I don't know what to say.  My hunt lasted three hours.  My bear is 400 lbs. 7 foot and a potential booner.  I missed a bigger bear half hour before.  I saw 6 bears in that time.  This lodge in Manitoba took care of all of us.  I will be going back for another bear hunt in three years when I can take my son.  We stayed in the main lodge.  The food and service were second to none.

Marty shot a P&Y bear the same night I shot mine.  In fact four bow hunters took 4 P&Y bear and potential booner all on the same night.  Ron, the outfitter, was pretty excited that night!

My client just came back from his trip to Alaska.  The halibut they caught was 62 pounds.  He said another person that was fishing with this charter landed an 80+ pound halibut.  David and his wife enjoyed the trip; the fishing and the food was good.  The downside was the two hour boat trip to the fishing area in a 19 foot skiff in rough waters.  But, once they got there the fishing was great.  He would recommend it to another fisherman!

We had a great trip!  No issues or problems.  Had to buy a freezer for all the fish I brought back.  Each of us took home 100 pounds of halibut and salmon.  Silvers were running in the 8-10 pound range.  Pinks in the 6 pound range and the kings were not running.  Weather was fantastic, no rain.  Thanks again!

Again Jared and I had a wonderful time in Montana.  Dave and Patty were great.  Dave guided us to all the best fishing spots on the Bighorn River and we caught lots of rainbow and brown trout.  The accommodations were wonderful and the food served was delicious.  We are already talking about when we could go back again.  We'll let you k now and thanks for all your help.

We should have gone three for three, but I blew a 20 yard chip shot on a very nice buck.  I ended up hitting him high and to make a long, frustrating story short, he's alive and well and possibly waiting for me to try again next year.  My clients, Roger Drissel and Clayton Kruse were very happy.  Roger's buck was his first ever bow kill and he stalked it no less!  Clayton's buck was very well earned; he spent around 40+ hours in the blind to score on a 14" buck that should easily make Pope and Young!  Even though I came home without it was awesome to see my clients so very happy!

My hunting partner and I just returned from Idaho.  We saw just about everything but an elk.  We saw bear, moose, mule deer, lion tracks, and lots of elk tracks.  I worked one bull, which I never saw.  He was about 300 yards away, when the wind shifted and he was gone.  Darl provides a camp with good equipment, including FM radio for contact to the outside world on a nightly basis.  The area is truly beautiful, but ugly steep.  The area where I worked the bull was only .6 mile from camp, and 1300 feet higher.  It took me four hours to get there.  Many sheer rock cliffs and alder jungles in the drainages.  It is a good place to go, but hunters need to be prepared, including waterproof boots of at least knee high, preferably hip waders.

My trip to New York was great.  The guide and equipment were good.  The fishing was very good.  In two days my client and I caught 8 fish - 5 over 20 pounds, one at 18, one at 12 and one at 8 pounds.  I will go back again.

We arrived home from our hunt on Monday after lunch.  We were all successful.  We harvested two moose on the 25th and one on the 27th.  We had a very good time and very good guides.  Two of the moose came into calling, and let me tell you, that will get your heart really pumping!  It was a great time.  Thanks for setting this hunt up for us and for all of your help.

I just got a call from Mr. Nelson who just returned from British Columbia.  He was very happy with everything; every flight, hotel, the boat and Peter.  It all could not have gone better.  They had almost no salmon run which made the hunting very tough.  On October 4th, the two guys that were with Peter both got their grizzly bear.  Scott got an 8 1/2 foot bear with a 25 1/2 inch skull.  He shot it at 47 yards.  He has no picture of him with the bear, as it fell into water and it was very hard to get to.  Thanks for all your help to make this trip go smoothly for Scott.  He was very impressed with all of you!

I just heard from Karl Koner, fresh off a drive back to Toronto from Alberta on a moose hunt.  Karl managed a 47" moose, and was cutting all the meat at his house when he called.  He said it was "challenging" to say the least.  It rained or snowed the entire time they were there, and for the two weeks prior.  Getting around was pretty hairy at times in the muskeg swamps, the moose weren't moving at all, and while all this was going on he still managed to laugh about it as he was telling me the story!  He said it was a heck of an adventure, and Greg took good care of all the guys in camp.  All in all, he was pretty happy with the entire experience and service provided by Greg.

Steve,

We did great!  Had an AWESOME trip in all regards!  Dad got his Monday morning.  I will send pictures soon.  Montana was great!  One of the antelope we took was pushing 80" B&C!

I just got off the phone with John West.  He raved about the time he and Walter Johnson had on their antelope hunt in Montana.  Each guy tagged out and are thrilled with their trophies.  John promised that the survey and pictures are on their way.

Jeanna and Dustin Roy just returned from their whitetail and mule deer hunt in Nebraska and had a great time.  Jeanna harvested a respectable 8 point; her biggest whitetail ever and Dustin saw lots of mule deer and passed on a couple, but was very pleased with the outfitter and guides efforts.  In Dustin and Jeanna's words, "Awesome place, awesome outfitter."  You picked a winner in Jim Kuhn!

The Montana fishing trip was one of the beat client trips I have ever participated in.  The accommodations are a very comfortable, relaxing environment allowing for some great relationship building time.  The food is also amazing; you get three huge meals a day.  The trip was an absolute success.  The clients have talked about the trip every time I have seen them since.  I would highly recommend this trip to anyone who has a client base that likes to fish!

Dave runs a great operation in Montana, in fact probably to good.  I shot my mule deer on the first day and had numerous bucks to choose from.  I am ready to rebook for next year and I am bringing my brother with me.  Thanks for the recommendation.
