Where's your next hunting trip?

[Elk man]

After reading the great stories and viewing the great pics of the guys that have ventured to Africa lately, I would like to hear from anybody who has hunts planned in the future (somewhere other than your backyard) and for which game animals. I myself have two different hunts for this year...the Yukon in August (Dall sheep, Caribou and Grizzly) and Kodiak Island, Alaska in October (Kodiak bear and Sitka Blacktail deer). I have been planning and sand bagging for three years now...there's nothing like a hunting trip!! As one CDN gun nut has on his signature, "Hunting is not a matter of life or death. It is more important than that."

All I know is it's going to be off this stupid overdeveloped condo land island.

I just got back fomr South Africa, so I will be close to home for a while. Whitetails near Lac la Biche.

I had hoped to take James on a caribou hunt but after several months of emails and letters etc, I have yet to find an outfitter who will take him (unless we pay an additional $4500US for him to attend as an observer)

So I believe our next trip will be northeastern Alberta fly-in for a 5 day buffalo hunt.

Fly in Northern B.C., caribou, moose, stones sheep, ,grizz, goat, wolf. Basically anything that walks

Is the buffalo hunt typically a dead of winter hunt? I'm thinking of taking my son out next year.

Northern BC for Moose, Elk and deer.

This year it'll be a Muskox hunt on the Thelon River, right after the obligatory moose/ bison hunt around home.

 

[Workin Man]

The furthest I'm going this year is Sudbury or North Bay area for black bear. I was planning a winter caribou hunt in Quebec for early next year, but the guy I was supposed to go with had to back out. Maybe next year.

Quenesl Area for moose come september.

 

[beretta boy]

Im going with a few CGN'rs to Northern Quebec for a swamp donkey hunt...

Im starting to get anxious for the end of sept...

I'd probably plan on December. Just enough snow to get around and track.

If I were going alone, I'd go in late January on skidoo.

I'm heading up to the Yukon on September 19th. I'll be going for a trophy size bull moose and a grizz. I'll be taking my .338WM and my new beloved .375 H&H gopher gun. Other then that, being that I 999'd all my draws, I will be going in "tagless" to help my buds pack out their game and share some good hunting stories around the campfire. It's gonna be a good season, I just know it.

What do you want to hunt for?

 

[444shooter]

Probably deer would be a good start.
