hypothetical situation: for what ever reason you or your partner sets off a S&W 500 6 times in rapid succession while you are in a tent. No-one even thinks of putting on hearing protection. Question: How much hearing do you have left?

You'd have no problem with caribou in Quebec. You'd stay in heated tents or cabins provided by your Indian guides. Most of the caribou are spotted by airplane in advance so they have an excellent idea of where you shoud be to get a good shot at them. It's not like hunting them on your own. I forget what the success ratio is, but it's pretty high. I've never actually hunted them myself, preferrig instead to go it alone in pursuit of old bullwinkle. Best wishes.

If you ever need someone to help with Bullwinkle, I would love to go. What is your guiding fee schedule? I am ready to go!

Hello dakota,
I haven't been in several years now. It's pretty expensive. One of our problems is due to the mild weather many caribou drop their horns early. Most guys hunt them for the rack and end up disappointed. It's no where near as popular as it once was. At least that's the story as I get it. I haven't hunted them for quite a while now. Best wishes.

My lust is for moose, I don't know why caribou doesn't thrill me as much. Perhaps it is the way they are hunted, or at least my perception of hte hunt.
