Here's a couple big wolves I have got, shot a lot more but these ones are the biggest. My grey wolf was mounted by Brian Dobson (Artistic Taxidermy). It scored better than 15th in the world (SCI) when I had him scored.
I shot him in 2003 in the neck with my .270 win 150 grain grand slam at 220 yds and the bullet never exited, which was good for the mount.

The pig weighed 510lbs. We had to load him and then take him to a truck weigh scale, weighed truck with and without him. I have two uncles that have both shot a pig that was just as big as this guy. Just thought I would send you some wolf and pig pics because you dont see many.

Heres a pic to compare that wolf with a coyote. He green scored over 17" - not quite as big as my grey one but a fine wolf.

This is a pic of my 7 year old.

This was his first time fly fishing and he reeled in a 23 inch rainbow trout. This is a day he will never forget, nor will we.

I just thought I would send a pic because I am so proud of my first bear taken with a bow. We were in Peers, Alberta with McLeod Outdoor Adventures and Jim and Vickie Henderson do an amazing job with baiting. We didnt see too much because of the snow but as soon as we got back there were six more barrels hit so we are going back up this fall for a wolf hunt and a bear hunt next spring.

This is my first whitetail and I shot him in WMU 312. Our hunting party had been hunting all week for elk moose and deer. My dad's friend had shot a 5x5 bull elk and my grandpa had shot a 48" bull moose on the last day of the trip. I was pretty disappointed that I didnt get anything but my luck changed. When we arrived back at the trucks we loaded our horses and out of nowhere comes a herd of about 30 whities and one good 4x3 buck. so I snuck through the rye field and got within 75 yards and started shooting with my 243 win. The first shot was dead on.

It was November 9th at 2 pm when I was walking a ravine in WMU 334, a ravine I never bothered with before due to the lack of cover so I thought. But being mid afternoon, I decided to walk it just to see if I could see any signs of tracks. The wind was blowing into the ravine and everything was against me, so I thought, but I persisted anyway, when out of the blue my buck jumped up from a little clump of willows and started to run. I blew on my grunt call and he stopped just long enough to get a shot off and down he went. Normally I never go to this spot but the weekend before we saw a huge buck from the road and it was only about a half mile away. This is my first true buck I have shot and I honestly could hardly breath when I walked up to him. I will be getting the score back from him when I get the mount back and he will be going on my wall.

I have been hunting since I can remember with a rifle but in 2006 took up bowhunting. To anyone that has not bowhunted it is the most amazing feeling when you get something with your bow. I live by Pigeon Lake, Alberta and I have a few places I like to hunt but one I have been trying to get permission on for quite sometime now. The problem with permission is that the person that owns the land has four sons and three of them are big hunters. I am friends with all of them so they always bug me that I can't hunt there, that was until I got a bow. I finally asked the second oldest brother if it would be okay for me to hunt with my bow on their land because none of them bow hunt. He was good with this mainly because it's a bow and they have no faith in a bow. So I got my stand hung up and put out my trail camera and waited for opening day. When it finally came around I could not hunt much because of a new job. The season started on the 3rd of September and I did not get into my stand until the 12th. So there I am the first night I have hunted for the season I got in my stand about 4:00 and right around seven o'clock I could hear something coming up behind me. At first I thought it was just a coyote. It took about 45 minutes to show its face and as it got closer I could tell it was a nice buck. I had to wait another 15 minutes for him to come into shooting range and he finally did. I shot and down he went. To make an already long story short the brothers were happy but not happy for me - they have never got a deer that big on their own land and I guess I will have to wait and see if I ever get to hunt that stand again.
