BEST HUNT EVER!!!!!
Art and Crystal Thompson are some of the best people out there! They run a first class operation. This was my dream hunt and they made it come true. My guide was Brad Fry and he made things go smoothly while in the mountains. I couldn't ask for a better hunt. The weather was rather hot which made me nervous. My worries were soon put to rest when we got to camp after a 5 hour horseback ride. After setting things up, we rode up the valley. We saw 2 bulls in the first couple of hours! The first full day of hunting found us glassing a 9" billy. After a lengthy climb we were in position. When the goat finally decided to stand, a single shot sent him tumbling down the mountain. I was pumped! A 9" nine year old billy was going home with me! Day two brought us the pleasure of glassing some cows, calves and several bulls. After a while the one I wanted made his way to the clearing. After watching him bed, we started the stalk. It took a while to get near him. After a couple of hours he finally moved out of the willows. He was sparring with a smaller bull. He then made his way to an open area where another single shot put him to the ground! I was on cloud nine!!! I couldn't wait to get over there. When we finally got to him it was nothing but celebration! Two full days of hunting and two trophies! Beautiful country and great people. It doesn't get any better than that! Art has the best area and some great animals. Brad has a great eye for finding them. The trip was perfect from start to finish! And I had a freezer full of meet to take home with me! Feel free to contact me with any questions. You can't go wrong with Art!

Parnet took a superb 49 inch with 36 points. Plenty of Goats was looking for a 9 plus, and let plemty of smaller billies go, Caribou were scarce but, paarter took a snaller one with double shovels. Guides were great. Art and Crystal do run a world class outfit. Highly recommend you hunt with them, also alot of quality Stone Sheep if you up for this...

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.
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.
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.
