Hunting in Saskatchewan



WELCOME TO SASKATCHEWAN, CANADA'S HUNTING PARADISE!


Dear Sportsman:

We proudly offer you some of the best hunting opportunities in Saskatchewan!  The province is know for its big bears and has a black bear population of 40,000 (est. 2004); a whitetail deer population of 375,000 (est. 04); moose population of 43,000 (est. 04). Saskatchewan sits on one of the continent’s major waterfowl flyways; a flyway that ducks, geese, cranes and other migrating birds take on their yearly migrations.

We are licensed to guide in both Alberta and Saskatchewan.

Black Bear:

We hunt bear in northwestern Saskatchewan, located about 500 kms northwest of Saskatoon on Churchill Lake and Frobisher Lake.  The area is only accessible by boat or plane and therefore abundant with game and wildlife.  Our hunting area is outlined here (see Map).

We have had a 100% success rate for the last five years, including 2006. There were three (3) Boone & Crockett taken in 2006. Our bear rate 52% Pope & Young or larger.

The numerous black bears in this region range in colour from black to chocolate brown and honey blond.  Barrels in the hunting area, baited with beaver, oats and bacon grease, help us achieve a kill rate of 100%.  Hunting with us will ensure that you will see trophy bears. Several 'Boone & Crockett' bears are taken every year with either rifle or bow and arrow. Ninety (90%) of our guests to date, have been bow hunters.

You will be hunting from a tree stand next to a bait site from 4:00 PM until dark. We will skin the bear for you and freeze it.  We will prepare Cites papers to export your bear hide at a later date or take it to a local taxidermist for you. U.S. residents may take their trophy along when they leave.

The bear hunt is done out of cabins, located right on the lakeshore of Churchill Lake, with more cabins available on Frobisher Lake. The rustic cabins are heated with woodstoves and each cabin sleeps 8 hunters. Our camp features a power plant, hot showers and outhouse. You can bring your own sleeping bag or rent one for $20.

Our fly-in tent camp is located on Landsdowne and on MacIntyre Lakes located near Cree Lake. The camp is intended for only 6 hunters per season.


Whitetail Deer:

The same wilderness area is also home to many Whitetail deer, which are hunted during the month of November.  We host about 30 whitetail hunters each year. We hunt with ski-doos and all-terrain vehicles from various cabins located in areas which are virtually unhunted since the access is very difficult. 

The success for whitetail scoring 140+ 'Boone & Crockett' points is almost guaranteed because we bait the deer with oats and alfalfa. On average our hunters see 5 to 10 whitetail bucks per day from their tree stand (ground blind).

Deer scoring 190+ 'Boone Crockett' points are taken every year in that part of Saskatchewan.


Moose:

Our moose hunt is done out of the same cabins as the bear hunt. We hunt the lakeshore by boat and call moose. Moose trophies from our hunting district reach an average spread of 45 inches. We are proud to achieve a kill rate of 75%. We will cape the head for you and freeze it. You will have to supply your own containers in order to take your trophy and your meat home.


Migratory Birds:

Migratory Bird hunting is offered in both Saskatchewan & Alberta. The goose hunting is within a migratory fly-way south of Marsden Saskatchewan on the Alberta and Saskatchewan border allowing you to take your daily limit in both provinces. The price includes accommodations, home cooked meals and bird cleaning right on the farm, where the hunt takes place.
 


Transportation:

Recommended transportation to our camps is by air. You would fly into Saskatoon, Saskatchewan airport. The Saskatoon facility has a direct link with the Minneapolis/St. Paul American hub airport. To hunt big game rent a car or truck and drive to the community of Buffalo Narrows (Google Maps) Saskatchewan; approximately a 5 hour drive.  For migratory bird hunting, your drive to Marsden will take you approximately 2 hours. We will look after you from there.
