I grew up hunting whitetails in New Brunswick, and I can still remember the first whitetail I ever harvested. It was a ...

Very nice, what a great way to spend a day. Holding hands with one deer while looking at some of the largest deer that were every harvested. I can only imagine what was going through the hunters minds when their buck walked out into their shooting lane.

roly the blacktails here on Vancouver Island are not huge, I believe the bucks can weight up to 160, 170 pounds. They are excellent eating almost as good as moose.

smokepolehall I really like the black and white photographs. That is a nice fork where did you harvest him.

Elk is a limited entry hunt so I decided to put all my effort towards harvesting a Elk, so this is first time that I ever hunted for them. I always heard that Elk tasted as good as moose and to some people it tastes even better. I had ...

The Eagles Have Landed

I thought I would share a few pictures. We have lots of eagles here on Vancouver Island and I never get tired of seeing them for they are such a magnificent bird. http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y28/Maritimer/Scenery/cid_005001c98b25841c7c80269afacdsch.jpg http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y28/Marit...
