For those interested in a relaxed hunting tempo, the great wingshooting sport offered by our Ptarmigan hunting is ideal.  These upland game birds are by far our most popular in Newfoundland.  Willow Ptarmigan.JPG (465358 bytes) There are two different types, the Willow Ptarmigan and the Rock Ptarmigan, and all our lodges provide hunting for both on the predominantly barren grounds that they normally inhabit.  As our facilities are remotely located, hunting pressure  in our immediate areas is very low, and is almost exclusively reserved for our guests.

The most effective method of pursuing these birds is with pointing dogs, of which there are many popular types, with the English, Irish and Gordon setters being the among the most frequently used in NL. There are many other breeds which are also well suited to our ptarmigan, that will normally hold for point.    Just to watch an eager, well trained setter work the grounds is a delight by itself.  To the most dedicated ptarmigan hunters, bagging birds is only secondary.              SandyPtarmigan.JPG (69950 bytes)

There is unlimited terrain available on which our clients can hunt, but some of the best is situated fairly close to our lodges.  At Grey River, we have limited use of an ATV which gives some added mobility, while at Rocky Ridge, we have the use of boats on a large lake, which gives easy access to a vast amount of country.

At present, weSnoop with hunters.JPG (56548 bytes) welcome our clients to bring their own.  Access to our areas is as shown on the map provided.

The report is now in on hunting season for 2011.   Please check in at Hunt News for details of our guests latest hunting experience, including a photo sample. 

At present, there remains opportunity for ptarmigan hunting at our lodges for 2011, but available space is sure to disappear quickly as both big and small game hunters select their hunting periods.
