Reviewer Comments: I hunted with Nelson Cole in 2002 & 2003. First year passed on a couple of "smallish" bears 150-200 lbs., hoping for something larger. Did not kill a bear. Second year, a bumper berry crop made bait hunting difficult because bears would lay up in the berry patches all day and visit baits only at night. Bears were killed both years by other hunters in camp. Nelson is willing to move hunter if he's not happy w/ stand or not seeing game. Accommodations are split between lake-side cottages & a lodge building. A casual affair where each party prepares their own meals. Will hunt with Nelson in the future, he works hard for his clients & treats you like a friend.

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.
Illinois Hunting Information
Illinois is widely known as a top trophy whitetail destination. Illinois also has some great waterfowl hunting, especially in southern portions of the state.
