I've always wanted to do griz or moose...but the very first hunt would have to be rabbit with my dad and son

how about Bear Quest with Tom Phillips.

He may not have a slot left....but if you want to go on a low cost trip that will be remembered forever- that's the trip I'd recommend.

I would second Ray's reccomendation on Bear Quest. I'm going back for my second trip in 2011. Even if there are no current openings, there is normally some last minute shuffling on this trip... [thumbsup]

The absolute top on my list is an Alaskan wilderness dropcamp caribou hunt when my sons old enough. I just hope he wants to go with me when he is. Second would be semi guided horseback elk. Think hard cause you sure deserve it!!

How about Sika deer in Maryland? Check out Muddy Marsh outfitters...quality hunt that will not break the bank and is pretty close to home.

Lots of other good ideas above also.

There is also the Trad Gang Solana hunt...it is filled this year but would be a great hunt for 2011.

Also have the Texas Sweat and Pig Gig which many Trad Gangers attented.

For a southern boy, I'd say a nice north woods black bear hunt would be just the thing, the guides tend the baits and stands. All ya gotta do is get there with your Thermacell and your bow and shoot a big one.

Since Spring Bear will be the first available season after I return I'm leaning toward a Spring Bear Hunt. Keep the suggestions coming.

As can be already seen, we all have our own dreams of what makes the best trip ever. Would need to know a little more about what you consider special in a trip. Do you like to sit in a stand or spot and stalk? Nice accomodations, or are you good with a small tent in the middle of nowhere? Physically demanding hunt, or one in which you can relax and enjoy yourself? What is more attractive to you, mountains or deep forest?

There are so many options for fantastic hunts, it would be hard to pick one for someone else. That being said, if someone told me that I had only one more hunt to take the rest of my life, for me it would be a toss up between an Alaskan caribou hunt or elk in New Mexico.

Thanks for your service - you deserve the best trip you can imagine!
