The Prois gear is available in DeWinton from these folks http://www.bilozir.net I saw them at a couple of gun shows this year but don't know anything else about them - except I really liked a couple of the shotguns he had.

My first question is if any of you have any tips on where you get your hunting clothes and accessories?
I have recently discovered that buying kids L, XL and 2XL is a great deal!
Looking forward to hearing from you ladies!

I usually just buy a mens small so I have room to layer more clothes under to keep warm.

I started hunting because of my boyfriend, as I am sure a lot of you ladies have, and I have gained a new found love of the outdoors and that time together as a couple in the field!
I just hope that one year I can take a bigger animal than him!  |
Me too!
This is my first deer (2007)

Thanks
So, the last few days I have been working on a new hunting outfit for my daughter. I made it a bit big so she can layer under it (and it will fit longer!!)
Here are some pictures!
Brook and her Daddy
I am going to be making some mittens after I get some elastic!

so, ok I'm new
I resurrected this thread in hopes of getting some good pointers.
I've never hunted except rabbit with a .22 when I was a kid, have never shot anything bigger than a .223 because most long guns are just too long. I'm only 5' tall and can't reach the forestock of most full size rifles. :-(
Anyway - I moved to Winnipeg this year and would love to start hunting. Can anyone point me in the right direction to get started ? As a newcomer to town, I don't know anyone except from work and none of them are the outdoorsy type. I don't do the bar scene so don't have a have that opportunity to meet folks. I've done a search for hunting clubs here in the area and there are not any that are online that I can find. I took up archery when I got here and that's fun but again, finding someone that will shepherd me or teach me how is the problem.
You all seem to know the ins and outs - I'd appreciate your comments.
Thanks in advance !

Well, for starters, try and find a trap and skeet club close to you.Although i was born in St. Boniface, it has been a zillion years since i was back ( still miss Manitoba!) so do not know who to tell you to contact, but this might help

For hunting clothes for the ladies however, Will Bilozir's wife Donna carries the Prois Apparel through one of the sponsors here,

Welcome to the forum!!! Nice to see more women getting into the sport!! I've had some pretty amazing experiences hunting and they have all happened when I've been flying solo because I want to give the "men" their space!!!
My first deer I shot at about 15 meters.... He kept walking towards me!! Lol he was a curious guy!
Last year I was hunkered down in some willows looking for my calf moose n a young buck started stomping the ground, lowered his head and fricken charged towards me!! He startled as soon as I stood up though!!
Any of you ladies hitting huntfest today?? I think I have to drag my sister there because I've got no one to go with!! The only thing she hunts is clothes n makeup so really not as fun!!
If you see me there... Please say hi!!

Congratulations to all female hunters out there. My wife started hunting when we first met seven years ago and she shot a bull mooose and went duck and goose hunting. Now with having a "little buck" it is harder to get out . Hopefully this fall she will come out for at least one trip. To all of the the female hunters out there good luck.

new to it all
Hello everyone!!
Im very new the hunting thing, so new that the most ive done is some reading. lol. Ill give you a little back story, got to go fishing this past weekend after not for somewhere around 13 years, and it got me thinking as why i never tried or got into hunting. Now i want to at least try it, hopefully its something i enjoy. Heres the kicker for me though, i dont like the taste of wild meat, so in a way seems pointless for me.
Does anyone have any advice on how to get started or stuff to read? One of my friends and my boyfriend hunt but neither seemed intreseted in showing me the ropes really.
Thanks

Welcome, nice to know there are other women that like to hunt. My boyfriend and I enjoy spending time together in the outdoors, it makes for a great date. It is so hard to find a good hunting buddy. I have bought most of my hunting clothes and boots from Cabelas online in the states. The dollor is par and stuff is so cheap as long as you know what size you need. It's important to read all the feedback on each item, it will help. Good Luck and happy hunting.

This forum will henceforth be referred to as Alberta Outdoors Persons. Somehow, I don't think Rob will approve.
