[QUOTE="dawaba, post: 117593, member: 4526"] Lerch, I've shot caribou in Alaska--the Mulchatna herd of the Barren Ground subspecies. I killed a book Mountain caribou along the breathtaking spine of the MacKenzies dividing the Yukon from the NWT. I took two specimens of the Canadian Central Barren Ground race (one also made book) north of Yellowknife, NWT. Then I went to Quebec and hunted the Leaf River herd there, taking two very good Quebec-Labrador bulls. This year, on Sept 25, I leave for Newfoundland to have a go at the smaller Woodland subspecies. I've used the .338 Win, the 30-06, the 7mm Rem Mag, and the .300 Win Mag to bring my bulls to bag. I'll probably take the '06 to Newfoundland mainly because I don't care if it gets (and stays) wet. To answer your query.....if I could only do only ONE hunt for reindeer? No doubt at all: the Central Canadian Barren Ground subspecies out of Yellowknife. I like Rabesca Outfitting....he holds the current world records by rifle, bow, AND muzzleloader. Barry Taylor, mentioned above, is also good. The hunts there are reasonably priced and great fun! Shoot the first great bull you see and then hold out for a record-book specimen as you're allowed two caribou on this hunt. Wolves are also often taken. Lake Trout fishing, if you have time, is spectacular. Take your dad, your best friend, and your teenager for a memorable get-together. Dave [/QUOTE]
