How much is a Wolf tag and do they have them on Kodiak? To be honest hunting anything out there for a week would be f***ing excellent, even just f***ing about after ptarmigan/grouse. Aye, 22k is a bit steep. Edited December 2, 2016 by Born Hunter 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mackem 30,861 Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 funny you mention wolf,i just read an article in Predator Nation about shooting wolves in canada,couple of hundred dollars for the licence in ottawa,the province is 85% crown land,84 million hectares suitable for hunting for the residents. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Born Hunter 17,975 Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 (edited) I could spend some money on hunting over there! Wolf would be a must for me, a challenging hunt and get a lovely pelt and scull out of it. Spot & stalked black bear would be another and some sort of mountain hunt, sheep or elk I guess. Compared to the UK the N.Americans shoot so little but any given hunt can be much more of an 'occasion' if you get me. For example, a UK deerstalker that does a bit might be out stalking 2-3 or more times a week, potentially killing hundreds of deer a year. Over there in the lower 48 or the North they'll feck off for a week, maybe kill one animal but still have had a hell of a satisfying experience!

mackem 30,861 Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 I think 2017 his hunts are $12000 or 12-5?Expensive,but he is one of the very few guides who virtually guarantees a big tom,its a fair few quid but a drop in the ocean when weighed against the memory and the experience,truly once in a lifetime.You can get $4000 hunts in places like utah,even saw one for $500 dollars once,but you mightnt even see a cat on the dry ground hunts,just need to win the lottery or sell the kids.
