Alberta has been known for a long time as one of the premier places for a chance at a Boone and Crockett mule deer. Every single year, a few giants over 200 inches are taken. Our outfitters hold a large number of tags across the province, so if we start planning early, we can usually find you a hunt.
Success rates are near 100% yearly on bucks scoring at least 170 inches with an amazing amount of bucks being over 200 inches. This is an INCREDIBLE mule deer hunt!
There are some giant whitetail bucks in Alberta. In fact, a few seasons ago our average whitetail scored an incredible 181 inches! That’s tough to beat anywhere! Double that with the probability of a huge mule deer, and you have the recipe for a dream hunt!
If you hunt early in the season, expect to see as many as 15 bucks at a time in bachelor groups feeding in canola fields or oats. These bucks bed in the fields in midday, giving the hunter an excellent spot and stalk opportunity or to position a climber stand for a push. On Alberta archery mule deer hunts, you should be able to do a couple of stalks a day, and sit in the evenings for at least a 170-class mule deer.
Due to the amazing trophy quality, these hunts are in extremely high demand and usually booked years in advance. If you want to go on one of our Alberta mule deer hunts you need to contact us soon.
