Reviewer Comments: I booked 8 guys, we were told we all should get a chance at 130 class buck no one seen a buck of that class there were other guys in camp that done good but I found out that they had hunted with him a lot and spend a lot of money with him. We were going to stay in a cabin but when we got there it was not ready so we stayed in motel for two days then had move. He treated us like we were a problem. best buck we killed gross 122! Donnie is full of lies!!!

Reviewer Comments: The staff, lodging, meals, stands and quantity of game was everything a client could dream of. If someone is looking for an all around good hunting trip this is the place to go. I am now a hunting consultant for Donnie, and my job is to find honest hard working outfitters and I've been to many places, and work with many outfitters across the world. These guys want every client to leave camp with a trophy deer, and they will work their butts off to do just that.

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.
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.
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.
