I'm just getting warmed up!
Hmm, it could be that Cam would go that far in search of a good deal. I will add it to my lines of thought in this thread.
Is that a new Sasquatch thread? Or have I been missing out on a continuing thread?

Rumours of my demise, sinking ferries and piss taking with an empty thread are false.
I flew out to Saskatoon short notice Friday as my brother had a day to fill his whitetail tag. So this morning, up at 6:00am and we were on the road heading towards Hanley at 7:00am Rolled into the town around first light.
In the space of 4 hours, we saw 15 whitetails (mixed), two muley does, a monster muley buck (biggest deer I have ever seen), two owls, two big ass hares and one coyote (who survived the encounter). Bro wanted a doe or a spiker and the spiker we caught up with promptly put a good 500 meters between us and him. We headed up to the bush where he disappeared and I gamely beat the push for the lord of the manor. Did manage to push spiker out but milord didnot get a chance to shoot.
So we drove around for another couple hours spotting deer mostly too far away or on the other side of the South Saskatchewan River. But, at 12:30ish we caught up with a doe and buck pair. The buck booked it, the doe stayed and the hunt was over.
Now, this is my first experience hunting in Saskatchewan and it was fun but wow - too easy! You drive around in your truck, all nice and warm, looking into dead flat fields with 5kms visibility, choose your target and home for tea. No sitting in a blind getting pissed on, or pushing through deadfall with fickle little deer midgets darting around you in the bush. You prairie guys are lucky.
