I was looking at a 10 day guided Elk hunt in the Bob Marshall Wilderness with a reputable outfitter. The cost of the hunt is more like $8,500 + transportation. My PG hunt for 6 animals & 10 days of hunting was $5,650 + transportation ($2,600.) There is a VAT on the Day Fees of 14%, I'm not sure if there is a sales tax on the Elk hunt. Like I said the costs were a wash. You are almost guaranteed to take all of the animals in your African package. Whereas the success rate on Elk is considerably less, I doubt that it is as high as 20%.
