sure northway outiffters are probably real good but all i say is keep an open mind. There are plenty of other good outfitters in sask that maybe haven't got the publicity. Being that northway outfitters is such a popular name more than likely these guys will be booked up for a couple years. My friend here is an outfitter and he is already booked up for this season and he does not even advertise. I am just letting u guys know that just because realtree was there, doesn't make them any better of an operation and be open to other outfitters in sask because they will be just as good if not better.....

i would love to have you hunt alberta and sask. too, but you said in the u.s. have you looked into what you need to hunt and bring you guns into Canada i think you can at 16 if you are hunting with someone over 18 (18 is our drinking age) i hope you can and will. i am canadian and we have a lot to offer but what our government dose is not what we want some times but we are fighting hard to keep our guns just like you in the u.s. i know theirs some outher people here from canada maybe they can give you some input on how to bring you guns in to canada if not go to the forum for hunting outher places

I would say right where I do hunt. In southern Iowa. The world record buck was taken this year just a little ways from where I hunt.

Getting firearms and ammo over the border is more lengthy than it once was but if you fill out the paperwork in advance you can be assured that you'll have no problems and be on your merry way quickly when you land at a canadian destination. Most outfitters will give you contact information and what is required. Here is the website for the Canadian firearms Centre that you can access the forms, info ,etc (look under the vistor portion) www.cfc-ccaf.gc.ca.

I agree I certainly wouldn't base my hunt on the realtree boys. Do your homework believe me far better camps to hunt then Northway. Not saying Northway is bad but you can't honestly think Realtree goes there b/c its the best Sask has to offer do you?

If i did hunt in Canada i would have people over 18 with me and also bambikiller6 do you know of any good outfitters personally in Sask or Alaska

sorry but i hunt my own land a lot and dont use outfitters if i dont have to. i will keep my eyes open for you

No offense, and maybe a lot of other guys can agree with me here. But if you're only 16, I really don't think you'd have the patience for a 16 hour stand sit in Saskatchewan under extreme freezing conditions. Especially when the hunt extends for 5,6 or 7 days. Try somewhere like Iowa or Illinois.

If I wanted to go on a hunt that was a pay hunt, the outfitter "guaranteed" a shot at a trophy buck, top notch meals, etc, why not go to a place like the Sanctuary or one of the other top notch rated pen hunts? Heck, if the outfitter is going to do all the work what is the difference. (I hope you realize I was being a bit facicious as I am quite happy hunting our south Alabama whitetails)

buckfever,
i hope you do what you want to do all we are giveing you is our 2 cents

Timbercruiser, I'm with you. The Black-Belt might not be what it used to be, but I wouldn't trade it for anything.
