RE: I'm Back from Alberta
ORIGINAL: DoctorDeath I had to make my trip to Alberta witout my rifle because when I arrived at the airport I could not find the key to my rifle case and they would not allow my rifle on the plane unless it was locked ...so I called Don (the outfitter) from Nashville before I flew out and told him ...he said he would have a rifle available for me when I arrived dd "The Application for a Non-Resident Temporary Borrowing Licence for Non-Restricted Firearms (Form JUS 715 EF) must be submitted and approved ahead of time by the Chief Firearms Officer of the province where you intend to borrow the firearm(s)." |

RE: I'm Back from Alberta
why jump on DD in reference to "checking" his gun(s) in anyway? that had nothing to do with the topic. he admitted to losing the key himself and was not blaming the outfitter or Canada for this.

RE: I'm Back from Alberta
There are huge whitetails right here in the midwest on thousands of acres of public land. No way would I pay an outfitter to take me deer hunting. Too many trophys right here. IA has more Boone and Crocket bucks in the record books than anywhere in the nation. Should have kept your money in Americans' wallets and hired an American outfitter, drove yourself to the hunt so that you can bring your firearm and meat home with you and not be a slave to the worthless, emptying your pockets, losing all of your civil rightsairports.
MOM/WSWD on this forum has a guiding service in MO that hasworld class bucks on their farm. They offfer free chase hunts with rifle or bow. Any way, that is why they call it hunting and not shooting.I personally would have brought my own stand and hunted where I wanted according to the wind and sign. There was a lot of snow; should have been easy to scout for sign and get setup in some good travel routes, funnels, between feeding and bedding areas. |
RE: I'm Back from Alberta
"You may have payed the $25 a person too registerYOUR guns at customs... But I highly doubt you Contacted the Chief Firearms Officer of Albertato geta NON-RESIDENT TEMPORARY BORROWING LICENCE! "
Now I believe I have heard everything. A "temporary" license to "borrow" a rifle? It seems the Canadian Gov. is going to make a "dime"on just aboutanythingyou do. Hope you didnt take a leak out of your stand without a "license". best of luck |
RE: I'm Back from Alberta
ORIGINAL: DoctorDeath LOL Samp .... our hunting contract states that ALL tags and licenses are included ...CHECK MATE ! dd But Ill play Devils advocate a little bit more,, lets say it did cover that cost and you had the Non-resident temporary firearms borrowinglic(which I very highly doubt you had).. How is that guide is going to do any scouting or even push bush,, it clearly states thatYOU must be: [*]hunting under the supervision of an outfitter or other person authorized to organize hunting services in Canada; Now if this is the case,,, which you say it is.... He had too sitin that truck and watch you all day long,, because you didnt bring your own firearm, and he had too directly watch you with a borrowed firearm! So I would say if this is the case,, which you say it is...He was being a great outfitter by keeping youLEGAL while hunting! |

Just curious DD, what kind of rifle did they give you to use?

RE: I'm Back from Alberta
I'm curious as too why the outfitter would let you go in the woods without sighting in or even shooting the borrowed rifle??? I would of insisted on shooting the gun at least a few times! Better luck next time!

ORIGINAL: BowHuntingFool I'm curious as too why the outfitter would let you go in the woods without sighting in or even shooting the borrowed rifle??? I would of insisted on shooting the gun at least a few times! Better luck next time! BHF we arrived on Sunday afternoon and drove to where we would be staying in Edmonton ...from there it is about 45 miles to where we hunt and with the road iced over in certian places he just felt we did not have enough time to get there to zero in before dark .... I would obviously had prefered shooting a few rounds but he had the keys and the truck.... I suppose I could have insisted on shooting the rifle during the middle of the day but I would have had to hiked out about a mile is knee deep snow then back again for the evening hunt ... he told me he had used it earlier in the month to shoot beavers so I beleived it to be on ...as it turned out it was dead on from right to left but 7 to 8 inches high at 100 yards ...as it turned out I didnt even NEED a rifle LOL ... dd |

I guess its a good thing you didn't see a monster since the gun was shooting high! Then you'd really be pissed! Better luck next time!lol

RE: I'm Back from Alberta
You think a .270 is a varmint gun? A .270 will blow a 4inch diameter hole in a deer, im sure it would kill elk and moose, so imsure it would take that trophy buck...have you ever shot one C.Davis

But I do have to agree with SwampThing that what you did in borrowing the gun and not having the proper forms was illegal. If you would have been stopped and checked, you would have been in a world of trouble. No matter if the customs/immigration official told you nothing about the permit. Like they say, ignorance of the law is no excuse. Anyways, better luck on your next trip! |
