I am looking for some information on a hunting consultant that is personable, professional and someone I can trust to book me quality once in a lifetime type Archery Hunts. I will start out with Elk, then a few other species before moving onto Red Stag and S.A. In my searches, I have come across “The Outfitter Network.” It appears that he also has the Elk Camp.com site and does some speaking at RMEF events.

I have also looked at Cabela’s T.A.G.S., United States Outfitters, Bullseye Outdoor Adventures Inc, Steve's Outdoor Adventures and Archery Only Consultants. Please provide any experiences with using The Outfitter Network or any of the consultants listed above? Or if you have a hunting consultant that you would recommend.

bslugnut,

My brother-in-law took off this morning for a three week hunt in Africa. He met his PH through an outfitter that is very involved with the British Columbia Outfitters Association. If you want to, contact either Tim or Oz (Tim's wife) at Shadow Mountain Outfitters (www.huntshadowmountainoutfitters.com). If they can't help you, they will know someone that can.

Check out Chris Denham with Western Hunter magazine. He would be more than happy to help you out. Tell him the crazy guy from idaho sent you.............................. he is out of Arizona............

I have spoken to Jason Berger at Cabelas and he is very knowledgeable. I am definitely going to use him when I book my next hunt. You don't want to get burned like I did this past year not using someone who has done the homework for you. Good Luck.

Keith Atcheson with Atcheson & Son's out of Butte Montanais the best. He is everything you described. Give him a call you will not be disappointed. check out their website:

Elkcrazy8 - You mentioned to check out Chris Denham with Western Hunter magazine. I have found articles on him or that he co-wrote. But, nothing on Western Hunter Magazine as to where or how to buy it. I only items that I found were http://www.westernhunter.com/and http://www.westernhunting.comand http://www.monstermuleys.com. Could you assist me in providing any additional info to contact him and the mag?

Thanks,
BSLugnut
