BOWHUNTING FOR MOOSE OR ELK
MOOSE HUNTING
We specialize in
Bowhunting trophy moose. Our
primary hunting area allows Bowhunting only during the rut, has some of the
highest densities of moose in Alberta, and has an excellent bull to cow ratio.
Calling moose is incredibly exciting and our most productive method of getting
trophy bulls into bow range. Other common methods we use include hunting natural
mineral licks, or heavily used feeding areas.
ELK
Our new area also has a great abundance of
other big game species including Elk. We bugle in these bulls during the rut or
setup on the fringe of agricultural feeding areas and hunt from tree stands.
WHITETAIL
Alberta is famous for its great deer hunting
and its giant trophy bucks. Alberta whitetails are the most predictable and
easiest to bow hunt in September. We hunt their travel routes in the morning and
evening as these bucks move to and from bedding areas to feed in the lush farm
fields.
GAME BIRDS
Both ruff grouse and spruce grouse are very
plentiful and are a lot of fun to hunt in the midday period whether bow or rifle
hunting. Licensing for game birds is optional.
WOLF
A healthy wolf population exists in our area,
and a wolf/coyote license is recommended for every hunter. Wolves are very wary
and don't offer hunters a second chance, but the opportunity is there for the
vigilant hunter. Bow hunters have had shooting opportunities every
year.
FISHING
Arctic grayling and rainbow trout are abundant
in the creeks as are the northern pike in the many lakes. As some of our moose
calling is done from canoes, a little fishing at midday can be a relaxing break
that the wearied hunter needs.
BAG LIMIT
An additional two species licenses can be purchased
optionally, as can a bird game and wolf licenses that we highly
recommend.
LOCATION
The primary hunting area located a short 2
hours drive west of the Edmonton International airport, near the town of Edson
in the beautiful foothills, agricultural fringe area of west central Alberta.
Our hunting areas have some of the highest moose densities in the province.
Other advantages of this new area include: easier / more cost effective travel
arrangements for our hunters, excellent access, controlled resident numbers and
Bowhunting only during the rut. We're now hunting in the best area in Alberta
for moose and an area that has excellent elk, whitetail and mule deer numbers.
This move helps us to expand our line of high quality reasonably priced hunts
that we offer to all hunters.
