Best Experience 12.2.12
Super experience!!!! The whole hunt exceeded my expitations. The guides and camp staff were the best. Probably the best value for your dolloar you will ever get!!! This was my first wild hog hunt and every step of the learnng curve was carfully explained to me. This lead to a very successful experience.

Boar Hunt
I recently used this guide for a 2 day boar hunt. There were 2 in my party and another party of 5 hunting. The weather was great and everyone shot at least 1 boar and many of us got 2. The sizes varied but there were some really nice boars shot. You could not shoot sows which was good future managment. I thought the lodging was good, and the owners and guide were very friendly and worked to make sure you got shooting. The price was competitive. I would use them again.

Reviewer Comments: From the time we arrived the one guide and owner gave us attitude. Not the same guy that sold us the hunt at the Harrisburg show. Guides were literally kids, one from Georgia carried a pistol illegally. No deer for three days. Said it was too hot. Set us over feeders (not my kind of hunting) and the deer wouldn't even come to them. Finally on the 4th day my buddy shot a small 4 point and I shot a doe just so we didn't go home empty handed. They boxed our meat & told my buddy his antlers were in the box. Why would we doubt them? They were not. When I sent Mr. Dale an email demanding the antlers, they arrived in the mail bloody with hair & skin still on the scull cap and stinkin to high heaven. I am shocked the post office didn't file charges. Other than supper, meals were very mediocre at best. Placed my father in law over a cotton field for 2 days and didn't see a live animal. When he asked if deer eat cotton, the guide said no. Why was he sat over the field??? Sad hunt.

Reviewer Comments: Had a super good hunt from the time we arrived right up to the time we had to leave. We hunted very hard and it all paid off. Killed three deer in five days. Killed my first buck 20 min. after being in the stand on opening day. Saw 20 bear all week as well. The hunt was a super hunt that we have booked for the 2005 Bear and Deer combo hunt in Nov.2005. Looking forward to going back in 2005. We plan to hunt each year with this fine group. You can not go wrong hunting here.

Utah Hunting Information
Utah has recently been outstanding for trophy elk, but the best tags take many years to draw. Utah does have conservation tags available for purchase that allow hunters to bypass the drawing. Given the high demand for these premium tags prices can be high. In the past Utah has been a top trophy mule deer state but recently only a handful of units consistently produce B&C caliber deer.
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.
Arizona Hunting Information
Arizona has lots of trophy big game but is probably best known for its trophy elk and mule deer. This partially due to the limited number of tags available.
