Hunting in BC with AlphaDog Outdoors 

Guided Hunting in BC With One of British Columbia's Best Hunting Outfitters for Canadian Moose, Elk, Deer, Black Bear, Wolf and Coyote

When Mike Hawkridge first told me about his new venture with AlphaDog Outdoors, I knew it would be something special. Mike's one of those rare breeds - a true horseman, expert guide, and the kind of person you want around a campfire. Along with his partner Shawn Murray, they've created something extraordinary in North Central British Columbia.

Canadian Moose

• Bulls pushing 55 inches
• 80-90% success rates
• September-November seasons

If you're looking for hunting in BC that'll take your breath away, their moose hunts are hard to beat. The calling during rut is something special - Mike and Shawn have perfected their techniques over decades in the bush. Whether you're glassing clear-cuts or working the edges of wetlands, the opportunities are consistent.

What sets these hunts apart is the flexibility. They can accommodate just about any hunter, regardless of physical condition. Whether you're comfortable behind a spotting scope or ready to push deep into the backcountry, they'll tailor the hunt to match your style. And when it comes to meat care and trophy prep, nobody does it better.

Elk Hunting BC

• Trophy bulls 300-360+ inches
• Six-point restriction area
• Prime rutting period hunts

The elk hunting here is something else entirely. Thanks to careful management and prime habitat, they're consistently taking bulls that'll make your heart race. Their guides have calling down to a science - if a bull can be brought in, these folks will make it happen.

British Columbia hunting outfitters don't get much better than this. During the rut, you might find yourself watching the sunrise from a strategic vantage point, listening to bulls bugling across the valley. Or maybe you'll be slipping through new growth timber, closing the distance on a herd bull. Either way, you're in for an experience you won't soon forget.

Deer Hunting

• Mule deer to 200+ inches
• Whitetails pushing 230 non-typical
• Late season opportunities

When it comes to deer, you've got options. Their area holds both muleys and whitetails, with some truly impressive specimens of each. The southern portion of their territory includes agricultural land and cattle country, creating perfect deer habitat.

They typically hunt later in the season, which means you can glass more bucks and be selective. Whether you're after a wall-hanger muley or a monster whitetail, these guys know how to get it done. The combination of private and public land access gives them flexibility to match conditions and your hunting style.

Black Bear Hunting

• Bears to 8 feet
• Color phase opportunities
• Spring and fall seasons

British Columbia guided hunts don't get much better than spring bears with AlphaDog. Their area produces some giants - we're talking 7-footers with thick, prime hides and some real monsters pushing 8 feet. Color phase bears are common, and the spring claws can be impressive enough to make you do a double-take.

The spot-and-stalk hunting here is exceptional, with clients typically glassing 6-10 bears daily. Whether you're looking for a spring hunt or fall adventure, these guys have it dialed. They're maintaining a near-perfect success rate on spring hunts, which tells you everything you need to know about their bear hunting program.

Wolf and Coyote Hunting

• Northern timber wolves year-round
• Professional calling and baiting techniques
• High success winter predator hunts

Here's something that sets AlphaDog apart - they really understand predator hunting. Most outfits treat wolves and coyotes as targets of opportunity, but Mike and his team have turned it into an art form. During spring and fall big game seasons, they include wolf tags with every hunt because you never know when an opportunity might present itself.

But it's their dedicated winter predator hunts that really shine. They've spent years perfecting their baiting and calling strategies, developing a program that consistently produces results. 

These aren't your typical predator hunts - we're talking about serious northern timber wolves and coyotes in some of the most pristine winter habitats you'll ever hunt. When Mike says "less frills, more kills," he means it. These guys have cracked the code on consistently successful predator hunting in challenging conditions.
