RE: Outfitter vs No Outfitter
Definately no outfitter! This is what huntings all about, exploring new territory, hunting where you want, making your own decisions.
Your really not hunting if you hire someone to take you to the game and the only thing you really did is shoot the animal. Thats not hunting in my book. You didn't do any of the leg work or thinking that comes with hunting.
Anyone with money can go out and buy themselves a trophy. Its the fellas that get out on DIY hunts that are the true hunters in my book IMO.
