Alberta Legacy Hunts was founded on generations of bow and rifle hunting tradition, beginning with Allan Groves in the 1970s and continuing through Mark and McCoy today. We host a limited number of hunters each season to ensure a personal, ethical, and high-quality hunting experience from arrival to departure.

Mark Groves spent thirty years in law enforcement and retired as a decorated Commissioned Officer with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. Mark began shooting a bow at a very early age when bowhunting became his greatest passion. Mark’s dad, Allan Groves, was a master bowhunter who started guiding in the early 70’s.
Mark honors his late father by carrying on in his footsteps using his dad’s teachings and refining his own skills. Mark first became a Class A guide in 1988. Over the years, he has been a highly successful guide from the open prairies to the high country mountains. Mark has been a Boone and Crockett and Pope and Young scorer for over twenty years, so he knows how to field judge a trophy buck with just a glance.
Our exclusive private land access in a highly sought-after Alberta wildlife management unit offers the chance to pursue mature whitetails in a low-pressure environment. Combined with peak November rut activity and strong genetics, each hunt is built around an ethical, high-quality experience. At Alberta Legacy Hunts, we know it’s not always about the trophy on the wall, but the relationships built and memories of a lifetime made on the journey.
Alberta is known for producing some of North America’s most impressive whitetail deer, and our hunting area is no exception. With excellent genetics, strong age structure, and minimal hunting pressure, hunters have the opportunity to encounter mature bucks with exceptional mass and scoring potential.
Our focus on ethical, selective harvest and limited hunter numbers helps maintain the quality of the herd and the integrity of the experience. Each season brings the possibility of pursuing Pope and Young and Boone and Crockett caliber whitetails in a true fair-chase environment.
Every hunt at Alberta Legacy Hunts is fully guided and tailored to your goals, experience level, and preferred hunting style. From bowhunters chasing their first whitetail to seasoned hunters pursuing a record-book buck, we provide expert guidance, proven strategies, and a safe, ethical hunting environment.
A safe, supportive hunt designed to introduce young hunters to ethical whitetail hunting while creating lasting memories.

From first encounters with mature bucks to successful trophy harvests, our goal is to provide every hunter with a professional, ethical, and unforgettable experience.
Alberta had been on my bucket list for years — and Alberta Legacy Hunts exceeded every expectation.
From the moment I arrived in camp, I knew I was in serious hunting country. The ranch was first-class, the land was incredible, and the wildlife was everything you hope for when you book a true Alberta hunt. Big country. Big animals. No shortcuts.
Opening morning, I was blessed to take a herd bull elk — and it brought me to my knees. I’ve hunted my whole life, and I don’t say that lightly. It was one of those moments that reminds you why you fell in love with hunting in the first place.
The action never slowed down. I had a Pope & Young–class whitetail within range and watched three bull moose sparring just 15 yards from my stand. You can’t script experiences like that. The quality of animals and the density of game speak for themselves.
What truly sets Alberta Legacy Hunts apart is their professionalism. Every detail was handled — lodging, guiding, preparation, and even the process of getting my trophy home across the border. It was seamless from start to finish.
As a lifelong Arkansas whitetail hunter, I thought I understood great hunting. Alberta Legacy Hunts showed me what world-class looks like.
If you’re looking for the real deal — not hype, not promises — this is it. I’ll be back.

“My brother Mark hunts with reverence. For him, it’s not about harvesting — it’s about connection. Connection to the land, to the animals, and to something older than all of us. His respect for nature is unmatched, and that’s why he’s the best hunter and guide I’ve ever known. When you walk the wild with Mark, you gain an experience you’ll never forget — and more often than not, a trophy to remember it by.”

“If you’ve dreamed of hunting the giant Alberta whitetails but don’t know where to start or who to trust, you’re not alone. I have a dear friend who outfits for Alberta whitetails and he is as good as they get.”

I have had the pleasure of hunting with Mark. His vast knowledge of game and their habits separates him from others. I previously hunted elk for years with no success until Mark guided me in Alberta to my first bull, a dandy with the bow on the first morning! On subsequent hunts, we have taken a heavily palmated non-typical whitetail and a giant 30″ wide muley! Unforgettable!
