Hello All

Well, I am about to get out and dig into hunting more....very new to the sport. Looking for feedback on a couple of outfitters, seen some bad ones on here, but nothing specific about "good" ones unless you happen to just read something in a thread. Am I missing it, or is there a thread on outfitters and the expectations I should have?

Being new, how do you pick an outfitter?

Thanks

Steve

Mostly it depends on what game you are looking for. Some do it all and some specialize. Do you want a hard hunt or an easy one? Do you want HF or LF. You need to say what you are looking for before you get an answer.

If you live in Tucson, there's no need to search. Just call up Dave Mattausch. He and his brothers can help you with Coues, mulies, elk, and sheep......all in your neighborhood. One of the brothers has guided on Tiburon Island 16 times. They're bare bones and VERY reasonable.

With any outfitter ask for reference and call everyone they give you. Here is a great resource for hunters looking for info on outfitters/guides http://www.huntingreport.com/hunting_articles_continue_page_sale_pitch.cfm
