Specific Hunting Adventures

Guide and Outfitter Zane Mirfin, of Strike Adventure Ltd, has a huge repertoire of potential hunting adventures for your enjoyment and success. Every adventure is unique and no two hunting trips are ever the same. We can design you a custom hunting adventure based on your requirements, ability, mobility, experience, budget, time constraints, and available seasonal  resources.

Listed here are specific hunting adventures that are a starting point to the services that we offer. It is not the full offering because most of our hunting trips are custom designed in consultation with our hunters. Some of these hunts can be combined together for two or more species.
