I have been Elk hunting now for 20 plus years and try to go on a quality elk hunt every year ,i am a working guy with a family and have to save like crazy to be able to.
Several years ago i hunted in Utah cwmu elk , for the first time with an outfitter that was recommended by Carters hunting service.
The hunt cost me 8500.00 and was totally misrepresented by Carters and the Outfitter i spoke with.
I was told it was a 330 -350 class elk hunt out of a nice lodge,
in 5 days neither myself or the 3 other hunters in camp saw a
bull over a spike .
all 3 of the hunters left empty handed and all agreed it was a horrible experience.
There was no shower, and the lodge was a shack, the food was horrible and the guides were first year hunters who knew nothing about elk.elk calling , scent elimination.
I also found out i paid a 1,000 more than the others as a fee to Carters for the referal to the outfitter.
It was all about MONEY
When i asked carters they lied and said no they did not receive a fee until i pushed the issue and finally said it was a smal fee.
I finally drew my tag this year for the Wasatch but i am so gun shy what do i do ????
Does anyone know an honest outfitter ????
PLEASE HELP> THANKS
