Never Go to Montana

Worst Outfitters that I have seen. Horses that kick each other and the riders riding them. Tents that have holes in the roof. Wood stoves that leak smoke in your tents. Burnt food. Cheap food. Inexperienced guides. One got lost with a hunter ( thank goodness for radios). Our hole group only saw 6 elk the whole trip. There were 4 of us that never saw an elk. Lots of wolves. Gudies never scouted area.

Reviewer Comments: This is a true wilderness pack-in hunt. The country is very rugged (Scapegoat Wilderness). You really should be in good physical shape for this hunt. I was there for the first week of the second rifle season. The weather was unseasonably warm and I believe effected game movement but we still seen some deer & elk most days, including a trophy mule deer and a few nice bulls. I was fortunate enough to take a beautiful 6x6 bull elk.

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.

Manitoba Hunting Information

Manitoba is known as a top destination for avid waterfowl hunters. Huge flocks of ducks and geese can be found from the Arctic coast of Hudson Bay to the prairie potholes on the southern border of this Canadian province. There is no legal requirement for non-resident waterfowl hunters to use a guide, but many are available and a high percentage of non-Canadian hunters utilize them. In addition black bear, Canada moose and whitetails are hunted throughout the province.
