Here is a pretty good example of big game hunting in the family out in NW Alberta.
After I had found an outfitter named Greg for a post rut elk hunt with 1 bull tag left, I made the big road trip across Canada to Debolt Alberta located 60 kms east of Grand Praire. I stayed on the family ranch for my hunt.
After just 1 full day of hunting with my guide, the very next morning we were able to locate a bull at first light on the edge of an alfalfa field.We made the stalk up to within 400 yds and I made the shot ranged at 370 yds and double lunged the beast..he ran down the field and piled up, and that was it.
So now the family hunters can hunt the bull elk on the 10s of thousands of acres of lands the family owns and it didn't take long for the tags to be filled..photos below were taken all in order, snow & no snow..
Greg and his uncle...then father then nephew
gregs son just after school with his friend
gregs daughter
and finally Greg himself
hope you like the story with the photos
they look like proud hunters to me..I know Greg was when his boy called for help to get the elk home..
if you go and you like Alberta beef...best I ever had right from the farm
