Hi gang,
My 2 brothers and I are interested in a guided elk hunt any time after mid-September of this year, and I'd appreciate recommendations on guides. At this point I'd be willing to consider any state if the guide service is top-notch. I realize I have missed the AZ draw but perhaps that is not a problem if the guide is able to draw for out-of-state client tags. We are looking for a fully equipped, licensed, professional outfitter, and a non-enclosed hunt. Using horses or quads would be preferable to long hikes because unlike me, my brothers do not think climbing a mountain with a pack on your back is fun (go figure!)
You can either PM me or post to this thread if you know a good guide.
Also, I'm going to be asking for additional references once I contact the guide, and I'll be doing my own due diligence before I lay out any of our hard-earned money. So if the guide is at all defensive or takes umbrage at me asking success rates or what zones they hunt, it would be best not to bother responding. Just so no one wastes anyone's time, I'm sayin'...
Thanks so much!
