I wouldn't go back in to an area that an outfitter took me in even if it was public land.It just doesn't seem right to me.That is how they earn their living and in my opinion to use their knowledge and pay for it once and then to go back and hunt it again year in and year out is the wrong thing to do.I am sure the outfitter would be pissed if they saw your smiling face in there the next year after they had taken you in.
Have you done any thing illegal? No you havn't but not very honorable in my opinion.As it relates to bringing a friend or guest in to an area that I have scouted and hunted.If they came back in with out my permission our friend ship would be over.That a low life thing to do in my opinion.
If you want to DIY out of state and you have hunted with a guide previously,and the guide was honorable I would suggest staying out of their guiding territory.You can call a states guides and outfitters association for the guides territory.
Plenty of ground out in most of the western states,there is no reason to not to find your own area's.
