I have been very fortunate and have gone on five guided hunts. All of them but one was worth the money. However, the one bad one was really bad, quality and quantity of game, food, and lodging. There wasn't one good thing about the hunt. I recommend that you do as much research as possible and check a lot of references. Even with due diligence, you have to understand that guided hunts are a little like hunting itself. No matter how hard you try, there are no guarantees. However, I do believe there are a lot more good outfitters than bad ones.
