The team
A dynamic and friendly team
WTO & GGO is known for a world-class trophy hunting experience. With 800,000 acres of land to hunt, the success isn’t just due to luck. The hard working team is out scouting, cutting and maintaining trails, building relationships, perfecting and changing hunting locations to make sure the hunt has the best odds of success. Game management and territory expansion are some of the biggest factors of a hunt – and that takes incredible dedication by the team.
Michelle Wohlberg (Camp Manager), born and raised in Saskatchewan, she has a heart bigger than a 400 pound bear. You will recognize her with her contagious smile. Michelle was one of 10 contestants on the survival show Alone Season 6, so there is no doubt about her outdoor skills. No project is ever too big for Michelle. She has guided for most big game in Canada, and being a hunter herself, spends her time in nature with her family.
Kevin Mondoux (Chief Guide) It’s impossible to imagine the operation without Kevin pouring over land maps all season long. Never one to walk somewhere he can run, his desire to find big bucks is always on his mind. Kevin has guided for big game in the Yukon and has spent his time learning every road in our hunting concessions, so he knows exactly where to put his next bait. He spends his free time looking for massive pike to take on his fly fishing rod, maybe this year will be the year?
Barry Dowhay (Guide) has been guiding us for 14 years. Born and raised just 10 miles from camp, he knows every corner of our vast playground. Barry’s dependability is a huge asset to us, he is out there rain or shine, season after season. In the winter Barry can be found out on the ice fishing, and looking after his various grandkids.
Armando Vendittozzi (Guide) is our dedicated waterfowl guide, along with his trusty dog, Maverick. He is a real estate agent in the busy city of Montreal, coming to be a clutch player in our whitetail operation as well. You will find him out in the meat house or over by the BBQ – producing some fine fare!
