Great Bird Hunt
Just returned from a fantastic 2 day hunt with SDHS. Started each day with waterfowl and finished with Pheasant. Took a limit on pheasant each day. Duck hunting was slower as the wind and weather did not cooperate. Thousands of ducks in the area. They just wouldnt fly over us. The hunters just before us and just after us got their limit on Ducks. Certainly not the outfitters fault my group didnt kill out on waterfowl. Accomodations were fantastic. The lodge is awsome and the cooks are 5 star. Mike Moody runs a clean efficient operation with no stone unturned. Everything was exactly as advertised. Game processing was flawless and the working dogs were amazing. cant wait to go back!

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.
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.
Illinois Hunting Information
Illinois is widely known as a top trophy whitetail destination. Illinois also has some great waterfowl hunting, especially in southern portions of the state.
