Does anyone know if it is fine for a person without a PAL to sign in a rifle or would they have to share a gun.
I will call if we get drawn just wondering if anyone that's been has dealt with this. |

Suffield Elk Cull Hunt February 2015
Has anyone hunted inside Suffield previously? It is similiar to Wainwright for access. I would love to kill an elk there but the information package states no ATV's and no access off maintained roads. Wainwright you can drive any open area so I am concerned as to how only 2 of us would drag an elk to the road if we cannot take the truck to the kill site. Any been there??

Yes
I've been there twice. If you have an animal down it is ok to drive to it to retrieve it. They do ask that you walk the route ahead of your vehicle to check for tank ruts or other hazards. The danger is getting stuck. Range Patrol are not allowed to help you as far as a tow so you will have to have friends nearby or you have to call a tow truck from Med Hat which charges by the hour. Tow truck has to attend briefing so you can see how the $$ will add up.
There were so many freakin trails out there we were able to go everywhere we desired within the hunting areas. Looper |

Thanks Looper, we're putting in for the draw. Wainwirght was like a community hunt, if a large bull was down, we'd end up with 20 guys helping to load it! I can only hope we have as much success in Suffield.

A little tip
Quote:
Be sociable at the briefing. Exchange cell phone numbers and shake a few hands. Lots of guys willing to team up for loading, dragging, spotting. Some guys not so much. Bring spare can or 2 of fuel if you have room. And some snot rags. I cried a little when I saw the bulls that no has a tag for. It's a fun place to be even if it is a cull and not a prisitne wilderness hunt. Looper |
I heard all cows at suffield have been personally spayed by Bob Barker so no possibility of shooting one's that pregnant

Fair enough. That still doesn't make this pics legal. If you goto the safety briefing for any Suffield hunt, they lay down the law on pictures. So why risk it by posting them here? Are they going to do anything about it...probably not. But lets not jeopardize our hunting access to the base. |

Jeez guys just put in for the draw . If you get drawn range control will tell you all the rules. Give you maps and tell you where the herd is. It's not a hunt it's a cull. If i get drawn i will be hunting with friend who is range contro . Just go and have some fun

Fine. Lets let this die. This is going off topic from this thread. Start a new one if you really want to discuss further. At this point none of this is adding to information about this hunt and thread. |

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British..._Unit_Suffield http://www.cenovus.com/operations/na.../suffield.html http://www.calgaryherald.com/technol...436/story.html Google it. There are literally hundreds of pictures from the inside. I don't know what ego maniac decided to institute the no pic rule as it is the only base I know of with such a ridiculous idea, but it isn't iron clad. If they ask you not to because of work or the hunt, then I would abide, but FFS use your head. Nobody is going to get court marshalled, waterboarded or anything else over it. |
What documentation do you need when you register each morning?
Hunting license and tag Vehicle registration and insurance PAL licence Anything else? |
