Reviewer Comments: We did another resident drop camp this year with Dan.Flew in for 14 days.Called in 7 moose on our lake and saw 3 flying. 2 bulls over 50',1 pushing 50,2 in the mid 40's and a spiker.All moose were called in to 50 yards or less.I shot the biggest bull with archery which was 55" and scored 193 gross.Will be the new #5 Pope and Young Bull for Alberta all time.Passed on all other bulls and spent 3/4 of the 14 days in the tent due to unbelievable high winds.Great hunt and we are booked again this year (5th trip ).Moose aren't around every corner but if your hard work and luck come together it can be an amazing hunt.The landcape and northern lights are simply amazing.

Reviewer Comments: Expected a whole lot more as far as seeing moose. Had one opportunity at a very small bull. Five other hunters that I talked with had similar experience. People were terrific, worked hard. Maybe just a bad year?

Reviewer Comments: 2x1 Hunt for which my friend and I purchased fishing licenses (from the outfitter) then were flown to a lake that the outfitter knew had no fish. Furthermore, both guides in camp had NEVER guided for moose before and upon questioning we learned were not able to cape a moose if the need arose. Repeated equipment failure and shortage of gasoline for boats hampered hunting along with the unwillingness of the guides to hunt in windy weather. Ultimately my friend and I ended up hunting without the guides and my friend took a small bull on the second last day of hunt. I would not recommend this outfitter to anyone. He was mostly interested in getting our money. Once that was accomplished the effort to get us an opportunity at an animal ceased. We ended up having to do it ourselves.

Reviewer Comments: If you are looking for a inexspensive drop camp for trophy moose in the Canadian Shield, Dan is the one to go with.This was our second drop camp with Dan and the weather was great for calling. My brother took a heavy horned 41 inch moose at 40 yards, and I harvested a monster 50 inch bull on the last day of our week long hunt. Bear,wolf and fishing are an added bonus on the hunt.This place will capture your heart with it's beautiful lakes,northern lights,and big moose.

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.

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.
