STAG HILL HUNTING CAMP
STAG HILL HUNTING CAMPis located in Wildlife Management Area 3 in Newfoundlands Northern Interior. This vast hunting area offers some of the best hunting you will experience anywhere.
I have been in the outfitting business for 26 years and have been guiding hunters and fishermen for about thirty years. With the help of an experienced guiding staff, every effort will be made to make your trip a successful and enjoyable one. The campsite consist of two cabins, the main cabin which can accommodate four hunters per week, has a washroom , two double occupancy bedrooms, kitchen where meals are prepared and served by a full time cook. It is equipped with electric generator and mobile phone. The second cabin is the living quarters for guides and the cook.
Boats and motors are used to travel to different areas around the lake but the main means of travel while hunting is walking. When hunting it is important to locate a high view point at which to sit and glass the area, spot and stalk the animals, during the rut animals can be called into shooting range. The average shooting distance is about two hundred yards. The most common rifles used are the 30-06, 270, 7mm, and 300mgm.
