Well our 2013 season was 100% as expected, even though we had some very strange weather in the spring and fall. We are fully booked for 2014 and 2015 and will be posting our 2016 prices in the near future. The hunters who took advantage of the 2013 cancellation hunts which initiated this...

Wow, can I get in on that deal? LOL

Well if you can pick them up I will see what I can line up. I am probably going to be in Texas hunting next January and could get them to Phil and he could put them with what he has. We could coordinate it. Should not be a big deal. You two can let me know. Kelly PS Paul.... always...

Paul.............. how hard is it to ship to OZ? If you want I will round you up some 300 grain TSX and ship them to you. Kelly

I can't add anything. A good quality 1.5 - 4 or 1.5-5 up to a 2.5-8 will do what you need. You definitely do not need anything more. I have shot quite a few elk and moose with the .375 and really, you don't need anything more than 4 power to whack those big ungulates all the way out to 300 yards...

Oh come on Alan, a we bit of snow............ it is -35 outside where I live. ;) Hope to hear about some of your hunting at home. My wife and I are planning a trip over there in a year or two and I aim to spend a few days stalking while I am there. May need to pick your brains later. Kelly

Yes OP as stated above, I would talk to Paul Truccolo at Southern Safari Australia. Southern Safaris Australia However, I think you are going to find that your timing........ April............ is not the best for accessing a lot of the northern territory. Worth a shot though. Good luck and...

To all............ sorry, I am not trying to bump my own thread. Unfortunately it does not allow you to go in and change anything on the original post and I wanted to advise of some changes for booking availability. I am fully booked for 2014 now. I still have a couple of fall 2013 hunts...

Excellent cats. Love the heads on those babies!!

Good job on these hunts Louis. I think that your having a 10,000 acre hunting area will make the hunts for lion behind fence far more palatable to a lot of hunters. Your prices are very good, especially considering it includes the charter flight. People wanting a lion should be looking hard at...

It is short sighted and I always do the same thing when I can. They can screw me once but they won't get a second chance. Sometimes it is not practical though, I live in a really rural area and with a lot of things there are no second choices when it comes to stores. Fortunately with fuel i get...

Hi Macs, good to hear from you. Hope all is well at your end!

I prefer 125 grain broadheads with fixed blades. There are a number of very good manufacturers out there. I have just seen too many failures from some of the other styles with inserts and the expanding types, particularly when they hit bone, but not always. As with many things in hunting...

Yes........ the firearms politics hot potato in the US is affecting us here as well. Friends in the big cities tell me the shelves are looking a little bare in places. I was at a small town store this last weekend that has some reloading supplies and it is still well stocked, but if this carries...

Greetings Aaron. I know you will enjoy your African hunt and wish you the best of success. I have only hunted once in Texas and it was in that Alpine country. Rugged and beautiful!

For those interested in a big black bear and an enjoyable hunt, give us a shout. We only have a couple of openings left in fall 2013 for September 8-14, a couple in spring 2014 for May 20-26, and 2015 is booking heavily as well with just a few openings left in the spring and fall. Thanks for...

Maybe I didn't read it closely enough but from what I saw it adds up to $19,000 plus the extra fees.

Well done. Nice cat and you earned him.

Well as Brickman said, most Canadian provinces have a minimum draw weight restriction of 40 lbs. Not sure about elsewhere. I use to shoot a recurve then switched to a compound and now am thinking about switching back as I like the simplicity, but you greatly diminish your effective range as...

OP I have hunted them free range in Alberta (near Wood Buffalo National Park) and in the Northwest Territories. It is a great hunt for real wild bison in those areas and as Brickburn said, it is a lot of work getting a big bull out of the middle of nowhere. Hunts in those areas are typically in...

Code4 that looks like a great time.

Thanks Big 5!

New website up and running...... finally! Home | SKYLINE ADVENTURES

Merry Christmas to everyone on AH. Hope you all have a safe, but adventure filled New Year!

Interesting. What load are you using? My latest Barnes manual does not have a single load that cracks 2200 fps with the 350 grain TSX in their loads for the Ruger #1.

We are offering a new package as a result of a number of hunter enquiries over the last year. There seems to be some who would like to come on our bear hunts but prefer to drive up in their motorhome or drag their big travel trailers along. They could then park on our farm and plug in and do...

We only have a couple of hunts available for fall 2013 and five for 2014. Our hunts are about shooting big bears, not just a bear. If you are serious about wanting a big one drop us a line.

Finally got around to adding some pictures. :)

Our bear hunts are conducted in southwestern Manitoba near a national park, an area that is well known amongst serious black bear hunters for producing big bears and Boone and Crockett heads come from our area every year. This is also a good area for colored bears and about 40% of the bears...

Hmmmm......... I am all for shooting sticks. But this looks like too much of a good thing for me where I hunt. Maybe with plains game? Perhaps I am not seeing things in the right perspective.

Eight power are fine for most hunting, but many years ago I found I preferred the 10x for mountain hunting. Once I was use to them I never looked back. Having said that it really does depend on what and where you hunt, as well as if weight/bulk can be a factor. i would also recommend saving and...

Ibexhunter........... beautiful ram. Magnificent country. Congrats!

Great trophy in a spectacular part of the world. Well done.

Personally, I am glad to see it back in Reno. I know lots of people have different opinions, but I don't much care for Vegas.

Much depends on how deep your pockets are. Northern Manitoba for moose and caribou and central BC are not too bad price wise. Once you look at the NWT and the Yukon it is going to be a lot more. Great hunting, don't get me wrong, but not for most pocket books. Big difference in the hunts as...

Great to see. I am sure it will take a long time to wipe the smile off her face. :)

This is nice to see. Canadian hunters.............. to be safe, you need to apply to the ATF 3 months before you need the permit. American hunters complain to me all the time about coming to Canada and having to get a firearms permit and pay $25. Give me the option of filling out a form...

Well I have not participated in the AH forum for some time and had a look around while retrieving a couple of PM's. When I read this last page of yet another canned lion hunt thread I would have sworn I was reading posts on another forum instead of AH.

Enysse and 35 bore. I don't think PaulT took the intent of your thread as an attack on the outfitting industry at all. To me he was simply stating that there are a lot of costs associated with hunting in remote areas that greatly contribute to the cost of hunting certain species and that one...

And that pretty much sums it up.

Thanks Mike. All is well and keeping busy. :)

Lots of hard work has gone into it. Shiras moose are the smallest moose and not many pass the 1000 pound mark. I assume you are simplifying things a bit as the Canada moose is the mid-size and most wide spread and is bigger than the Shiras but smaller than the Alaska/Yukon variety...

The Snows of Kilimanjaro The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber

Macs, Great story. When they are moving through here, heading your way, it is just incredible to see. They upped the possession limits here this past year. There are so few bird hunters now, compared to 25 years ago and the goose populations are staggering. Figures. :) Anyways, we are not...

You want geese? Where I live in Manitoba they come through by the tens of thousands. Canada's, Snow's, Blue's, Ross', White Fronted. I won't even mention the ducks. :)

The usual. Peace on earth. :)

And that, my friend, pretty sums it up quite nicely. Well said.

Nice cat!. The stories that old boy could tell.

Absolutely. While an outfitter belonging to the local association can be an indication of a reputable operator, or at least be one of the things you take into consideration when researching an outfitter...........it is not always relevant. There are jurisdictions where membership in the local...

Thanks Akmike.............you beat me to it. Flash you are in luck. I am shooting some 380 grain Rhino's out of my .375 H&H. You can tell your friend he is the one who does not know what he is talking about. I am getting 2280 fps. I have also been working with the 350 grain North Forks and am...
