Recommend: not if you are trophy hunting
Reviewer Comments: This is a meat hunt not a trophy hunt as I was promised. There were too many other people for a wilderness hunt. I was promised last year after a bad hunt that this year would be better--what can I say?

Overall Impression: "unguided" meat hunt
Recommend: Not for
Reviewer Comments: Assured deer/probable elk. I shed my "Guide" and had highest success (3 point buck & spike bull)One "guide" out of three not inexperienced/lazy. No hunter coordination. Clients went home without meat while guides filled out. Probably decent outfitter for drop camp, but hunting pressure high in area. Fair meat hunt if aggressive hunter. Probably better hunt for the money available. Nice people taking advantage of "dudes".

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.
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.
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.
