Alberta hunters can apply for special opportunities to hunt big game such as deer, elk and moose.
This year, first-time resident hunters must complete the Alberta Conservation and Hunter Education Course prior to draw application. For more details, review the 2010 Alberta Hunting Draws guide.
From the desk of the president of the Alberta Bow Hunters Association.
Hi everyone -- I represent the Alberta Bow hunters Assoc on the SRD Wildlife Management Advisory Group. It is comprised of various stakeholders and senior SRD staff - we debate the issues and pass on the position of each of our groups on these issues. We have just been presented with the attached information on 3 such issues/proposals. One in particular has significant impact on bow hunters and bow hunting. Could change the bow hunting FOREVER (and not for the good). Take the time to read the information (10 minutes), to fill out the questionnaire (3 minutes) and to send it to me (2 minutes) so I can present the voice of Alberta bow hunters to the other stakeholders and SRD at our next meeting Apr 28. If you do not have the time (15 minutes out of your day) to tell me your thoughts then I expect you to remain silent forever if things don't go well for us as bow hunters. We debated and passed out this info at our AGM/banquet this past weekend, it will be circulated throughout the province in archery shops, email lists, etc. If I get limited feedback then I am just wasting my time as well going to these meetings. This may be our only kick at the cat - make it a good one!!
If you have any thoughts or questions contact me at any time. Pass this on to fellow bow hunters. We need to make an impact NOW!
