Damn Doc, you sure did open up Pandoras box this time!Anyway, I feel bad about your hunt because I know how it feels to look forward to a hunt in Alberta for a whole year. It's differant than opening day in our respective states, it's moreintense. Just for the record, these replies are something else.[:@]
In closing, I just want to say that I had, by far, the best hunting trip of my lifewith far less than desireable conditions but made the most of
the situation. I delt with half mile walks in a foot of snow with my stand and delt with the cold all day and didn't see alot of deer but guess what, I can't wait till next Nov. to do it all again, exceptI'll be with another guide who's also one of the best in the Zone.
Yes, these hunts are around 4200.00 plus airfare and you do have to have a guide or hostif your not a resident of Canada. The beautiful thing is tags are a sure thing!Doc, again, sorry to hear of your poor hunt.[&o]
