Mike's Outfitting Ltd. is
going to have some exciting new trophy hunts beginning in 2006.
These hunts will be for mule deer, whitetail deer, moose, elk,
black bears and wolves. This new area is in Northwestern Alberta
where we've been successfully running black bear hunts for the
past 12 years. We've also been hunting it personally with family
and friends for the last 3 fall seasons with bow and arrow and
it has been fantastic. The variety of species and trophy quality
of the animals is really amazing. I've always wanted to do some
fall big game hunts in this area. We've just never been able
to get any of the nonresident outfitter tags. Now we've got
them, and you can be one of our first hunters in this area!
Part of what makes the zone so good is that the habitat is a
perfect mix of very productive farmland, thick wooded areas
and deep river valleys.
Here are the new rifle and
bowhunts hunts you can get in on beginning in 2006:
| Mule
Deer Hunts |
The mule deer in this
area are incredible! It is a limited draw zone for resident
hunters and we have 8 out of the 10 non resident rifle
tags and the only 4 archery ones. You have a very good
chance to kill a 180 to over 200 inch deer, with a rifle
or a bow, and we can offer hunts from 6 to 9 days in length
giving you plenty of time to search for that deer of a
lifetime. The archery season is when the deer are in an
easy to pattern summer feeding mode with their antlers
in full velvet. (The antlers can be easily stripped and
stained if you prefer the hard horned look.) You may also
be able to add a moose or a whitetail deer tag to your
archery mule deer hunt. The moose tag would be an additional
$1000 and the whitetail would $500. There are 4 whitetail
deer tags and only one moose tag available to the 4 bowhunters.
In the rifle season you have your choice of hunting the
deer in their bachelor groups in September or in the rut
in November. Either time is very good.

| Whitetail
Deer Hunts |
Alberta is well known
for it's huge whitetails and this area is one of the best.
The bucks here are known for their massive high scoring
racks. You have a fantastic chance to take an over 150
gross score buck with a very real chance to get a huge
170 plus deer. You get to hunt these big bucks throughout
the peak of the rut. There are large sections of bush
that back right up to the farm fields. This is where the
giant whitetails can hide out and grow to maturity. You
will be hunting out of stands set on the edges of the
fields where the does congregate or up to several miles
back in the woods. All the stand locations will have been
heavily scouted before your arrival. The hunts can be
done for up to 9 days and can be combined with a moose
or mule deer hunt.

| Moose
Hunts |
The number of moose in
this zone is unbelievable and all the good habitat areas
are relatively easy to access. This makes the hunt not
very physically demanding. The trophy quality has also
been getting better and better since it was recently put
on a limited draw for resident hunters. These moose are
categorized by the record keeping organizations as Canadian
moose and most of the big bulls are in the 40 to 50 inch
range. Some 50 plus inch bulls have also been seen and
taken in the last 2 years. Bowhunters will get the first
chance each season at the best bulls hunting them in the
pre-rut in August and September. The hunting methods will
be a mix of calling, spot and stalk and tree stand hunting
over waterholes and natural salt licks. The rifle hunts
will be conducted in what is referred to as the late season
hunt. It is in November after the moose rut. At this time
of year the bulls group up and feed together in the farm
fields. This makes for a physically easy hunt where you
will be driving around looking over as many bulls as possible.
You may see up to 30 or 40 moose per day in your search
for the biggest bull possible. You can also do some walking
and four-wheeler driving to get in to some of the non-truck
accessible areas.

| Elk
Hunts |
There is quite a large
population of elk in the area and the best part is that
you get the rare opportunity to hunt them in the exciting
calling season with a rifle or bow. The elk spend most
of their time in the thick bush areas where there are
small grassy clearings and cutlines for them to feed on.
This is where you would spend most of your time trying
to ambush the elk or call them in to you. Some of the
hunting is also done on the adjacent farm fields. With
a bow or a rifle you will have an excellent chance to
kill a 5 or 6 point bull scoring 250 to just over 300.
Bowhunting the elk in the early season over waterholes
and natural salt licks is also a good way to ambush a
nice bull.

| Wolf
Hunts |
| There is a large, healthy
population of wolves in this zone because the big game
numbers are so high. You can add a wolf license to any
of your hunts for just $25 and you may get a chance at
one of these elusive animals. We may also be offering
baited winter wolf hunts in the future. |
