I picked up some guiding the last couple years while I was on vacation from my real job.. guiding is work, a lot of it and most of it doesn't pay or pays very little. If your not the owner/operator you won't really make a living. Like others said, it sounded fun until it wasn't and that was pretty quickly. You will deal with mostly stupid people, constantly making you question your sanity or how many of them didn't get hit in traffic as kids. Some clients are great, you meet all walks of life and will make new friends. You will put a lot of stress on yourself knowing somebody is paying for you to make them successful and happy. Tips are not a given, and shouldn't be relied on. Unless your wife has a good job, or your willing to grind it out all year long picking up odd jobs, it's not gonna be great.
You will also more than likely give up your own hunting, or only get a few days here and there but at inopertune times as the best season dates you'll be working not hunting.
I wouldn't do it personally.
Single guy, no family, no obligations, sure. Family man no
