Reviewer Comments: We have hunted with Jack Wardlaw and his sons many times. They run a great outfit. We always get to see lots of bucks and have continually been successful in our hunts with them. We hunted from stands located primarily on the ground. Thansportation is provided by 4-wheel vehicles to the hunt sites. Our site was changed each day so as not to overhunt a particular area. The Wardlaw's are a terrific family and fun to be with. A great hunt.

Reviewer Comments: The Rafter W Ranches is a great place to fill your tag on a buck of a lifetime! Their mangement couldnt be any better on their bucks on their ranch! Jack Wardlaw and his operation is the best in TX! I have been their on two different hunts both in Novemeber. I have killed awesome bucks including 8pt, 11pt, and my last an awesome 8pt scoring around 140-145 class with 15in G2'S! This is a hunt of a lifetime and I advise you to give Jack a call and you wont be dissappointed! You better not wait to long on your decision, CHOOSE Rafter W Ranches. BOTH HUNTS I HAVE SEEN AROUND 50 BUCKS AND ABOUT 20 DOES! PERFECT REASON WHY YOU SHOULD CHOOSE RAFTER W RANCHES! THERE QUOTE IS TEXAS HUNTING AT THE BEST AND THAT EXPLAINS EVERYTHING ABOUT RAFTER W RANCHES!

Alberta Hunting Information
Alberta is a large, diverse province with rolling prairies, farmland, river bottoms, Boreal forests, and large expanses of the northern Rocky Mountains. Many species of big game, waterfowl, upland game and predators inhabit Alberta. Long known for monster whitetails, Alberta also is home to big mule deer, pronghorn antelope, elk, black bear, cougar, Canada moose, and bighorn sheep. In fact, 7 of the 10 largest bighorn sheep in Boone and Crockett record book are from Alberta. In addition to big game, Alberta offers some top notch bird hunting. Serious waterfowlers know about the large flocks of ducks and geese that call Alberta home or migrate through.
Utah Hunting Information
Utah has recently been outstanding for trophy elk, but the best tags take many years to draw. Utah does have conservation tags available for purchase that allow hunters to bypass the drawing. Given the high demand for these premium tags prices can be high. In the past Utah has been a top trophy mule deer state but recently only a handful of units consistently produce B&C caliber deer.
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.
