An Adventure
Well, they guaranteed us an adventure and that is what we got. The hunt had a little of everything from spike camping in a tent, hiking through swamps, climbing shale mountains, glassing, getting wet, waking up to frozen boots, some amazing views, plenty of game to see from high vantage points, close encounters, and on and on. I was able to come back with a 62.5" 33pt Bull and the 500+ pounds of meat that he wore. So overall was a success. I personally didn't see any other game such as wolf, caribou, wolverine or bears, but say plenty of moose (our primary target). The real only negative is the 2 days I spent hiking and repairing their side by side atv which had two broken axles. I am on the fence whether I consider it part of the adventure that I signed up for....but we got my moose the next day.

Reviewer Comments: This was my first sheep hunt, everything went excellent, I had my Ram in two days. The hunt was very well organized!! There were sheep everywhere, I flew in with 7 other hunters and all were done way before the hunt was over. From what I saw I would defiantly recommend this hunt.

Wyoming Hunting Information
Wyoming is a great state for hunters! It offers a wide variety of good big game, turkey, small game, upland and predator hunting.
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.
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.
