    As long as your host has gained permission on some good land you should do well.

    Only thing I can give you is plan out your stalk because if they run they cover ground fast. I have not had the chance to hunt them but have friends who were successful on nice bucks out that way

    Good luck Steve

    I hunted there last year and took a nice pronghorn!
    Hunted with Silver Sage Outfitters and shot my animal on the first day out.
    Are you using an outfitter or going on your own (with a host hunter I presume)?

    Good to hear Mr. Rupp.

    The season is six days long. Which wmu group? Hunting with Springer? I might have some updated intel to share depending on where you will be hunting.

    I'll be hunting prairie goats farther southeast hosting another HBC member.

    It could be a very good year to take a big buck. There have been few tags issued for the last three years now and the herds are rebounding well after the 2010 die-off. Yup, this year and 2015 could be Very good years to hunt Pronghorns in Alberta.
