Reviewer Comments: Keith Hubbard’s thorough preseason scouting got us into elk right away on a very difficult late November hunt. Over the course of a five-day hunt Keith’s focus and dedication helped put me in front of four legal bulls. His attention to every detail allowed us to still hunt within 70 yards of this mature bull for a quick and humane kill. He did all this and provided a warm comfortable camp at night with good food and enjoyable conversation. It certainly was the hunt of a lifetime!

Reviewer Comments: Having hunted with other outfitters, I can honestly say that Keith Hubbard is in a class by himself. His guiding ability and experience are second to none and he truly provides a quality experience. The whitetail hunt he guided me on provided the trophy of a lifetime.

Reviewer Comments: Relentless...Thats Keith. I Drew a 2003 Kiabab early winter tag. Not the best time but still great area. I really struggled. I was inexperienced and just fell apart on two monsters Keith put me on. He encouraged me to pass on a couple smaller animals and I ended up taking a beautiful 3x3 with a drop-tine on the left side. The hunt itself was every bit of what I had imagined it would be and then some. It got hard for me because I really screwed up a couple of times but Keith never let me get discouraged. I met Keith the day he picked me up for the hunt and I felt like I was hunting with a friend. He didnt quit when I was ready to. This is what I and anyone should expect when you hire an outfitter. It's what you get with Keith and Arizona Hunting Adventures.

Reviewer Comments: Once again, Keith impressed the heck out of me. We went out for the 2004 summer/fall bear hunt. Arizona is in the middle of an awful drought subsequently the bears were not out where they normally feed. Keith had to find them and find them he did! He glassed up a bear coming down a canyon late in the evening. He said "I know how to get in that canyon from the other side" He had me on a hill the next morning and like Keith said, the bear came out of the trees at the bottom of the canyon and up the hill to go to sleep. Keith yelled "follow me!" as we raced to the crest of the hill we were on, and he set me up for the shot. One shot from my Tika 300 and the 350# bear fell. The head and cape were so heavy that Keith carried it out for me. Of the other six hunters we knew were in that area, I was, so far to our knowledge, the only one to take a bear. This is after passing up on a smaller bear opening day! Keith is an excellent guide and outfitter but, absolute most importantly, he can HUNT! I will respond to any e-mail inquiries so feel free to do so.

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.
Iowa Hunting Information
Iowa is one of the best Midwestern states for monster whitetail bucks. Non-residents must apply for a tag in their annual drawing. Archery tags are the most sought after and depending on what units you apply for generally take 2-4 years to draw.
Kansas Hunting Information
Kansas is one of the top producing monster whitetail buck states in the country. It also has some excellent turkey hunting and a few big mule deer in the western part of the state. Kansas has an excellent reputation as a top notch destination for upland birds. It has excellent populations of pheasant and quail due to the vast expanse of suitable prairie and grassland type habitat.
