Yorkton - SK
I went hunting just out of Yorkton,
Saskatchewan, and I was there for a week. I couldn't believe how many deer I
have spotted, unfortunately I missed a chance at a great white tale deer,
truly trophy size.(7 by 6)
But my hopes weren't up and I still harvested
a nice 5 by 5. Truly a great experience!

Lumsden / Qu'Appelle Valley - SK
Description: The Qu'Appelle
Valley is an excellent location for hunting. It's easy to access
with many roads running through it and to it. Just west of Lumsden,
about 10-12 kms is an area in the valley of open fields and just the right
amount of brush. Enough cover and protection to keep deer around,
without too many trees to block your sight lines. There's a creek
that runs through the valley, so expect to find a variety of birds while
you're there as well, like grouse, a few partridge, and some pheasant.
On a recent bird hunting expedition, I was walking along the north side
of the creek and spotted a very nice white-tail buck. Good tall and
wide rack, a thick body, and staring stupid -like at me from the opposite
bank, less than 100 yards away. Maybe he'll be there when I return
for deer season with my rifle.
