Mild
winters and ideal feed conditions have strengthened New Brunswick's deer
population and the numbers have rebounded tremendously. New Brunswick is known
for it's quality White-tail bucks and experts agree that the next world
record could easily come out of New Brunswick.
New Brunswick deer are well known for their heavy
body mass where 250lbs is not uncommon and 300 + lbs is not unheard of.
There are also known for antler mass with several scoring in the top 10
Boone & Crocket in the last decade. We offer both firearms and bow
hunting for white-tails.
We are not going to lie and tell you there is a deer
behind every tree, there isn't. You also won't see the number of deer
that you would on a hunting ranch. However, if you value quality over
quantity, and want a chance at taking a Record Book Buck at Kelly's
Sporting Lodge,
contact us for information about our deer hunts.

The buck above, taken at Kelly's Sporting Lodge in
1999. It is the New Brunswick
Record White-tail Buck and was shot less than 1 mile from the lodge.
Known as the "Could Have Been Buck", a few less deductions and it would
have been the World Record
White-tail.
