Thanks guys, I am sure a guided hunt is like anything else ... buyer beware. Had a buddy who paid $8k for a guided elk bow hunt in NM and several nights after climbing ridges all day dinner was hot dogs & beans.
What red flags or warning signs are there? I am hearing that hunters per guide is important, any thoughts on a ratio?
At least he had food. I went on a guided bear hunt once with an outfitter that said he had a brand new lodge and provided all the meals along with the hunt. When we arrived we found that the lodge hadn't been built yet and the guide only had enough food for him and his wife. After 3 days of shooting wild partridge to eat and boiled water out of the lake we bugged out!
