Huge Disappointment
Doug Gattis had a lease to 160 acres that had a ranch, construction garage, motorcycle riders, target shooters and two tree stands he baits. His ATVs were broke, so I had to return home to get mine to access "good" adjacent BLM land, where moutain bike riders and their dogs went through the stand set up. He doesn't quite know how to use his game cameras as well. He does have lots of "old stories" and mounts in his house to impress you. Do not expect to spot and stalk, still hunt, a drive/push hunt, or any alternative except to be driven to a stand each day, and for him to scratch his head and tell you he has never seen anything like this before. I saw some does, and a few yearling bucks which were marginally legal in seven days of ideal rut conditions. Accommodations were average, food sub par, but I could care less about either of those things. I had applied for eight years before receiving this coveted Blacktail tag and saved two years for a guide. I expect a guide to work and prepare as hard as I do, but this is not the case with Doug Gattis and Southern Oregon Gamebusters. Because Doug would not provide me a contract after I sent a deposit, I had no recourse when I filed a complaint with the Oregon Marine Board. He said he knew I was disappointed in the hunt when I left. I wonder why?

Wyoming Hunting Information
Wyoming is a great state for hunters! It offers a wide variety of good big game, turkey, small game, upland and predator hunting.
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.
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.
