There's been a few threads on this in the past IIRC. General consensus was 15% of the cost of the hunt,...,10% to the guide,..,5% divided between the cook and wrangler.
I agree with Big Uncle too...a lot depends on the circumstance of the hunt.If the guide works hard for you more $$$ could be warranted.
I definitely wouldn't tip until after the hunt is over.
The last time there was a thread like this on here I think we had a few guides post.
