Expo Elk Tag - Outfitter Recommendations
« on: February 16, 2023, 12:48:31 PM »
My father-in-law drew the Bull Elk Wasatch Mtn permit. He’s had a few outfitters contact him and he’s also reached out to a few himself. Most recently in discussion with some guides for Shane Scott Outfitting. Just looking for feedback and others experience with that outfitter or outfitters in the area. The good, the bad and the ugly.. Thanks for any input.

@bearpaw might guide there or have referrals.

That sounds like a great opportunity.
Nature. It's cheaper than therapy.

Best thing you could do is get contact info from the outfitters of a list of successful  and non successful clients then call hunters on that list and ask questions

The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

Yes, the Wasatch Mtns is one of the areas we hunt. I wonder if she got an archery, muzzy, or rifle permit?
@annie_oakley congrats!

FYI - I haven't heard anything negative about Shane Scotts outfit.  :twocents:

I’d check on monster muleys also if you haven’t already. You’ll get more Utah info on that site I think.

I text my buddy he drew a couple years ago and hired a outfitter. Had the time of his life and shot a great bull. He’s a member on here so he should reach out to you.
