Trophy Whitetail Hunting
Manitoba Whitetail Deer Hunts
Our remote and wilderness Manitoba Whitetail Deer Hunts take place on the South Side of the “World Famous” Duck Mountains. The Duck mountains are located in the west-central part of Manitoba, along the Manitoba/Saskatchewan border. This is home to some of the largest whitetails in North America. This prime whitetail deer habitat consists of private grain/alfalfa fields, heavy timber, creeks, swamps, and ridges, where big timber meets agriculture, making this some of the best whitetail hunting in the world.
What to Expect with Agassiz Outfitters
Hunting is done from a large double ladder tree stand, single ladder stand, portable stand with a bag, or from a ground blind. Portable heaters are available if required. Shots can be up to 300+ yards with the average being approximately 100 yards. At Agassiz Outfitters we hunt big trophy whitetail deer over scrape lines, rub lines, funnels, heavy deer trails, swamps, old logging cuts, and private leased farmland. The opportunity to harvest a trophy whitetail is approximately 80-85%. The average whitetail you may harvest is in the 135-145” class, however much bigger are taken every year. In our whitetail area of the province only; hunters can harvest two timber wolves at no extra cost and is included in your Manitoba Whitetail Deer Hunting package. Bow, Muzzleloader, or Rifle hunts are available during the whitetail hunting season. We start with archery and muzzleloader hunts on the first Monday of November. The second Monday kicks off our three-week Rifle season. All hunts are six days in duration starting on Monday thru Saturday, with Sunday set aside for travel and your arrival into camp.

Manitoba offers such tremendous whitetail deer hunting opportunities. The key in my mind for great whitetail hunting is simply age. Deer need to live long enough to get big. When you look at the vastness of Manitoba and the sheer number of deer and the lack of hunting pressure, this combination of age and genetics really makes Manitoba special. What makes outfitters in Manitoba special in my opinion is the sheer acreage in which outfitters can hunt. You can tell these deer haven't been pressured and or have had a lot of contact with hunters. Compared to many outfitters in the U.S where hunting is sometimes confined to much smaller acreages on what can be expensive leases, we have been intrigued by the hunting in this province ever since we started hunting it. I believe Manitoba deer hunting can fly under the radar because compared to some other provinces, you can't bait in Manitoba, but I believe that is a blessing in disguise. Manitoba gets overlooked and the reality is that I would rather hunt a travel corridor or scrape line during the rifle and muzzleloader seasons which coincide with the rut and pre rut. The folks at Agassiz Outfitters have a tremendous amount of experience hunting whitetails in Manitoba. They have a reputation for providing quality big game hunting opportunities in Manitoba whether you hunt deer, moose or black bears. This region of Manitoba where they are located simply has all the ingredients for numbers of deer. The edge where crop land starts and the Canadian bush stops, a mix of cover, big woods, swamps and agriculture, lots of rejuvenated woody browse, rolling terrain features that concentrate or define deer movement. Knowledge of deer patterns and movements, personable hard-working guides that have done a lot of preparation before you arrive... all the successful ingredients for a top shelf outfitter. The lodging was very comfortable, the conversations and home cooked meals at the end of the day were the perfect cap to each hunt. We highly recommend Agassiz Outfitters.

Boasting a land mass of just under 65 million hectares and a population of less than1.5 million people, Manitoba provides plenty of space for a buck to reach a ripe old age and as any savvy whitetail hunter knows, age is one of the three magic ingredients to growing a truly magnificent buck. The other two being nutrition and genetics.
As for nutrition, the province of Manitoba annually plants nearly 12 million acres of grain and oil grain crops. To put this in perspective, the entire state of West Virginia is slightly over 15million acres. That equates to a lot of full bellies. The whitetail territory hunted by Agassiz Outfitters is located in the western part of the province, a stones throw from it's border with Saskatchewan meaning that these truly western Canadian whitetails posses all of the same desired physical qualities as their cousins from further west.
While hunting whitetails with Agassiz outfitters you'll be hunting in a unique environment. It is located on the boundary between a vast timbered wilderness and a huge expanse of farm land. This provides bucks with all the groceries they require and the room to avoid human interactions with little or no effort. With Agassiz you'll not only have the potential to shoot the buck of a lifetime but you'll be treated like family. With cozy cabins and hot home cooked meals. You'll be well fed and well rested for each days hunt.
Each evening after dinner you'll share tales of the days adventures as well as those of hunts past with your new friends. You'll spend your days in well placed, well scouted stand and blind locations, each one meticulously chosen for it's trophy potential.
Manitoba has the potential to produce the next world record whitetail and Agassiz Outfitters is working hard to make that dream come true for some lucky hunter. Maybe you.
I personally recommend Agassiz Outfitters to all of my friends.

Agassiz Ethics Rule
We feel it is extremely important and take great pride in properly managing our areas so that all guests of ours have an opportunity at a quality mature whitetail , therefore once a hunter has shot at a moose/bear/deer, that part of the hunt is deemed successful unless it is absolutely clear that the animal wasn’t wounded. Every attempt will be made to recover wounded animals. How to judge black bears(boars/sows), size, etc. and proper shot placement will be gone over at camp prior to your hunt to ensure your success.
Manitoba Wolf Hunt
An added bonus to your Manitoba Whitetail Deer hunting trip is the good possibility at a timber wolf or coyote with your unused big game tag in the fall, which some big game hunters consider a timber wolf a great trophy! In our area of the province only; deer hunters can harvest 2 timber wolves.
Some of our Whitetail Deer hunters get some great opportunities and on average 3-5 are taken each year.

From The Agassiz Archives -1971
Pictured here is our youngest son Jordan who is holding his grandfathers (My Dad's - Gerry Liske) whitetail taken back in 1971. This huge whitetail was taken from the Roblin, Manitoba area and the same area we operate and run our deer hunts in Manitoba. This Magnificent Manitoba Whitetail scored an amazing 208 5/8 B&C and ranked in the top 10 Non-Typical, in the Province for many years. To this day it still ranks in the top 50 in Manitoba for a Non-Typical. This huge Non-Typical was believed to have been on his down side as they had found his sheds the spring before that were more bigger and scored well over 240 Non-Typical! Once again, this just shows you and proves the amazing genetics we have in our whitetail area of Manitoba!
**Note:
When we owned and did taxidermy full time (Agassiz Taxidermy) we had the opportunity to re-do the mount using a new form and cape. This was done in 1998.
