I'm from Calgary myself but I usually hunt for mule deer around medicine hat. I'm realativly new to big game so for other big game animals I don't have one set location yet, I mostly go out for ducks now. Ducks and geese I usually hunt around taber and brooks about this time. Early waterfowl season I hunt near Calgary usually around frank lake or somewhere else close.

Yukoner; Nothing has changed. The coffee pots are always on and the stone houses are still around. Ilive in Moosomin,work at a potash mine 27 miles north at Rocanville, on days off when not hunting or fishing I help a good buddy that has an auction service in Brandon Manitoba.

Hey 6MM in Nipawin, did you fish the Vanity this year? I heard things were pretty tough up there.
We primarily hunt whitails but this year I was lucky to kill 7 wild boar near the homestead and I am out of freezer room. I think I will carry a shotgun this fall and let mu 13 year old shoot a deer for us.
Slapshot

Checking in. Whitetails, Sharptails, Huns & Gophers around home.

Southern Ontario here. Only hunt whitetail, but I drive to PA to do it - 2 tags every year, sometimes three!

Islander here. Lots of critters to hunt but nothing bigger than BIG coyotes so we head to the mainland for deer and moose. Basically no fish but lots of game birds including ducks and giant honkers, it sure keeps the spirit alive.

Hey Slapshot!

As much as I would like to have fished the Vanity this year, I would probably get kicked out for catching the small ones!!! Seems only the little guys like my minnows.

I heard about some wild boars running around Arborfield. Is your homestead around there?

Have you been chasing any geese?

I'm in Drayton Valley Alberta, Hunt mostly deer but always have an elk tag in my pocket. Was a sheep nut when I lived in BC but find the sheep mountains here in Alberta too crowded. Getting heavy into bow hunting deer here. Am also a rifle nut, I visit the range here more than any other member and got the powder bills to prove it! Amateur benchrest shooter and 3-D archery competetor. The rest of the time I'm out with the spotting scope and binoculars or a fishing rod.

Just checking in from Winnipeg. Spend a lot of time in Sandilands, the Whiteshell and the central north region between The Pas and Thompson.
Hunt a lot of grouse- it is our longest season. Lots of moose and whitetails to hunt as well.

Regards,

Doc Sharptail

Checking in from Victoria B.C.
I live here because I have to.

I kill anything!

I love hunting, shooting, and anything outside.

...Well I like reloading too.

Jamie

I noticed that Doc Sharptails sort of forgot to mention the Hogs. lol I grew up in St. Vital Doc and hunted the Sandilands every year once I was able to be on my own. derf

Johnny Ringo here from the Saskatoon area.

I hunt gophers, rabbits, coyotes, whitetails, mule deer, elk and moose.

Quite intrigued to see a Canadian forum here.
Looking forward to coming here more often.

Hello, hunt whatever is in season that I have a tag for.

Chuck

Hey Doc. I grew up in the Peg and learned to hunt whitetail in Sandilands just south of the #1 highway at the Petrocan gas station past Richer.Also hunted moose for many years up around the Kettle Hills by Swan River down the Lenswood road at White Sand Lake.Great country but the season is too short.

No, not Arborfield, I live near Star City. About 40 pigs from a farm 6 miles west got out about a month ago. They vary from full grown sows to two week old babies. We got two of the bigger ones and 5 between 30-50lbs.
I would like to chase geese but time seems too tight. Maybe next year.
When I fish in the river I seem to be jinxed too, catch lots of small ones but the big ladies avoid me.

Just noticed this thread. I usually hang out on the cast boolit forum. Checking in from Barrie Ont. here. My main hunting is for black bear & deer once in a while. nice to see so many Canucks here. Ron.D

I live in Chilliwack, work 500km northwest of Prince George.

I hunt occasionally for grouse, quit big-game hunting 15 years ago.

I'm around also...

Still a Canuck (originally from near London, lived in Manitoba and Yellowknife among other places). I live in Sweden now.

Hey

I am from the Fort McMurray area. Originally from Petrolia, Ontario. Been living here for almost 6 years. Like to hunt yotes. I am thinking of trying to get some of us guys on here out for a coyote calling contest. Any ideas?

I live in the lower mainland,hunt mule deer in the interior and moose, either in the Peace or the Dease, mostly.

