Trophy Rifle Alberta Whitetail Hunting Season
Everybody wants to hunt the rut, and for good reason! the only downfall is it can get cold. The weather conditions in November can be very harsh. But if you’re there for a chance at a big buck, just keep this in mind: The harsher the conditions the bigger the trophy.
During the rut, your chances of harvesting a mature buck are best if you patiently sit an area with hot does. Eventually a buck will cross your line of sight. Hopefully it’s a big one. You will be expected to stay on your stand all day long unless the weather conditions do not allow it. While you’re hunting, your guide will be scouting for deer activity and looking for hot does. What you see and what your guide finds will determine the best course of action for the next day.

Alberta WHITETAIL Hunting The Central Foothills
This Alberta whitetail hunting camp is located in the foothills, right at the edge of the farmland where the forests extend into the Rocky Mountains. Because of this, you can hunt farmland trophy bucks and/or “bush bucks” which develop heavier mass and tend to be older age-class. The Central Alberta Foothills are known for producing World-Class trophy whitetail deer, with some of Alberta’s best buck-to-doe ratios. On top of that, there is very little local hunting pressure.
This traditional hunt has comfortable lodging, while at the same time being remote, with the opportunity for a trophy buck. This is an affordable 2×1 hunt. Your guide will drop you off at your stand and leave you alone to hunt to minimize impact to the hunting area. This means you’ll have to do your own field judging. Most of the time, there will be trail cam pictures in camp of the bucks in the area. You and your guide will study them together to give you an idea of what to expect.
