Pronghorn Bowhunt

Today Thomas and the crew travel to the Alberta’s Centennial City of Brooks to hunt the elusive pronghorn antelope. The plains surrounding the city of Brooks were first used by the Crow and Blackfoot first nations to hunt buffalo.

Pronghorns have excellent vision making them a difficult game animal to approach on the open prairie. Once alarmed the pronghorn is capable of speeds of up to 50 miles per hour, allowing them to easily outdistance most predators. The provincial population of pronghorns (in Sept.) routinely swings from 10,000 to 20,000 animals because of the varying severity of the winters. The Alberta prairie region marks the northernmost limit of pronghorn in North America.

Sit back and enjoy this spot-and-stalk bow hunt in the “bad lands” of Alberta.
