It has nothing to do with skill 99% of the time.

If you look at the records books, it is super rare for most species to not be guided. Whitetails, mule deer and pronghorn not withstanding.
Guided or not, if you are hunting where trophy caliber animals live, and the next guy is hunting where the species lives, but the trophy caliber animals simply aren't there, then you didn't do anything better

I've been going since 2017 and the amount it has grown since then is astonishing. I started going to "up" the odds of winning a <1 Club hunt and in 2020, I did. I think there are so many things to do, that it is almost impossible to cover everything in such a short time. Check out the website and look at the list of exhibitors and events and put together a game plan. There should also be an app coming out soon, if it already isn't. It has helped a lot the past few years. You'll have a great time.

Went last year, hung out with the Outdoorsmans / western hunter guys. Lots of fun. I already have too much other travel planned so I won't be there this year.

Was pretty funny to be at dinner and realize Remi Warren was at the table. I recognized his voice from the podcast lol.

Which record books show if the animal was killed on a guided hunt?

Safari Club says who the guide is. I thought they all did. Maybe not.
You sure do like that high fence book. Didn’t know anyone ever gives that book a serious look…

B&C doesn’t list whether it’s guided or not. But they also don’t take your pets into the record book 🤣

Went last year for the first time. Had a lot of fun.

Unfortunately falls on the last weekend of deer season for us in south Texas so can’t make it this year.
