I totally get what stompy is saying. One reason they say you tip is because guides don't make great money and a majority of the money goes to the owner or outfitter. And yes if a owner at a bar is the bartender pouring drinks I would tip. But I usually don't spend $5000 at the bar. Lol

I'll tip a guide, but not an outfitter.

As a rule of thumb, is the owner/outfitter is guiding you, you tip nothing. Only tip the help. The owner/outfitter is already getting paid for your hunt. If it's a deal when a so called guide drops me off at a stand and that's it, his tip won't be much. For me a guide has to work for his tip. SO! your saying if the guide is owner or partnered owner, a tip is not or should not be expected, okiehuntr Correct. If they want a tip they should have factored it into the hunt cost. I just tip the help, just got back from an Elk hunt and I tipped the guide, the packers and the cooks.
