Unless it's fenced in, you won't be guarenteed squat and if you are, you probalby should be running from that outfit as fast as possible.

It's fair chase land. that means nobody can predict where the animals are today, the outfitter can tell you where they usually are, but nobody knows where they will be. Sometimes bad luck just happens. Fishing story, (not hunting I know). Went cod fishing with 5 other people in a boat. The boat pulled in MANY fish. I caught nothing. I used every rod and bait combo, just for whatever reason, didn't catch one.

Hunting can be the same, every spot you go could be empty today, while some other guy could be stumbling onto animals at every turn.

You are rolling the dice, which is why paying an outfitter, for me at least, is so scary. Best you can hope for is a good, honest, hard working outfitter and guide.
