Alberta
Whitetail Deer Hunting
Our
whitetail hunts have been expanded into one of the premium
trophy whitetail hunting zones in the North Peace River
Region of Alberta, With exclusive hunting rights for non-resident
hunters, over 1600 square miles of land to hunt, and limited
hunting pressure, we have incredible whitetail deer hunting
in the years to come!
Northern Alberta
Whitetail Deer Hunts
In the past this zone has only had very limited opportunity
for hunters outside of the province, producing some impressive
bucks. In 2008 there were 2 bucks taken over 190 inches,
and previous to this there was a buck taken from this zone
that scored 208 inches.
We offer archery whitetail deer hunts from late August through
mid September and rifle whitetail deer hunts from mid September
through the end of November. These whitetail hunts will
be mainly stand hunting with the use of some ground blinds.
We will use heated stands for the rifle hunts during the
rut in late October and November.
The whitetail hunting area is sparsely populated with large
farms spread throughout the zone. There are plenty of woods
around the farms. It truly is ideal habitat for deer, with
good vegetation on the hay and grain fields to feed on,
and the cover of poplars, willows and spruce bogs to live
in. The Peace River runs the full length of the zone along
with another smaller river running through part of it. Most
of the whitetail deer hunting area is surrounded by the
boreal forest, because of this we have a fairly heavy concentration
of deer coming into the zone to live. The deer do not have
to live with the hunting pressure that whitetails do in
many other parts of Alberta. They have the opportunity to
grow up and mature into large heavy trophy class bucks.
Accommodations for the archery hunts will be either a comfortable
tent camp with home cooked meals or we will stay in a motel.
Our rifle hunters will stay in a motel and we will look
after meals and lodging while you are on the hunt.
Southern Alberta Whitetail
Deer Combo Hunts
If
you are interested in a combo hunt with either a moose or
a mule deer our Southern area hunts may be what you are
looking for. This zone is in a mixed farming area with about
half of it being hay and grain land and a number of creeks
and small streams. The balance of the area is aspen, spruce,
willow and low land. This area is in the foothills of South
Central Alberta, we are about 50 miles east of the Rocky
Mountains, and it is a very scenic game rich area. We have
a healthy population of both whitetail deer and mule deer.
There are a lot of second growth alfalfa and grain fields
for the deer to feed in, most are close to bush providing
good cover for the deer. Taking a white tail buck in the
150 inch class is very possible; we have taken some into
the 160s. There was a buck taken in the high 170s
in this zone this past fall. Most of the hunting in this
zone is done on private land, we own quite a bit, and have
access on many other good parcels.
Once you have been hunting with us, you will know why our
hunters continue to return year after year. We offer excellent
whitetail deer hunting opportunities. We have professional
guides, excellent staff, comfortable accommodations and
premium whitetail hunting areas with trophy size deer! If
you are looking for quality Alberta whitetail deer hunts
