Well, some disappointing news today! Two Trad buddies had to cancel out on our planned Newfoundland moose hunt this fall due to personal and health issues. I will be hunting with Conne River Outfitters from Sept 27th-Oct 4th or 5th. This is a 1x1 hunt during prime rut dates. The outfitters gave me the ok to invite other trad hunters into the Dollards Pond Camp before he opens it to other archery hunters. I realize this is short notice but if you have an interest let me know. You can Google Conne River Outfitters for info and I will be happy to provide additional info if you e-mail or call me. 520-780-4220  Thanks, Michael

Let me repeat, these are prime dates in an archery only camp!

Sounds like a great hunt.  Too close to my elk hunt, though.  Dont forget your Final Step!!

Ha, ha! It's already packed Keith! It's a great mouth wash too!!!  

Flatshooter,
Please give me a call on thin in the morning.

Will do!

what can you expect to pay for a hunt like this?

Michael,
This would probably be a long shot for me but I would like more info on the hunt if you would care to share.
It looks like a great place to hunt and moose are on my short list for sure.
I need ( want ) to kill an elk first and will be going again in sept.

Thanks,  Bill

Hey Bill, First off you can Google Conne River Outfitters for general info. Cost of hunt is $5250.for 6 full days with your own guide. Dave McDonald is owner/pilot who will fly hunters into Dollard's Pond, an archery only remote camp. Hunters will stay in Gander NF one night before and one night after hunt. References were very good. Hunt dates are during the prime rut. Dave Mc Donald can be reached at 709-882-2470. Only 4 Hunters assigned to this camp. Feel free to call me 520-780-4220. Best of luck with the elk.

Hey guys,while I certainly don't mind sharing a camp with wheelie hunters, it sure would be nice spending 6 days in this remote camp with some trad guys.

Hunted moose in Newfoundland last Oct.You guys are in for a real treat

Dave McDonald or Dean McDonald?

I had done a bunch of research on NF moose hunts last year and Conne River was one of the best I had found.  
Go for it Bill!  Life is short.  Come home from elk hunting just in time to leave for NF.  Sounds like a perfect plan!

Looked them up. The guy in most of the success pictures and first one on reference list lives just about 10 miles from me.  Think I will have to contact him.  Looks like a great hunt, wish I could swing it.

Got burned on a guided whitetail hunt in Illinois several years ago. From then on I realized how important it was to do the research and contact references. I did that and feel pretty good about my selection of Conne River Outfitters. Dave McDonald impressed me each time I have spoken to him. I'm hoping some of you guys will be able to swing this. Only four to the camp so I would suggest you contact Dave directly and let him know you want in with me at Dollard's Pond as soon as you can.

Any interest out there? This is a great opportunity to score on an eastern moose!

Oh, I'm interested.  But my bank account won't let me.  Not saying that it isn't a good price, just don't have the funds.  If I did, you would have a Kansas boy with you this fall!  Good luck, hope you find a TG'er to go.

Sorry too Glenn! I know it's a big number, I've been saving for this for awhile. Just thought I'd throw it out there for some guys who might be able to commit on short notice. Stay well buddy!

Keep us posted as to how the hunt goes!

Will do!
