I know $1000 is alot of money but if you ever want to hunt out west, it's not hard to skip eating out or conserve in other ways and hunt DIY for elk. It will never get any cheaper!
The last DIY Mule Deer hunt we did in WY. cost us $600. each. We're looking into a DIY Bow Hunt for Elk. The only way to go.
