Never Go to Montana
Worst Outfitters that I have seen. Horses that kick each other and the riders riding them. Tents that have holes in the roof. Wood stoves that leak smoke in your tents. Burnt food. Cheap food. Inexperienced guides. One got lost with a hunter ( thank goodness for radios). Our hole group only saw 6 elk the whole trip. There were 4 of us that never saw an elk. Lots of wolves. Gudies never scouted area.

Reviewer Comments: This is a true wilderness pack-in hunt. The country is very rugged (Scapegoat Wilderness). You really should be in good physical shape for this hunt. I was there for the first week of the second rifle season. The weather was unseasonably warm and I believe effected game movement but we still seen some deer & elk most days, including a trophy mule deer and a few nice bulls. I was fortunate enough to take a beautiful 6x6 bull elk.

Iowa Hunting Information
Iowa is one of the best Midwestern states for monster whitetail bucks. Non-residents must apply for a tag in their annual drawing. Archery tags are the most sought after and depending on what units you apply for generally take 2-4 years to draw.
Saskatchewan Hunting Information
Saskatchewan is home to giant whitetails and skies filled with waterfowl. Saskatchewan is located in the northern part of the central flyway and harbors huge numbers of migrating ducks and geese. Canada moose and black bear are plentiful. Hundreds of outfitters are available to provide whatever kind of hunt a guy or gal needs.
New Mexico Hunting Information
New Mexico is one of the top destinations for trophy Elk and Antelope hunting. Draw odds can be tough depending on the unit but landowner tags are also available for those who don't draw. Mule Deer are plentiful but generally of average size. Only a couple of units and reservations consistently produce big muleys.
