Anyone moose or mule deer hunted with this outfit? ______________________ | ||

I assume you are talking about Harry Luenberger's outfit in SE BC? Don't know if there is more than one Baldy Mt Outfitters, although Baldy Mt is a very common placename! I have never hunted with that outfitter, but I know the owner pretty well, and know the territory he hunts intimately (I was the forester managing the area for 15 years and also hunt there extensively). I can vouch for the quality of the habitat and have no qualms vouching for the owner - he's a straight shooter and a stand-up guy. If you have any specific questions, feel free to PM. Cheers, Canuck | |||

You ought to check in to his brother's place, too. Steven Leuenberger runs Ram Creek Outfitters. I was there this spring. There are tons of mulies, and last year was apparently very good for them. We saw lots of moose, and I'd love to give that a try. I've been to his camp twice, and they run a great outfit. You definitely won't be disappointed with the number and quality of game. (The moose, by the way, are Shiras moose in that region.) | |||

Steven's concession is just next door. Probably a little better for moose and about the same for deer. Both great operations. Cheers, Canuck | |||

Thanks guys thats the kind of info I'm looking for. What size moose could one expect to take in this area? ______________________ | |||

Remember, these are Shiras Moose, no matter how B&C classifies them! Anything over 40" is good, and anything over 50" is a hog. I'll classify a few from Harry's website, for you. This is a pretty average/decent bull for around here: Bulls like this are pretty common, but few get turned down as the big ones are fairly rare: I would consider this one a good bull... This one is a HOG for the Kootenays, but a few of them get shot every year it seems: Hope this helps. Cheers, Canuck | |||

I hunted with Steven Leuenberger three times. I don't go back to places where I didn't have a great hunt. Nuff sed. While there, I met his brother Harry. Harry seems like a stand up guy, just like Steven. I would have no hesitation in booking with either of them. The country is drop dead beautiful, and you will see more of a variety of game there than most places. While hunting with Steven one time, I saw mule deer, whitetail, elk, moose, black bear, grizzly, goats, and bighorn sheep. Outside of Africa, this is the highest number of different species I have seen anywhere on one trip. That has to be worth something. THE LUCKIEST HUNTER ALIVE! | |||
