Hey All
I was lucky enough to pull a shared bison hunt from Jan 1-15. Great group of guys who are prepared to take on all the challenges to make this hunt a success.
We have done a fair bit of research, but I have a few pointed question for those who has done this hunt in the past. Thanks to those who have already supplied info via pm.
We have already booked a big cabin at Tomter Ranch for the later part of the season. Can anyone answer the following:
How long of sled ride from the ranch to the trail around the reserve?
Should we bring our own cooking gear (pots, pans, plates, etc)?
Drinking water available at the ranch?
What’s the rodent situation, should I bring a drowing machine and some traps?
So far from what I have read most of the info is in regarding logistics and planning the hunt. What about the actual hunting . Seems like most cruise around on the sleds until they find fresh tracks and follow on snow shoes. Any other successful tactics?
I plan and loading up some bison thumpers for my 7mm-mag any bullet recommendations? I was going to look at a 175 TSX.
Thanks in advance for the help, any additional info or suggestions would be much appreciated!
Cheers,
Ryan
