LAST EDITED ON Feb-25-13 AT 04:28PM (MST)[p]I bought a private land oryx hunt for my wife as a christmas present. Seemed like a pretty good deal,supposed to be a hunt on 6500 deeded acres. We pay for the hunt wait till Jan 1 till the new off range hunt starts go to the nearest town to spend the night meet the fella and go to the ranch for a look about. We go to the headquarters and he tells us where to hunt and points out places they have killed oryx in the past. I tell him and my wife that some of that country looks familiar and that I was pretty sure I had hunted it on an off range draw public land hunt in the past.He is like thats no problem. So anyway we go back to town pay the guy our money and get ready to hunt the next morning. Morning comes and we go back to the ranch and get ready to hunt.We get on the 4 wheeler and take off as it had snowed and it was pretty slick. We go thru the corrals at headquarters where we were told to go and get up on a high spot to glass. Glass for about 45 min and see nothing. We head north toward the malapis where he told us to go as they had supposably killed several oryx in that area. We are going down the road and run into a BLM road sign stating road closed to all traffic. We stop and I tell my wife that I was pretty sure we where just about across from where we had hunted in the past. We figured we had better back out of there till we found out what was going on. We left and came home and talked to a few poeple trying to figure out what was what. Seems there is only 600 acres not 6500 on this ranch. I have contacted this guy and told him we wanted our money back. He said ok and that he would get it back to us.It has been over a month now with him jerking us around and still no money. I,m, not putting his name out there just yet because I gave him till this friday to get it to me so I am giving him till then before I out him. My question to you guys is what would you do ?
