Hunters roost and Lodge-John Bostic
First of all, this was my first trip to Illinois. There was serveral things that really bothered me, but the one thing that really stood out was the fact that John and two of his guides were hunting when we were. One evening John came in and was really upset, he stated that he had a shot opportunity at a 160 class deer but had a misfire. One of the hunters that i was hunting with was on his third hunt with John and i could not understand why he was not put in a position to harvest such an trophy. They should have been focused on paid clients, but instead were trying to make a name for themselves.

Reviewer Comments: Had bad weather and still saw a lot of deer. I killed a nice buck and then filled my doe tag. John has lived and hunted in the area his whole life and is very knowledgeable about the deer and works very hard to give you a chance at the buck of a lifetime. It's a hands on operation and John and his wife Judy treat you like family and you won't eat better anywhere. I plan on going back as long as they will have me.

Yukon Territory Hunting Information
The Yukon Territory is a legendary hunting destination. Hunters from all over the world travel to the Yukon for wilderness adventure hunting at its finest. This rugged, remote and beautiful province is nearly untouched by man. It is similar in size to the state of California but with a population of only about 30,000 residents. The Yukon is a vast, pristine wilderness that holds a tremendous variety of trophy game species. You should be in excellent physical condition to maximize your success and to enjoy the Yukon experience.
Oregon Hunting Information
Oregon is not known to be a trophy big game producing state. That said they do have good quantities of animals such as Elk.
Manitoba Hunting Information
Manitoba is known as a top destination for avid waterfowl hunters. Huge flocks of ducks and geese can be found from the Arctic coast of Hudson Bay to the prairie potholes on the southern border of this Canadian province. There is no legal requirement for non-resident waterfowl hunters to use a guide, but many are available and a high percentage of non-Canadian hunters utilize them. In addition black bear, Canada moose and whitetails are hunted throughout the province.
