ISO Guide for resident mulie/antelope hunt

[phillipsgod]

I'm thinking about booking a Resident Mule Deer/Antelope hunt in Southern Alberta for the fall and looking for recommendations for a guide. I am open to a fully outfitted hunt, a mostly self guided hunt, or something in between. I have all the gear and experience to do it myself, just don't have the time to scout and properly prepare.

Thanks!

Can't give you any guides names right now but I don't imagine there's a ton of them that are doing resident hunts you want to find those ones first, check out APOS you can get there Outfitters catalog mailed to you good luck.

Interesting topic when you mention guided antelope hunt .
When or if you find a guide , do they supply a tag or do you need to get one on your own which takes you about 12 years or better .

As a residential Alberton you'd have to have your own tag, they had a two-year thing for covid where you could use Outfitter tags but I think that has past.

I have 14 years priority so I shouldn't have a problem pulling a tag in most areas...

Should be good to go just got to find an Outfitter but they're really not that hard of a hunt spend a couple days in the summer scouting and you'll have an antelope opening morning

You don’t need a draw, that’s the fun thing about apos and their system people can pay an outfitter to hunt thing’s every year that residents are only able to hunt every 15-20 years (think antelope, moose in the sw, elk in certain areas).also their allocations are t changed year to year, they are set up in 5 year increments. Remember a few years back when the SE had a bad winter killed off a lot of antelope? Outfitters had more tags than residents in several areas because their number of tags wasn’t affected by the die off, for a couple years, fun for a system that is supposed to only give the less than 10% of the tags. Not even going to get into how the tags are split up in different zones.

You need a draw if you are a Alberton res ,You can not buy a non res tag off a outfitter except for 2021 2022 because of covid ,Not sure if this is still in effect

Sorry I thought I had implied that, yeah outside of the Covid exception the last few years most guys from Alberta will only ever hunt antelope or other above mentioned hunts a couple times in their life meanwhile anyone else with money can hunt every year.
