Selecting a Quad for Hunting

Now that you have decided that using a quad will be a useful addition to your hunting equipment, how are you going to traverse the multitude of information that the manufacturers will throw at you in order to entice you to choose their machine.

Mule Deer & the Chinook

Mule deer don’t like the south-westerly wind that blows over the Rocky Mountains in southern Alberta… As the aircraft flew from the west, preparing to descend into Calgary, I looked out the window to see the Rockies, the foothills and the plains to the west were covered in white, all the way to the horizon.
