RE: Bowhunt in Alberta
Bowhunting in Alberta is phenomonal. I absolutely love it and am blessed to be able to hunt here day in and day out. There are some big elk and moose here no doubt. The elk in early September are just starting to get going... gathering up harems etc. I find the best thing is almost to cow call. Locate them and then get in and cow call.. because the bulls are still looking to get a herd of cows in their name. Towards the middle of Sept its more bugling and chuckling. Im sure you will do well.

Anytime Edooley... have you ever considered teaming up with someone out here and doing a Hunter Host?? If you can find someone willing, and knows where the bulls are.. it could save you some money depending on where your at etc...
If your interested I may be able to find someone who would take you out.

uhhmmm.. im not overly sure on exact pricing. But a hunter host is simple.. your host would pay for that, then you as the hunter need your non-resident tags. travel expenses. hotel accomadations ( unless he has a place to bunk, or hunting camp ) and a little appreciation to your host 
For an elk hunt lets say, a guide will charge you between 3000-5 or even 6000$. Only difference is, the hunter host is taking you to his locations which can depend on the quality of animal. It is something to consider... I know I would if I were going out of province or country to hunt.
Hope that helps....
