If you had a choice............
 
If you had a choice to go on any hunting trip out there, money of no concern. What would it be? I would choose to hunt Greater Kudu in Africa followed very closely with Elk. Curious as to what my fellow bowhunters would chose.

If money was no concern I'd be goin on lots of trips, Alaskan moose, brown bear, red stag, limited entry elk, and lets not forget my dream, the sheep slam, dall, bighorn, and stone. All with the bow of course. :DI better start makin some money I guess huh. WCL

Wow could you imagine how agonizing the final decsion would truly be if someone said to you........"You pick it and I'll pay for it" [:-]

It would take me a season to decide I think.

Elk in a money unit in New Mexico?
Top of theline Caribou hunt in Canada?
Maybe Red Stag in New Zealand?
Africa?
Alaska?

Holy crap that would be tough.

Is this invisible person also paying for taxidermy? :D

I would choose to go to New Zealand and never come back.

Montana would probably be a near second.

1shotkill1993 12-04-2008 07:09 PM

RE: If you had a choice............
 
It would either be hunting huge elk up close, or bear hunting in Alaska, Canada. I would love to go on both!

BowHuntingFool 12-04-2008 07:12 PM

RE: If you had a choice............
 
Since I paid for my first hunting trip in Africa I'll let someone else pay for the next one!!!!!!! :) I would love to go back to Namibia!

Yukon moose hunt with Jim Shockey.

Montana- to hunt anything and everything there.

Brown Bear hunting in Alaska.

Easily x2...no comparison.



Out of Continent?

Me too...except the come back part. NZ tops any out of country hunt on my list, besides possibly a Water Buffalo hunt in Australia.

RE: If you had a choice............
 
Sheep slam for me...my ultimate hunting fantasy. I do have a Yukon moose trip scheduled next year and could not be happier for now.

Id wanna hunt Elk in New Mexico

buttonbuckmaster 12-04-2008 07:36 PM

RE: If you had a choice............
 
Hunt Muleys in Colorado or Utah.

Of course, nothing beats a good IL snipe hunt.:)

magicman54494 12-04-2008 07:36 PM

RE: If you had a choice............
 
It would be a tough choice. Trophy elk, griz, a monster alaskan moose, would all make my list. The african animals are cool but to be honest I don't know enough about them to get me really excited. I would be over there asking "what is that?" "is it a big one?" If I shot the world record _______ , I wouldn't get excited because I wouldn't even know I did it. BTW how do they score a giraffe?

RE: If you had a choice............
 
Brown Bear - Alaska, and I would just stay there instead of coming back...

Elk or Muley or Whitetail

Tell the truth Ed. We all know you would take the week long hunt at the playboy mansion with unlimited doe tags![8D]

gregrn43 12-04-2008 07:51 PM

RE: If you had a choice............
 
Money no concern hmmmmmmmm. I think I would just hunt everything that I could.

RE: If you had a choice............
 
Another vote for the 300 lb Canadian whitetail hunt. With the dark chocolate horns. Big horns. And since I'm from Iowa, let's bump it up to a 330 lb Canadian whitetail!

Maybe Red Stag in New Zealand?


Matt,
You pretty much nailed it for me with these 3!!!!!

rybohunter 12-05-2008 05:34 AM

RE: If you had a choice............
 
Since money would be of no concern I’d have to go somewhere rather exotic where there would be no other way I could pull it off.

I saw Jim Shockey hunting stags in Turkey. That looked pretty cool. New Zealand would be cool, like someone said water buffalo in Australia too. Maybe hunt something in Russia? Bears, caribou? Going after Sable in Africa I think is a really expensive hunt, those things are beautiful.

Muliefever 12-05-2008 05:35 AM

RE: If you had a choice............
 
Hands down for me would be a Spot and Stalk Brown bear hunt! Followed closely by a sheep slam.

BobCo19-65 12-05-2008 05:39 AM

RE: If you had a choice............
 
Yukon Moose, with a longbow.

Cougar Mag 12-05-2008 05:52 AM

RE: If you had a choice............
 
Either elk in N. Mexico or moose. No offense to anyone but I wouldn't waste my time hunting whitetail when they are so plentiful in almost every state. If I had a dream hunt its gonna be something that I couldn't hunt at home.

njbuck22 12-05-2008 05:53 AM

RE: If you had a choice............
 
Im with the sheep slam guys, Stone, Dall, Bighorn and Desert Big Horn. Unfortunately to accomplish this goal you need unlimited money.

PreacherTony 12-05-2008 06:23 AM

RE: If you had a choice............
 
It would be an elk hunt for me 1st
400lb whitetail in northern Canada 2nd

Money no issue? Hmmmmmmm,,, how about split tail on the Las Vegas strip?:D

YooperMike 12-05-2008 08:11 AM

RE: If you had a choice............
 
Yukon moose with Shockey. His territories are unreal. I'm bringing the bow to do it.

2nd would have to be the trip with Burnie!

New Zealand on those rolling hills with beautiful scenery sounds awesome......Either that or some Canadian Whitetail hunting.

I'd love to go on a pronghorn trip. Oh wait, I am in 3 years:D.
Hmm, money no issue, I'd go to Africa.
