    Bighorn Sheep Tag Process

    Bighorn sheep hunters, talk to me like I’m 5. I’ve been on a dall sheep hunt in Alaska, which was simple. Book the hunt and there’s no worries about a tag. I believe (correct me if I’m wrong, that Stone sheep is the same general process). But for Rocky Mountain Bighorn and Desert Bighorn, I...

    Best Alaska Moose Outfitter?

    All good points. Honestly, looking for the biggest moose possible with a reputable outfitter. I'm relatively young and in good shape, so not concern with amount of work. And just fine eating Mountain House in a spike camp for every meal.

    Best Alaska Moose Outfitter?

    Thank y'all. Looking at God's Country Aviation, it reads like a self-guided hunt. Am I understanding that correctly? I'm looking for a guided hunt - no real preference when talking about horseback, backpack, boat, etc. Just really want to make sure I'm with a top notch outfit.

    Best Alaska Moose Outfitter?

    No preference on Alaska or the Yukon, but curious the board's take on the best outfitter - assuming no budget? Was looking at Stoney River a few years back but the owners sold the outfit. Thanks in advance.

    Best Dall Sheep Outfitters?

    Background - I hunted Dall Sheep in the Alaska range on horseback in 2015. Enjoyed the horseback experience, but the outfitter was horrible. Horrible. I'm mainly focused on quality of outfitter / sheep population, and type of hunt comes secondary. I've heard great things about Raven's Throat and...

    Alaska/Yukon 2025 Moose Hunt

    I'm currently speaking with a couple Yukon Territory outfitters. Both mentioned on this thread and think they run good outfits. In doing a little digging, it seems like the Alaska based outfits produce bigger moose (more 70"+). Is that just marketing or is there truth to it?

    NM / AZ Native Land Elk Hunt

    I'm going to keep after White Mountain. San Carlos has stopped trophy elk hunts for the time being. Going to look further into Mescalero.

    NM / AZ Native Land Elk Hunt

    I have looked into White Mountain Apache Reservation but seems as if they have closed their waitlist and not accepting new hunters. Are there any comparable tribes with big elk? Willing to pay the full expected price and would like the chance at a big elk, but also want a legit hunt and not a...
