About the Outfitter:
This outfitter learned about the elk migration pattern at an early age and knew that you had to have mountain private land as well as land in the valley if you wanted to hunt elk, deer and antelope during all seasons.
This is your outfitter, a man that has probably seen more elk drop at a shot then most of us have ever seen anywhere at any time. His properties are vast and cover multiple units.
This hunt uses more team work and hunt coordination to make each hunter in the group successful. The guide will coordinate the hunt and the locations of each hunter to post in an area or walk through an area to provide shots from the elk moving away from the hunters and to those posted in specific areas. This works well if some enjoy walking where others are better at staying in a location they have been placed to receive the pushed elk.
There is one very important rule here and it is that the hunters must follow the guide’s direction. To be effective as a guide and successful as a hunter the guide must be able to have the cooperation of all members. In all situations some hunter will get shots while others don’t. That is the nature of the hunt but in multiple days all should be able to see elk and weather they tag out or not depends on their shooting skill. The guide has year and year of elk hunting in general and years on this property. He knows not only the ground but the way the elk usually move through the draws and gullies when in the migration corridor or fleeing from danger. This skill and knowledge is essential to continue to have the high success that this special hunt provides.
