I'll be heading on my first semi-guided hunt at the end of April out west for a Merriam's. What type of tip (if any) is customary? There are guides, people cooking and tending camp, etc.
my suggestion is to contact your guide service...remember he'll be your best friend once your in camp. Unless he's a fly by night outfitter, he'll be honest with you. Also, you might try contacting the Dept. of Conversation in that state....they would know what the local sales taxes andcompensatory rules are for the guide services.
