COLORADO #141- ELK HUNT 90-100% SUCCESS RATE
| 
This is an outfitter we have worked with for many years, always with high elk success. Normally 90-100%!! On the ground!
A well know Colorado outfitter who also had a Ranching for Wildlife operation just folded, and this operator has taken it over, basically doubling his operation! He went 82 bulls for 82 hunters last year and has now acquired a bunch of additional land. Under the RFW program, all hunts are free range, but the ranch controls dates and issues the licenses. Means you can often rifle hunt during bugle, or hunt late or at just about any time that is available. Extreme success. Hunts are 5 days, with Lodging, 2X1 guiding and meals near the Steamboat area. If you want to be sure of taking a bull this is tailor made.
This is a hunt you can do every year, no tags to draw for any season! That means you can rifle hunt while they're bugling.
We are great fans of bugling elk- kinda like when they bugle saying "Hey- I am right over here!"
This hunt will be $6950 Sept.1-Oct. 15 and $6500 for the rest of the season. These are Colorado elk and you will be looking at about a 280" average score. The range is 250 to about 310. Very nice lodging and meals. Just book it, pay the deposit and go.
It does help to be in reasonable shape to reach the bigger bulls quickly in the mountains, but most folks can succeed here, as last year proved. At one point he was something like 500 elk for 515 hunters- something like that! Your choice of weapon.

WYOMING #96- YELLOWSTONE MULIE ADVENTURE
| 
We consider this one of our best values for mule deer. A lot of bang for your buck here. This outfitter offers fully guided, 2 x 1, 5-day horseback hunts near Yellowstone Park's Eastern Boundary that are a real bargain. The lodge sits only a few miles from Yellowstone's eastern border. The classic Western main lodge and a series of rustic cabins are comfortable, meticulously clean and complete with baths. The nearest big town is historic Cody, WY about an hour from the lodge.
Here is a recent quote from a summer visitor to the facilities:
"This is a great lodge with internet access and a fabulous dining room with outstanding food - every meal we had was first class, from the tasty breakfasts to our superb evening meals."
5 day hunt $3495 2X1 guiding meals, and lodging included. The season starts in mid-October and runs into mid-November.
 You will hunt migrating mule deer in the late pre-rut. Like any migration hunt, this one is weather dependent, but Mother Nature is usually obliging, and snow and weather make the deer move to lower elevations. With a little luck and perseverance, hunters are able to intercept some of these magnificent bucks. In 2012, conditions were nearly ideal. Trophy bucks were on the move from their summer range. A couple local hunters in the area took several muley bucks in excess of 200-inches and one 240-inch giant. Now no-one can guarantee you giant deer, but the chance is there, and normally you can expect 100% opportunity on mature bucks in the 160-inch and up range. You can kill a monster here, but conservative estimates are that you should be able to harvest a mature buck in the 160- to 175-inch class at a minimum. Snow helps and by late September at this altitude a wintery mix is a common. 5 day hunts $3495 2X1 guiding meals, and lodging included. info@worldwide-hunts.com |

"I hunted with them in July 2013. It was my first trip to Africa. I hunted lioness, gemsbok, impala and zebra. Let my just start by saying what a first class organization this is! They bend over backwards to make you feel at home. Just such a professional and impressive outfit. My PH and the team took care of both me and my wife from start to finish. He was always available and even before my hunt he was always willing to answer my questions in a timely and kind manner. He treated us like a member of his family. I will never hunt with another outfit in Africa!" - Matt K.

 These grizzly hunts will be 1x1 hunts in both spring and fall. They do these grizzly hunts right in the heart of the caribou's calving grounds where the grizzlies are highly concentrated. These bears actually live here year round but are normally widely spread out over a vast area. But, during the Spring because there of this super-high-quality food
source the bears are present in excellent numbers, and the extra protein from the new-born fawns allows them to grow quite large. This Outfitter is one of only a handful permitted to operate in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. Understand that the Arctic Refuge is the last great untouched wilderness on earth.

ZIM #88 LION HUNT & BUFFALO SPECIAL FOR 2015
| 
This PH is, to our mind, one of the best in Zimbabwe for dangerous game, and his pricing is very fair. He is a wonderfully experienced guy with literally many hundreds of elephant kills to his credit, plus hundreds of other pieces of dangerous game, all taken over a long and successful career as a PH.
This PH normally conducts all his own hunts! You likely will fly into Vic Falls Airport in Zimbabwe for pickup. Yet another plus on this hunt is that you avoid a very expensive air charter! That alone can save you $1500 easily! Instead you drive to camp for which there is a modest transport fee - currently $400 roundtrip. Observers are at a very modest rate (see price list).
Lodging is another big plus- although it can vary with locale hunted. Normally you will be taken to a very upscale bed and breakfast, along the shores of Lake Kariba. It has its own swimming pool; its' rooms are en suite with full baths and you will be served very tasty food. You are likely to see crocs and hippos, so do be a bit careful when walking around the pool! Other locations can be more rustic, it all depends where the game is. 
Lion hunt in the Mabale / Gwayi area.The first client to put a deposit through will secure it. PH estimates 90% success on mature full mane Lion!
