Reviewer Comments: Highly recommend this outfitter. This part of Saskatchewan has it all, quantity, quality and the chance to shoot a booner. This was my second year at TRWO and I have taken 2 very nice bucks. Two years ago (2005) was a beautiful symetrical 10 pointer, last year November 2006 I took a 151+ mainframe 12 point with a nice 4" kicker off the right main beam (13pt the redneck way). Seen no horns on the first day but the next 2 days I seen 13 different bucks and settled on the 12 pointer late on the 3rd day. Other bucks seen were a beautiful high 130" 8 pointer and a beautiful non-typical with a droptine, which I might have shot after looking at him more on video, plus many other smaller up and coming bucks. We had 5 guys in camp and everyone filled thier tag. Our week average was middle 140's.

Reviewer Comments: This was the second time I hunted with this outfitter, but this year it was a different owner. And all I have to say is that Richard did an excellent job during his first year running this outfitter. He worked hard to get every one of his hunters a good, quality whitetail deer. He and his guide Dwayne know exactly what they are doing. They told us that they wanted us to get a deer more than we wanted to get one ourselves. That is no lie. They are very hard workers and not only that, they are very good, honest people. Richard's wife Kathy did all the cooking and other camp stuff and she was just unbelieveable. She, too, is a very, very hard worker. She was non-stop in the kitchen preparing food and snacks. They are all just very good people. I considered them to be family/friends during my time with them. I plan on hunting with them again.

First PageAlberta 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.
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.
Kansas Hunting Information
Kansas is one of the top producing monster whitetail buck states in the country. It also has some excellent turkey hunting and a few big mule deer in the western part of the state. Kansas has an excellent reputation as a top notch destination for upland birds. It has excellent populations of pheasant and quail due to the vast expanse of suitable prairie and grassland type habitat.
