Not many. All we need to do is buy the hunting tag and away we go ourself.

Now, it might not always be as easy as that. Especially if I wanted to go shoot a moose in the Yukon. But for $61.75 I can be on my way to shoot a moose in Manitoba.

I just cant believe there are no Canadians buying hunts. Even if he discounted the hunts by 30% he is still generating income. They could easily make it thru the yr. I have seen some of his shows that had Canadian clients.

Shows are made for TV. Just remember very little reality in these shows. Made to push products and people. Also his hunts are very high end, your paying for his name lol

As of a few years ago, Shockey ran moose/ caribou hunts in central Newfoundland, in the Long Range Mountains. He sold his hunts at almost double the going rate of most outfitters in the area.

Conference meetings are slated for XXYZ day and free time is on your own. Creative tax writing for some of the Upper Crust to enjoy themselves. The Outfitters have to have on their webpage a key word " Conference Rooms available" for the Canadian tax system.

50k for a hunt. That is some expensive meat.
