Kutter

I've never been on a guided hunt, so I have no experience in whether to tip or not. I do wonder though, when you sign up for a hunt with an outfitter, isn't what you get for your money mentioned up front? If a guide to set you up in a stand and get the deer dressed and back to camp is included, then isn't that what you already paid for? If food is provided as part of the deal, are you not expecting someone to cook it?
Perhaps I am just a tightwad, I hope not. I have no problem with tipping when I feel I got more than what I was expecting in the original deal. However, why tip when you get only what is reasonably expected from an outfitter? Just because a guide agreed to work for an outfitter for low wages and expects tips is not reason enough for me to pay his way.
