersburg, Iowa. I recently been diagnosed with Cancer, but luck have it I finally drew my Iowa Deer Tag, so I narrowed it down to two and went with Dave Gray because of what he claimed he had for Leased Land. I had told him this could very well be my last hunt and that I really wanted to have a chance at some big deer on private land, He had told me he had 3000 acres of leased land, some bordering Indian Sacred Ground where there is no hunting allowed. I sent him 3 trail cams (BUT HE ONLY SENT ME 3 PICS OVER 6 MONTHS, HE'S LAZY AND IT WAS TO MUCH WORK FOR HIM TO SET UP AND RETRIEVE PICS). When I arrived I found out the truth about Dave Gray. He has less than 200 ACRES(IN 8-50 ACRE PIECES IN PEOPLES BACK YARDS), HE HAS 2,800 ACRDS OF STATE LAND HE CONSIDERS HIS 3000 ACRES OF LEASED LAND...HE DOESN'T HAVE AN ATV, HE HAS 4 TREE STANDS, HE DOESN'T HAVE AN OUTFITTERS lICENSE, DOESN'T HAVE YOU SIGN LIABILITY RELEASE (WANT A GOOD LAW SUIT,GO TO DAVE). THIS GUY NEW MY SITUATION AS FAR AS HEALTH AS WAS STILL LOW ENOUGH TO TAKE THE MONEY, LIED ABOUT THE LEASED LAND, I ASK HIM TO SHOW ME THE 3000 ACRES, HE DOESN'T REPLY. ALL THE PICS ON HIS WEBSITE OF DEER, HE DOWNLOADED FROM THE WEB. HE'S A LIAR AND CHEAT . IF YOU NEED MORE INFO CONTACT ME AT (buckhuntr01@yahoo.com).I really got taken bad by this guy, I hope i make it until next year to have a chance at a booner, ...God Bless.. and beware of Dave Gray

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.

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.
