    Depends on what month it is.... April/May/June, hands down, grizzly. Followed up closely by black bears.
    July, wolves and coyotes are my favorite thing to hunt.
    August, that is sheep and caribou.
    September, that month is dedicated to bugling bull elk.
    October, moose and goose time.
    And November is mule deer till the 20th, then whitetails.
    December/January/February/March? Wolves and coyotes.

    Goats... the terrain they live in and the elements you endure. And I find them tasty as

    Agreed, Iv`e been up the hill (Roche de Boule in Hazelton) a couple times. Pretty scary.Hanging on by the finger nails most of the way up a cliff that looked easy at first. Can`t go back, must go up. It sure ain`t for the faint of heart.
    I like whities. Love the meat and just love the moment you see THE buck.

    Bull Elk, and if you have ever had one bugle, and coming in, you'll know why.
    Can't beat that!

    Hunting mule deer is great, but, for the most part, you are hunting them by sight only.

    With White Tails there is a chance to call them in etc, which makes that more "hunter involved", but again, they don't really
    reply, they just show up.

    Best way to describe Elk Hunting....it's like lots of "foreplay", the "build up"...and with success, you have achieved "Climax".
    It really is the most "involved" creature to hunt.
    Yes, Moose can be similar....but come on, they are as about a dumb as a creature can get at times!
    Elk....they can be like incredibly smart.

    chasing bugling elk are #1 for excitement and table fare. Stone rams are a close second.

    Stone Sheep. The country is unreal, nobody around and the game you see on a trip cannot be topped. And they are the most delicious wild game critter we have. Yup, ram heart n liver on a stick is the best, ribs second...
    The only advantage to a light rifle is it's weight, all other advantages go to the heavier rifle..

    -- Mine is the mule deer, because?

    1. I can walk after it in the bush around Kammy
    2. I can realistically hunt the ridges and shoot a mule deer all around Kamloops.
    3. I can bleed, gut, half and get my deer out of the bush, it's still light enuff in half.
    4. I love tracking bucks in snow, with mule deer you can track them -- track for track til you catch up
    5. the still hunting provides X sir size and hunting at the same time.
    6. You can see any sized mule deer near Kammy, from fawn to major buck.
    7. I got two hunting buddies who hunt mules also and we share the excitement and costs
    8. with mule deer an experienced hunter can move the deer into his buddy who is waiting.
    9, Mule deer are strong and fit into the country in Kamloops for centuries
    10. I like the antler formation of a mule deer buck
    11. I like deer meat especially ground meat
    Jel -- Kamloops has spoiled many a mule deer hunter, with world class still hunting -- all around the town --

    As some said, I like them all, but I must say nothing as rewarding as goat hunting.
    I would like to connect on sheep one day as well.
