I'm on the left , two middle are rifle kills, guy on the right both with a recurve!

Great pics!  This is making me wanna go hunt caribou again!

Thanks for sharing that is a must do hunt for us someday

Nice pics Jim!

The trip BIll was referring to, we mmmmmmissed the migration entirely and still killed all the bulls we wanted. GREAT place to go, Steve-o, if you want to get up a trip, I'd go back.

Thank for sharing,now I can day dream for that far off day it may happen.

Which hunt did you guys take?
Trophy Hunt or the Woods River Hunt

When I went in 2005  the proprietor had not yet come up with the two types, He just flew you out to the animals if there were none on the woods res, After loosing a lot of $$$ by doing that he developed his two offerings. We had to fly a long way north in Quebec to find the animals and we were provided with Quebec tags as well. Robin Reeves is a man of his word. He took us to them when they weren't around. If I were to go again I'd leave my options open thats for sure on the fly outs

congrats on the bou  

Man Jon...thats what I want to do!! Get on Caribou and catch Pike on a fly rod.  Gonna have to try the Brookies too...I mean...might as well right....I'm already tagged out!!      

Thanks for bringing this up.  Someday I'll be able to go on a trip somewhere.  This sounds perfect.  Guess I better take a look at how much it costs though first...

I went to Quebec in '92 with five other bowhunters. No one loosened a shaft. Caribou were scarce. They even moved us to another camp but it was slow there also. Fishing was great. Only place I have ever caught lake trout. Lots of specks. Would love to go again but it is expensive.  

I have hunted McKay Lake two times for Central Barren Ground Caribou and Caribou are a bowhunters dream come true. One of the best spot and stalk hunts you will ever have. These critters are made to bowhunt.

I assumed the Trophy Hunt was the one which you described at $6000.00! I guess if you were going to spend $4500.00 to hunt Caribou, the extra $1500.00 would be a sort of guarentee and would makes since! If you going, mite as well go all the way! Anyway you look at it, great trip and thank you for the pictures! Damn it is easy to get my blood pumping in January!

Glaccum!!!  Good to see you on here!

This hunt is the best one I've been on. Mckay Lake has more bou, but if the guides get drunk you can't get them up the next day 8-( and the language barrier cost us a few opportunities.

Guys, I think the way it works now is this.  You can book the regular hunt for $4500.  If by chance the caribou are not accessible by boat, then you can add the additional money to be flown to where they are.  This area of Labrador is basically where the annual migration begins.  If they are there during your hunt you will be able to cover a HUGE amount of territory via the extensive river systems.  If they are not there, they WILL fly you to where they are.  I have heard alot of outfitters make this claim but do not actually do it.  They won't just fly you to another camp unless they KNOW the animals are in that area.  
When I went, I flew because I was going by myself but you can drive to the town where the bush plane pics you up.  This would be much more affordable if you have a group going.  Like Biggie said, it is an amazing hunt run by great people with excellent food, accomodations, etc. I can't wait to do it again.
Last I heard there had never been anyone on this hunt who did not have an opportunity at bull caribou.  I don't think too many of the quebec operations can claim that.

Here is a kind of funny story from my hunt up there.  In camp there was a very nice Older gentlemen from Idaho.  This guy had never killed anything with a bow, but thought a caribou hunt may be a good start. Anyway, he shot a compound.  In camp we were shooting at targets and he was a good shot with his compound.  After I had killed my 2 bulls I had a few extra days to help him get his.  One day we really got into them.  I mean TONS of caribou.  After he had completely missed two big bulls he confided in me that he was having a difficult time remaining calm when the moment of truth came since he had never actually killed anything with a bow.  I had been watching both incidents with binoculars and noticed he was really rushing things...taking shots too early, and not waiting for a high-percentage situation.  I offered to go with him on the next stalk to try to help him out. He laughed and said "I was hoping you would say that!"  There were bulls swarming everywhere, but we spotted what appeared to be a real monster bedded down.  The terrain was perfect and we had the wind so we started the stalk.  I told him not to hurry and that we needed to get within 20 yards before he should consider shooting.  We got to within 40 yards or so and I could tell my friend was getting really nervous.  I reminded him to try and stay calm, but you guys know that this is much easier said than done.  I still experience this when hunting unfamiliar species too.  It's fun!  I told him that I would stay back while he finished the last 20 yards of the stalk.  He agreed.  I was lying down on the ground and he was crouching right next to me.  He stood there for awhile, and I was waiting for him to advance when all of a sudden I saw him drawing his bow!  Before I could say anything he launched an arrow and missed the bull by two or 3 feet!  The bull stood up, but was not sure what was going on.  It was very windy so he could not really hear us.  Now the poor guys was a wreck and was shaking and breathing hard.  He then proceded to empty nearly arrow out of his quiver, missing the bull by a long shot each time.  The bull finally realized what was going on and took off running.  Out of desperation the poor guy took a running shot with his last arrow and missed by a mile!  I did not say anything.  I waited for him to speak.  After a minute or so he started laughing so hard I thought the old guy would kick the bucket right there from a heart attack! He looked at me and said "That's not how it was supposed to go was it?"  I said "no."  He laughed and said, "You wanna do it again?"  I said "sure, but this time....."  "I know" he said.  "Get within 20 yards."  I said "yes, and try to calm down.  Don't shoot until you know you are ready."  Unfortunately for the poor fellow, he just could not keep himself calm.  The same thing repeated a couple more times on nice bulls until he finally laughed and said, "You know Jon, I'm not sure if I am really ready to do this...but I'm having a hell of a good time!"   He never did get a bull, despite numerous opportunities, but he never complained.  I kept in contact with him for awhile after that hunt, but then just kind of lost track. That was a fun couple of days.
