Mule Deer in Ole Mexico

January of 2024, directly after the SCI Convention and GSCO Convention in Nashville, I set out for Ole Mexico in search of Desert Mule Deer and one heck of an EXPERIENCE.  This hunt was a little different in the fact I was heading to a completely different location about a four hour drive north of Hermosillo, Mexico.

Hunting the Javan Rusa Deer in Paradise

Mauritius is a relatively new country by the worlds standards as its roots are basically the British, French and Dutch fighting over whose it is for many years. When you roam around the country/island which doesn’t take too long minus the mountains you need to go up and over or around. The country is only 40 miles, by 40 miles big.

The Great White Continent, Antarctica - Our Last Continent, Don & Mary Harter

We had booked a cruise to Antarctica several years ago because we had seen every other continent while hunting but never been on this one. And probably because no hunting is available. Well, our first planned cruise was cancelled due to Covid and we started spending time in Florida. In September of 2022, a hurricane hit Ft. Myers Beach where we like to stay and in early October, the people we were going to rent from emailed saying their place probably couldn’t be rented in January when we wanted it.

A Cold Canadian Wolf Hunt

For many years the idea of a wolf hunt had been appealing to me. I had already taken coyote and fox by hunting and trapping, and where we hunted black bear near Wawa Ontario Canada there were always lots of wolves. Though I had tried to set up hunts with our friend and outfitter Rick Dickson, there was always an obstacle that would prevent it from happening.
