Deer Hunting Canada
Quesnel, BC, OTHER
Your Experience
North Central BC Hunting
We offer hunts for Whitetail and Mule deer, as a single species or combination hunt. Due to the mild winters, we have been having and recent government restrictions, we have great deer hunting opportunities. We hunt both private and public land, in a variety of locations throughout the guide area. We typically hunt our deer in the later season, this results in us being able to look over a lot more deer and choose the right buck.
Mule deer have long been considered one of the most sought-after big game trophy animals, and here. We can produce some incredible wall hangers. Our mature bucks will range from the 160s clear up to 200 +, with both typical and non-typical antler configurations.
The Whitetail hunting is equally as good, or maybe even better than, our mule deer hunting. These northern giants have seen one monster recently tape in at 230 non-typical…..bucks like this are not around every corner, but the habitat and genetics are in place. A good average mature buck will go 140 to 180, and once again we see both typical and non-typical antlers
The southern portion of our area consists mainly of Agricultural land and cattle range, we work closely with landowners to ensure access to some of the best hunting spots. For anyone looking to harvest one or both deer species worthy of the record books book with us and see why only the most astute deer hunters hunt with us.
Mule Deer Facts
There are about 165,000 mule deer in BC’s interior.
Mule deer are primarily browsers.
Muley’s can weigh over 250 lbs.
Lifespan is typically 9-11 years.
Muley’s are considered one of our iconic Western hunting big game species.
Eyesight can pick up movement out to 600 yards, but motionless forms are hard to pick up.
Their sense of smell may be 1000x our own……mind the wind.
If alarmed a buck may flee but it has a typical flaw in its retreat, it stops and looks back, stay ready!
First light produces deer.
They bed not far from their food source.
The rut runs from the end of Oct through Nov.
Bucks will go from the 150 to 180 range.
Getting Here
You can drive yourself to camp we are about 12 hours north of the Washington State border. Get on Hwy 97 north, you will either meet us in Quesnel (1 hour south of Prince George) or Vanderhoof (1 hour west of Prince George). Plan to arrive in camp a day before your hunt starts. We will share additional directions as needed.
If you choose to fly in, you will fly into Prince George (XYS). West Jet and AirCanada from Vancouver to Prince George flights are available 6 flights per day. We will meet you and pick you up from the airport the day before your hunt starts and plan to fly out the day after your last day of hunting. We suggest flying in a day early and booking accommodations with the Prestige Hotels and Resorts from there, we will arrange your pick-up and delivery.

Rules & Guidelines
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM US:
An honest hunting experience – While hunting with us you can expect that we will always act with you and your experience in mind. We will offer our best efforts to ensure your hunt is a complete success. This is fair chase hunting, not simply shooting, but we understand that your success comes first and then ours follows……..we are not in this to fail:) We book our hunts with the expectation of 100% success on each and every hunt, we do not overbook. Do not expect perfection, now and again the unforeseen will happen and we will always do our very best in every situation. We are not meat cutters or taxidermists but we will help you with your tagged animal, this is something we do to help you but it is not a listed service that we are responsible for.
Professional outfit, comfortable camps, good food, and great people.
A good representative of the species – Our hunting areas have proven over the years to produce record book big game animals, but not on every hunt. We work our hardest to find you the very best representative of the species we have to offer.
British Columbia weather – The weather can play a large factor in the hunt, and BC weather can come and go overnight. We know the critters and how they are affected by changing weather and will continue to do our best even on the worst days.
Memories – At the end of it all, it is all about the memories. With BCO you will always leave with memories that will last a lifetime. We are not simply the typical outfit found anywhere in BC, we are unique and enjoy making memories with the clients we soon call friends.
WHAT WE EXPECT FROM YOU:
Come prepared – When you show up to hunt, coming in prepared is important to the overall success of your trip. Mentally, physically, and geared up to hunt hard. Having the right mental attitude and proper gear will help keep you in the game. If you have taken some time to shoot your rifle while at home when you get out here, you’ll be ready to make that 250-yard shot when it counts most (most of our shots will be under 300 yards).
Trust in your guide – Our guides are knowledgeable and friendly, they are there because of their passion for guiding and to help ensure your trip is a complete success. Our guides get almost as much pleasure in your success as you do, they will try to make the right decisions and work with you to ensure a great outcome. Your guided hunt is a team effort
Tip the team – The entire team works very hard. A typical tip runs 10%-15% of the total hunt cost. If there is some reason why you feel a tip is not deserved, then that is something the outfit management should review and resolve.
Relax and have fun – Although finding your animal is our number one priority, our hopes are that your experience with us outweighs the kill. Enjoy your moments with us, we are all here for our love of fair chase hunting.
