Default Bonyville AB

Looks like I might be in Bonnyville for mid/earlier Nov, and thought it might be a good opportunity to get my buck. Ill just take the camper and rifle...who knows the job allways drags on for a couple days longer then "anticipated" right?

Any thoughts on crown land? White tail or Mules?

Numbers are down but should be able to find a whitetail.
As far as mulies go......slightly better chance than a mountain goat in 502, 501 (draw).

514 is general for mule but if you get one it will probably be the last one in 514.

Thanks for the input.

Looks like a pile of crown land north of Truman. Is there decent random camping? Many hooligans from town?

I am thinking it will get busier in November but there is already more traffic than I have ever seen for this time of year.
