Alberta Outfitter #1
These Alberta whitetail hunts take place in a mix of agricultural land and forest
in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. Prior to your hunt, the area will have been scouted and tree stands and ground blinds put into place. These stands and blinds
are primarily located in a forest of deciduous and coniferous trees with many cut-blocks and pipelines. You can expect to see deer in the 140-180+ class range. This outfitter averages a buck per year over 190 points. Their goal is to try and harvest bucks 150+ in size.
Whitetail Bow Hunts
They will be bowhunting whitetails August 25th to September 16th. This time of the year the bucks are in their bachelor groups and are very easy to pattern. They can take up to four hunters per week on this 2 on 1 hunt. They will hunt big
bucks over grain and alfalfa fields on private land.
Whitetail Rifle Hunts
The rifle whitetail hunts are in November when the bucks are in the rut. They hunt by calling, rattling, and stand hunting.
They hunt close to their doe herds, as the bucks will travel large areas in search of hot does. Because of the lack of
hunting pressure and the heat of rut, the bucks will move all day in search of does. They have their hunters hunt all day
so as to maximize their hunting time and increase their success rate. They use good equipment and quality stands to ensure their hunters remain warm and comfortable during their hunt.
Their Bow and Rifle hunts are six-days
Monday - Saturday, with arrival and departure on Sunday.