I live in south central Saskatchewan. I hunt mule deer, whitetail deer, elk (got my first this year!), moose, antelope when they are around. Oh and a few coyotes. When the mood strikes I also hunt targets at the local range. Fun to make the several bullets go through the same hole.

Fort Nelson, BC. They say that if Dawson Creek is Mile Zero of the Alaska Highway, then we're 300 miles up it. Or, the 3rd biggest city in Newfoundland, after Fort McMurray.
Just called out a bull moose this morning with my buddy who hasn't gotten his moose yet, and dammit, I thought that if I looked at it hard enough through the bino's I could make him grow that third brow tine, but to no avail...oh well. There was a lot of BIG HONKIN' bull moose taken this year around here. I know of a 57 inch (saw the pic's and it was sick indeed), a couple 55's, and a slew of others in the 48 to 54 inch range. Of course the one I shot wasn't much bigger than a large deer, at only 85 pounds a quarter, but dang, it sure isn't tough to chew. I used my new 375 Taylor on it....worked well indeed.

Hey, nice to hear other people think that too...there've been times that I've been after a meat buck, that I'd look so hard at a doe's head I could swear I could see little knobs grow between the ears!

Another one from Okotoks area, best country around!, told my wife when I moved here I'm going to live and die in this area, and when I'm gone bury me under the tree in the back yard!

I hunt Elk and Whitetail in the Waterton area.

Good day all
I live an hour west of Winnipeg in Manitoba and love to hunt whitetail deer and moose in this privince. My favourite is to go south to Montana for antelope or Wyoming for mule deer with one of my Contenders. I love to hunt with handguns so I have to go south.

This site gets better every time I visit it.

Last time (just before I went moose hunting) I found a swaging forum, and now (between deer and moose) I find a Canadian forum. Things can't get much better.

I live in Manotick Ontario, which is now a suburb of greater megalopolitan Ottawa, and do some turkey and bowhunting (deer) locally. I travel to Parry Sound District for my primary deer and moose hunts, and have been known to visit the Kapuskasing area with my crossbow during the archery moose season.

North central BC (near Long Beach ), I hunt mainly mule deer, black bears, and geese. Also moose, elk, coyotes, and ducks.

Rick Teal and I pass each other going deer hunting. He goes west, and I go east. One day I'll figure out which car is his, and we'll have some fun.

I hunt Moose, deer, and bear mostly, in Ontario.

If I could get a tag for Liberals, I'd hunt them too.

Just to let you know that there is someone in Manitoba who enjoys sending lead down range and tonight I think I'll throw some moose on the BBQ.

Hi, I live and work in the Vancouver area. Used to hunt a lot back in the late 60's and and the 70's. Got away from it for almost 20 years but took it up again a few years ago. Got in about three weeks of hunting this year and last year. Connected with a nice 4 point muley this year. On my moose hunting trip this year, didn't personaly get one but the rest of the group did fairly well so my freezer is full.

Hart

Sechelt, BC on the Sunshine Coast. I like to hunt moose and elk in northern BC and build stocks for my rifles.

Yukon257, you can get a hunting licence after you've liver here for 7 months.

London, but I haven't hunted since the NDP gave us the Outdoors Card tax. Then poverty raised its ugly head. Now, I have the money and time again but with the registration BS I don't shoot at all anymore. I'm not telling 'em what I have and I figure if they want me to do any re-registering of firearms that have been registered for 30 plus years, they should have sent me a letter saying so and it shouldn't have to pay for it. They didn't so fornicate them.

If I may, born in the tobacco region of southwest Ontario but have been in the U.S. since '59, with a year-long exception back in the early 70s. Am very tempted to go back if I can afford to retire. B.C. and Alberta seem like good prospects.

Hello fellow Canadians. I live and hunt in Gaspe, Quebec. In this area there is plentiful moose and black bear hunting. We have some whitetail, but the population was desimated in the 1980's by coyotes. We also have most of the varmints, ducks & geese and partridge ( grouse ).

I farm in Central Alberta and hunt moose locally when drawn,Elk in SW and Wcentral AB as well as Mulies in the prairies. I am able to do some tremendous WT hunting within 10 miles of my house. A part of my job is eliminating problem coyotes so I get to use a gun at work, which is all right!
I also keep the local gopher population down.
