John E.

“Every aspect of our mule deer hunt was great. The only downside to this hunt is that future hunts won’t be able to match it. We are a group of 4 hunters on our 4th mule deer hunt including New Mexico and this is the 1st time any of us have pulled the trigger. All 4 of us got great muleys during the first 3 days of our hunt and we also harvested a 6×6 elk. I will gladly be a THA reference and will return.”

Greg E.

I would be happy to be a THA reference.”

Buck H.

“Great guys, great country, knowledgeable guides, super food and good densities of whitetail and mule deer. Everything was excellent. I would recommend THA to my friends and would book with THA on returning to Alberta. My hunt was professionally coordinated and executed extremely well by the guides. If all your guides are as knowledgeable and professional as I experienced, I predict that THA will continue on a great tradition of high quality outfitting.”

Mark K.

Kirk L.

Pekosky, MI

Kyle L.

Pekosky, MI

“Everything about my THA mule deer hunt was excellent. The local guides have great knowledge of the hunting area and know all the mule deer patterns and escape routes.

I would be pleased to be a THA reference and will definitely hunt with THA on my return to Alberta.”

Trevor P.

I would be pleased to be a reference for THA.”

Chuck R.

Keller, TX

“Everything was excellent, or better than excellent and was as described prior to the hunt. The quantity and quality of the mule deer was superb as was our guide, accommodation & food.

You can use me as a reference and on my return to Alberta, I’ll book with THA.”

Lecenter, MN

“The pre-hunt communications, quantity & quality of game, guide’s competence & ethics and food & hospitality were all excellent and I look forward to returning to again hunt with THA. It’s sure nice to finally get my mule deer after 3 unsuccessful muley hunts elsewhere. Everything was as purported in THA’s pre-hunt communications and I would be pleased to be a THA reference.”

Randy W.

“This was my first archery mule deer hunt with THA and I had a great time. My guide was knowledgeable, friendly and competent with unquestionable ethics.

“This was the complete package with alternate options that led to success. The hunt was even better, much better than purported in pre-hunt communications. THA is a great organization with great guides and great support and I’ll be back for my 4th THA hunt next year. As great as THA is, they are always striving to improve as evidenced this year by introducing a wonderful new local guide. An extra thrill was being able to hunt with the head of THA, Peter Brill. He was as great in the field as he is as an organizer. And he serves fine wine. Thanks again for everything.”

Jim B.

Fairbanks, AK

“We had great guides and staff. The accommodations were wonderful. Moose hunting was difficult and was not helped by crunchy snow and fog.”
