Reviewer Comments: I have used Clay Pope's expertise twice now and I've yet to be let down. He has been professional as well as his other guides. I have harvested 5 animals of different species and he has excellent knowledge of all.I would recommend Clay for any type hunting if he says that he can find the animal for you. He has the greatest land in which to hunt as well. I like being a part of what Clay does for me and have the utmost respect for he and his guides. Thanks Clay.

Reviewer Comments: Booked a 3 day turkey and 3 day hog and javelina combination hunt. We started the hunt with hunting turkey in the hill country. We were not having any success so he moved us to South Texas to start on hogs and javelina and continue hunting turkey. Needless to say we hunted turkeys for 5 days till we got 2 birds each and hunted hogs and javelina 4 days. He moved us twice to get on birds and was going to move us a third time if we had not started to get birds. Clay knows the game you are after and will bend over backwards to get the animals you came for. Highly recommend Pope Brothers if you are heading to Texas.

Reviewer Comments: Hunted whitetail, hogs, & axis deer with my 13-year-old son in South Texas & Hill Country. Clay & his staff definitely aim to please, took 2 nice whitetail bucks on first 2 days of hunt, could have shot many more if I could have found a way to get the meat back home. My son also shot a trophy size hog & a meat hog, once again, could have taken many more. Tried for axis deer on the last day of hunt; unfortunately none of the many we saw came within shooting range. Nice people, plenty of game, fair rates-can't wait to go back to Texas again. Clay even assisted with shipping my trophies back home to take to the taxidermist.

Reviewer Comments: Outstanding guide offering bobcat,coyote, & fox hunts. Javalina may be added for a kill fee or hunted separately. Exotics & deer hunts also available. On a 3 day hunt I killed 2 bobcats & had shooting opportunities for 3 times this quantity. Guide is an excellent predator caller & knows how to bring in the predators. Packages include food, lodging, & complete trophy preperation. South Texas cats are reported to be among the most beautiful color of bobcats.

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.
Ontario Hunting Information
Ontario is often considered a sportsman's paradise. This large province contains huge sections of wilderness, filled with thousands of lakes that provide excellent habitat for Canada moose and black bear. Excellent fishing for walleye, northern pike, muskie, smallmouth bass and other species can often be combined with a hunt. From spike camps to 5-star lodges, there are lodges, guides and outfitters for every adventure and every taste.
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.
