Shot this bull on Sunday. Not the monster we were after, but I really liked the look of him and went ahead and took him. Had an excellent experience with the Outfitter.
Have had a ton of messages. I simply took the offers in order, so I have a guy pending payment for everything that's left. If he falls through, I'll let the next guy in line know.
All of this is Size XL and the pants are a 36. Most of it was worn on one hunt where I filled my tag on the second day. Essentially one wear per item. A couple of the shirts are brand new and one still has the tags. None of the clothes are torn or ripped anywhere or exhibit any wear signs...
I have an A2 with several conversions. Simply put, it has become my favorite rifle over AIs and several customs. The trigger is crisp and clean, the ergos are great for me, and every barrel I’ve tried (factory and custom) have been remarkably accurate.
I have a bull elk hunt coming in...
Unfortunately, using language in a contract because it sounds better than using accurate and succinct language is nearly always a recipe for ambiguity and litigation.
The beauty of an online message board is that I can talk about it with a ton of people who are more experienced than I am in the process. I wanted to make sure I wasn’t way off base before asking him about it.
Glad your way worked out for you. This has worked out well for me.
The different perspectives are interesting because I can’t imagine signing a contract that could result in me wasting a bull tag I waited 10 years to get based on vague contract language allowing a guide to bow at for any reason at all or for no reason at all. Particularly when it will likely be...
I have no problem with the guide reserving the right to cancel the hunt for cause, but I’m not OK with putting myself at risk of having a guy cancel at the last minute leaving me with the elk tag and no clue where to hunt.
That said, I updated few posts ago and said that the guide was very cool...
Just exchanges a few emails with the guide and he was very understanding. I offered to draft some language for his contract and he was appreciative.
And the guide is the owner of his outfit and has several other guides working for him.
There you’re wrong. If I drafted the contract it would specifically state the cause necessary for a cancellation.
Suing someone is not fun, nor is it a good way to go through life. I’ve never sued anyone personally and hope I never do. If you have to sue someone it means that something has...
He is a licensed Master Guide in the State of Nevada.
I emailed him and I suspect we’ll be able to work it out. I’ll update here when I hear back from him. I’m certainly not looking to burn anyone so I won’t be posting names unless something goes really wrong and I feel the need to prevent...
I’ve never before used a guide but decided to hire one for a bull hunt this year because I don’t have the time to adequately scout for elk before the hunt. It’s a difficult tag to get here and I want to make the best possible use of it.
I received the agreement the other day and it contains a...
Thanks for all of the feedback. I own both guns already.
The SAUM is on a bighorn action with a Proof barrel, an MDT LSS, and a Vortex AMG, so its a lightweight laser.
The 300 is a Desert Tech A2 with a 22” barrel and an AMG. Definitely heavier, but not terrible.
Either one will be...
