Hello,

I'm in a little bit of a predicament as I can't go on my prebooked British Columbia sheep hunt. Unfortunately there is a rule in BC that you can't harvest more than 1 sheep a year. I harvested a nice stone in August before knowing about this regulation.

So, the outfitters name is Grizzly Basin Outfitters (Travis Crabbe) and the hunt dats are October 16-25th.

The hunt cost structure is $16,500 to hunt and $10,000 to harvest. .

It's a 1 hunter 2 guides set up with Travis being one of them. It's based in the kootenay area of BC which generally produce roughly 30% harvest rates. The last few years he's gotten on a ram but due to various hunter failures it's hasn't worked out.

If you interested please let me know.

Thanks

So the cost is $26,500.00 plus travel costs, license ant tag fees. Is this correct. Are there to be any other expected costs?

Crap! You could go to Africa for a month for that.


Imagine a corporate oligarchy so effective, so advanced and fine tuned that its citizens still call it a democracy.

They have high fence hunting there also.

I didn't realize the OP was selling a high fenced hunt.

Yikes! 30 grand + with a 30% success. Maybe one of the Trump boys could take the spot.

Wow, you guys are tough! stevevan1 - check it again, $16k for the hunt, $10k additional for the 'trophy fee' (for you Africa guys!). So expensive, but once in a lifetime for most of us.

It's all in what you want and what you want to pay for, each of us has to decide that. I would be contacting the OP, but I know there is no way I can be in the physical condition necessary to make a bighorn hunt worthwhile in a month. Africa, I'm likely in shape to hunt most things there I just have no desire to go there.

Priorities and preferences. I see this as a great opportunity for someone.

Bump for ya. Once in a lifetime hunt for sure. I wish I could do this, but too short a notice for me to be ready.

Good luck to whoever makes this trip.
