RE: hunting w/ outfitter newbie here
I would highly recommend using a booking agent to help you out. I would recommend Cabelas to get you started. They have already done the homework for you so that you don't book with a bad outfitter and get burned like I did this past year. They are very knowledgable and will help you through the whole process. I spoke to Jason Berger and he is definitely who I am using for my next hunt. Good luck.
