TROPHY DEER HUNTING
Enjoy some of the best whitetail deer hunting in Northwestern
Ontario. Deer can be hunted several ways in our area. From tree
stands, we do have several permanent stands and we suggest you
bring portable stands. There are areas where stalking can
provide excellent opportunities to take a large buck. A drive
type hunt can also be arranged. The Minaki area of Northwestern
Ontario is on the northern edge of the deer range. The deer in
this area are very large-bodied and fast-growing. Bucks that
score in the 140's are fairly common. The opportunity to take a
much larger buck depends a lot on the skill of the hunter and
luck.
There is very little deer hunting pressure in
this area. The local hunters are more concerned with meat than
horns, and many of them tell us where they have passed up large
bucks. A buck that field-dresses at 200 lbs. is considered
small.
Our area gets very little publicity, which
means our clients do not have to compete for these large
animals.
We limit ourselves to 4 to 6 guided hunters per week.
Bucks
only. Season runs for 5 weeks ending November 15th.
