Would like to call in a wolf and try calling in some big cats.( back up with the cats.) Calling in jackels and hyenas would be a blast .
And a grizzly.

I think Alaska. But much more realistic and possible in near(ish) future would be a canoe-in hunt for moose here in Ontario. Just need the time off and a little more money than I've got - which would be "any" ;-)

I'd say I'd probably want to go to Alaska for a 2-3 month hunt/fish/camp excursion.  I've never really been interested in African game but a nice 2-3 month safari in Australia would also be super fun.

I think if time and money were not a factor I would start at one end of north american and hunt my way to the other end. There is so much game I have not had a chance to hunt I could keep busy chasing them for a long time.

Yep that's the one!

Also...Having been to Ray's a couple of times brought back so many memories of growing up in NC. I love those woods/swamps! My other dream then would be to buy some property along the Savannah River, build a small camp/home and spend my days hunting pigs.

For everybody dreaming about hunting off horseback, it is not all that great.  You spend most of your time taking care of the horses every day rather than hunting. They are great for getting way back in and out, but at that point you get a LOT more hunting in on foot!

Hopefully that tidbit I learned over a decade ago on one of MY dream hunts will help somebody in refining theirs.

I would choose a pack in elk hunt in the western US.  State doesn't matter, just the experience of pack in and do-it-yourself!

Alaskan/BC moose float trip and a very close second would be Elk hunting with T Bar M in SW Colorado.

Trad Moose Hunt in the Yukon. Did it with Shockey and a wheel bow in 2005. Love to try again with Traditional Bow.

Take care ,Randy
