Who to follow (or not)?

Hunting with a PH you trust is a great thing but do you really need a trusted PH on a cull hunt? For a cull hunt I would probably lean the Outfitters way because any PH he gives you will be able to point out culls for you to shoot.

I suppose that makes sense. The bar to become a PH is much higher than it is to become a guide in the Lower 48 in the US (just need a pickup truck and binoculars).
 
We all get attached to our Ph’s for the most part. I am no different.
It’s really tough because when traveling so far into a foreign land it’s great to be with a familiar face.
I will say that for me, being a true adventurous type, I really like meeting new people and going to new places. In hunting we are all friends, we’ve just not all met yet.

A single employee leaves for one reason or another. A group of employees leaving may signal something else. If I had a mechanic for my car, who did good work and treated me the way I wanted to be treated, I would not hesitate to follow him to another shop. Or, if after checking out the new shop I did not like the facilities, attitude or willingness to value me as a customer, I would expand my search. Bottom line, as said before, you are the client and customer. Do not be afraid to do your due diligence and open up the search for a good or better match.
 
All that glitters, is not always gold. Don't mean to be clich'e. There could be underlying factors, or not?
Years ago, I worked as a guide for a well respected outfitter in the Madison Valley of Montana. He had a quality outfit, and was good to his clients, but had a tendency to be an A-hole to employees. He treated his horses better then he did me.

Despite that, he had many repeat clients.

As a client, you never know what is going on behind the scenes.?

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!

Here we are, the last day of the show in Denver, it's been a good show but expecting a quiet day today. I will be back for-sure to do this show next year and maybe also do the one in Sacramento California.

On Monday I will be hitting the road driving from Denver and eventually make it down to Atlanta for the flight home.

its going to be a good year!

Hi Rem280, Saw your post on getting selected for Idaho Elk. Do you have a zone(s) selected? I live in N Idaho, might be able to offer some ideas.

Cheers,

Craig
