Reviewer Comments: What more can I say than 5 1/2 days to hunt and never saw a shooter in Iowa the second week of Nov. and saw less than 20 deer all week. Ernie has great farms but will put return hunters in the best places over first time hunters especially if they come in a group.really doesn't have guides, just one person that helps out on occasion. If you do go bring the following, pull up ropes, climber, bow holders, saw, towels and you will have to field dress and skin your own deer.

Reviewer Comments: how can an outfitter hunt on my dollar bill? well they did!!!! they over booked, somewhat rude to a few hunters, didn't move stands when asked to, plumbing sucked, as well as the food. great lands and I'm sure there are big bucks around. treestands where placed in good places, but placed in trees at over 30', leaning either right/left, or into the trees. this outfitter just sucked. came to find out a week after my hunt that he had gotten in trouble for helping 2 of his hunters poaching deer few years before our hunt

Reviewer Comments: Three of us hunted the second week of November 2006. The farms they have are gorgeous, we saw more deer then we thought. I saw 2 shooters, my friend saw 1, and the last friend saw none. The stands are placed in great locations, but the stands are placed in dangerous positions, and really high. There is no way of finding the stands in the dark. The food was poor, as are the accomodations, roaches, and mice found, one bathroom, with a clogged toilet. This outfitter over booked having over 11 hunters in camp with 2 guides, both the owner and his guide hunted while we where in camp. The 3 of us felt the outfitter didn't go out of his way for us like he said he would, we really felt like we where the outcasts. It was too bad it happen, I would of gave a deposit for a future hunt......Live and learn

Reviewer Comments: Hunted with Ernie 1st week of November. The weather was a bit warm and a injury kept me from putting the time in on stand I wanted to. I did see a few shooters and one monster in the booner class. Overall the properties are great, good trophy area in southeast Iowa. The lodge was a converted garage, nothing fancy but for the price of the hunt you can't beat it and the meals were home cooked. I would recommend anyone looking for a Iowa outfitter at a fair price to contact Ernie at Steel creek outfitters, he is a great honest outfitter.

Manitoba Hunting Information
Manitoba is known as a top destination for avid waterfowl hunters. Huge flocks of ducks and geese can be found from the Arctic coast of Hudson Bay to the prairie potholes on the southern border of this Canadian province. There is no legal requirement for non-resident waterfowl hunters to use a guide, but many are available and a high percentage of non-Canadian hunters utilize them. In addition black bear, Canada moose and whitetails are hunted throughout the province.
Ontario Hunting Information
Ontario is often considered a sportsman's paradise. This large province contains huge sections of wilderness, filled with thousands of lakes that provide excellent habitat for Canada moose and black bear. Excellent fishing for walleye, northern pike, muskie, smallmouth bass and other species can often be combined with a hunt. From spike camps to 5-star lodges, there are lodges, guides and outfitters for every adventure and every taste.
Arizona Hunting Information
Arizona has lots of trophy big game but is probably best known for its trophy elk and mule deer. This partially due to the limited number of tags available.
