Fun, honest, reasonable archery elk hunt
Darren Dunham runs a family oriented hunt. We stayed in his lodge by his house. His wife (great cook) cooked our meals and his family ate with us. The elk are medium size 230 to 320 range. I had action on bulls 4 different times, screwed them up each time, grin. His guides are knowledgeable. We would go to a hunting area in one of his fleet of jeep wagoneers and then hike, bugle, cow call, what fun! I even saw a bull moose at 30 yards one morning. To really enjoy the hunt its impotant to be in shape.

Archery Elk
This was my first Elk hunt. Ty did a great job preparing us for the hunt via phone and mail prior to the trip, he was waiting at the airport to pick us up as promised, accomodations and food were excellent, they had a precise plan for each day and we saw Elk. Almost everyone had an opportunity and three or four of the eight in camp that week took Elk.I unfortunately lost one and was crushed, we exhausted every effort to find him but we were hit by 8 inches of snow during the search and failed. Ty could see my dissapointment and determination and actually praised me for the concern I showed for the Elk (said he does not see that enough out of hunters, sad). Overall I had a great experience and thought Ty and the group were great people. We rotated guides each day and some were better than others. It is big country and you should be physically prepared although they make it as easy as possible with the logging road system and 4 wheel drive vehicles. While others napped during mid day we were able to hunt Mule deer (small bucks and does mostly)and my buddy and I each took a Mule Deer doe. We also caught some small Trout right in camp. There was a solid population of Elk there and saw some beautiful 6x6's that most would be proud of.

Kansas Hunting Information
Kansas is one of the top producing monster whitetail buck states in the country. It also has some excellent turkey hunting and a few big mule deer in the western part of the state. Kansas has an excellent reputation as a top notch destination for upland birds. It has excellent populations of pheasant and quail due to the vast expanse of suitable prairie and grassland type habitat.
Colorado Hunting Information
Colorado is one of the best western states for trophy mule deer hunting and has the largest population of elk in the west.
