Chinese Water Deer in England

Great day! The hunting season for Chinese water deer opened today, Nov 1, so even though we were here yesterday, we didn't hunt. I had to wait over a year to be able to hunt these unusual deer because last year we were here in Great Britain earlier i
Muntjac and Chinese Water Deer

We moved today to a new area to look for Chinese water deer. We are near the town of Buckinghamshire in about a 250-year-old pub. Beautiful rooms, fantastic ... went to the estate where we'll be hunting. It's high-fenced, but we won't be hunting in the hi

Blustery windy day this morning. Got up in the dark, went over and had a cup of tea and at a Duke's house and then went out hunting with Chris and Mike McCrave. We went to an area where we thought there was a chance of both Reeve's muntjac and red deer.
Stealth SNIPERS Shine in Saskatchewan

The Stealth Cams are working great. Most of the bigger bucks are right now nocturnal and the really old bucks we're just not seeing them at all. A few 3 and 4 year olds, one we had pictures of that was on one of my stands the other night at 6:30 and the l

Great photos from our Jim Shockey Signature SNIPER Stealth Cam's revealed the presence of Len's nice 4x4 and Matt Gibson's tall-tined, massive buck. The Stealth Cam SNIPER's have become our primary means of scouting and the best way to learn more about th

Another great day today. Eva opted to stay in today. We headed back into the mountains. Not so far as walking yesterday, but lots of up and down stuff. Climbed up a mountain. Spotted one great big bull first thing this morning by himself across a bog.
So Many Moose, So Little Time

Out in the wild lands of Newfoundland. We had a beautiful blue sky day and we started seeing moose within five minutes' walk of camp, and by 15 minutes walking we had seen four different bulls and about six cows.
Moose Hunt Heads to Newfoundland

I'm standing in the western highland mountains of Newfoundland. It's absolutely beautiful here. We managed to find fall again after being chased out of the Yukon by winter. It's real pretty up here. We landed in a place called Deer Lake on the west side o
Party's Over, Winter Strikes
Posted by jsadmin
Winter wonderland this morning, snow everywhere; the rut seems to be over. I've been calling all day, saw one bull maybe a 50-incher halfway up the mountainside, he listened but then just kept going to wherever he was headed; I think we're pretty well don

Tough, tough day today winter is coming closer and closer north of us and south of us is horrible weather snow, winter wonderland. But right here we're in some kind of opening that it's just cold, cold wind and we saw one tiny little bull moose today and
Never Leave Home without an ARGO
Posted by jsadmin
The first day… we traveled all the way back from spike camp, shut it down for the year; everything is put back in barrels out there so the grizzly bears can’t eat it. We even cut up some firewood for next year so it’s all ready to go.
Great trip back i
Lots of Bulls, Little Cooperation
Posted by jsadmin
We got up early this morning and took the ARGOs up to the top of the mountain and started glassing. We saw four different bulls; one that we figured was pretty good. I called him from almost three and a half miles away. It was dead calm and cold still so

The Moose are Moving and We're in Full Swing

This morning Todd and I got up early. We were exhausted and sore from dealing with the moose until one in the morning, getting back so late at night and hardly getting any sleep. We had to load up the ARGO again with the moose meat that was out cooling. G
Yukon Moose Huge Hunting Success

Today we saw six bulls, four of them were big ones. We were seeing them from way up high on the mountains, glassing for miles. Even at 40 power on the Leupold scope they were just specs. We traveled all the way over to them on the ARGOs and went up to the

Beautiful out here today. The weather was kind of rainy and then sunny, then rainy. The mountains are just crimson beautiful, with yellow willows and white caribou moss and the green. It's beautiful up here; absolutely gorgeous.
