yea how does it even work. are these guides offering to take you out for free or a discount bc they want to be the ones who took out the silver state tag and if they kill a slammer they want that publicity? are all these guys sending you scouting pics saying pick me pick me? or did he call epic and they called around and found an outfitter with a buck worthy and linked op up with them? just curious. congrats nick thats a giant

I cold called a lot of guides but honestly most wanted full price or more for a "trophy " buck. Most the guides I called were already helping the other two heritage tag holders or had archery clients paying big bucks to hunt. Some offered to help once thier clients tagged out. Ended up calling Jason Carter and he sent me to deepcreekoutfitters. Travis was all about the hunt and showed very little care about the money. He put on one heck of a camp for me and my buddy. Those deep creek guys are second to none and I have no doubt in my mind they would have carried me up that mountain had I needed it. It was never about bragging rights or being the "top" guide with the biggest buck. They put me and my wants first and over delivered on everything. Yes this buck is a buck of a lifetime but those guys made it a hunt if a lifetime.

Nothing is free in this world my friend, if you're not paying for it someone else is.
