Heck no, I don't have that type of money to throw around and if I did I would still go cheaper. Heck, some states you can get an Elk/Mule deer combo tag for $350. A lot of people don't want to do things the hard way and would rather just spend a few grand on a guide, sometimes in a fenced in area just to immediately satisfy their blood lust and say heh, look at my trophy! But for me the meat ain't worth that much and I would get much more satisfaction out of saying, hey, I loaded up the camper and headed out west to the foot hills, didn't get anything but dang it was an awesome experience to spend a few nights under the stars in the great wilderness and spent some quality time with my boy.
