Come Hunting with Us

All trips include your professional goose hunting guide(s) calling for you in pre-scouted fields.  Food and drink is provided according to what package you choose below.  If you have any allergies or food preferences (e.g. veggie, diet soda), please discuss this with us prior to the trip in order for us to ensure your satisfaction.  Please bring your favorite field and/or marsh camouflage, an insulation layer, warm boots, gloves, hat and face mask.  Bring your favorite shotgun and spare, or rent a Benelli SBEII from us for $100 a day.

Beginners are welcome as we will show you the ropes of how to set up a field, how to pattern birds, how to choose the number of decoys to use and what size shot to load your gun with.  We will go over gun and hunting safety with everyone.

Families are encouraged, as bringing your son or daughter is a great way to introduce them to this great sport while passing down some of our heritage.  They will be hooked immediately with all the action.  Youngsters can shoot or just watch depending on their age.

Trip Information
We offer a first class experience with many options from hunt only packages with professional guides, to all inclusive packages including great food, and all the gear you require - including hevi-shot and a Benelli SBEII!  Trips begin at your hotel where your guide will provide you with your licenses before your drive to the field.  Your guide will have warm breakfast sandwiches, coffee, hot chocolate and apples cider to start your day off right.  Pick-up time will vary according to sunrise, we like to get in the field and set up with lots of time to spare to insure we are ready at first light.  We'll shoot until tags are full, and then pack up the trailer and head in for lunch and some relaxation, maybe even a nap.  In the afternoon, we either head to the water or another field for a duck shoot.  We'll work birds over cork floaters and spinning wing decoys.  If limits have already been reached, we can head to a field for some sporting clays with our electric trap thrower that oscillates and wobbles to give you a variety of targets.  Once we are done with our afternoon shoot, we will have a hearty dinner and then return you to your hotel.  You will sleep very well after a day of excitement and fresh air!  We usually like 4 people per group, but call if you have a smaller group or are a single, and we will try to pair you up with other hunters.

3-Day Hunt
Over the course of three days, you will have three morning field goose hunts, and two afternoon duck shoots.  If daily limits have been reached, we can have an afternoon trap event.

Corporate Day Hunt
Corporate Day Trips are a great team building experience.  Lots of companies that do a day of corporate fly fishing with us in the summer come back for a day of goose hunting in the fall.  For some businessmen, it is a monthly outing with both local and international clients, which allows them to have world class waterfowl hunting, and still be able to do some business with our close proximity to downtown Calgary and the International Airport.  For other corporations, it is an activity that many of the people on the trip have not done.  Learning curves are steep and everybody works together with set up and take down of the decoys and blinds.  A lot of laughs are had by all as the unexpected turns out to be a fun and rewarding experience.  We can tailor the day to anything that you need.  First time shooters can participate in our Learn to Shoot Sporting Clay Event before the hunt so safety and gun handling can be addressed and so they can hone their new shooting skills before the hunt.  Let us know your ideas for your corporate team.

Cast and Blast Package Hunts
Cast and Blast Packages are a great reason to visit Alberta in November!  Once November 1st hits, we are allowed to shoot while floating down the world famous blue ribbon Bow River!  Depending on the weather, fly fishing in November can  be some of the best fishing of the year.  On this trip you get to fish all day, and when we get close to birds, its time to set down the rod and stop "casting", don the shotgun, and start "blasting!"  If the weather it too cold for fishing one day, we just to a normal day of field and slough hunting.  Any combination of fishing and field hunting is fine, just let us know what you would like to make your trip enjoyable. On days when we float, we are on the river for most of the day.  Cast and Blast Packages
