RE: Open Range Elk /OR/ 20,000 acre ranch?
Where do you see $6000.00 for a 400 class? I see $5900.00 for up to 340 class than add $2000.00 to that for bigger. Go open range Elk Do a true wilderness hunt and get the full experiance.

ORIGINAL: MichiganWhitetails74 Ok guys...I'm not in this to spark up an argument on fenced in hunts....I want you to give me your opinion choice. Which would you do? This is not a DIY hunt.....these are guided hunts... 1) A 380 - 400 class bull elk (Guarantee Hunt?)...On a 20,000 acrefenced in ranch.. 6000 dollars. 2) A guided Elk hunt for $4250 with a reputable outfitter. Check outwww.utahelkhunt.com I'm not afraid to say...I like what I see...and know a guy that hunted with them...MONSTERS. as a westerner, the use of the word "ranch" is used a little too liberally here... A Ranch is not a high fenced pen for Ek... Not interested in this hunt.... prefer DIY, and since I live in the West, and grew up doing this stuff, could not imagine any other way to hunt Elk....They are too majestic to put in a fence!!! |

Take the DIY hunt something about the word Guarantee that would totally wreak it for me!! Hunting should not be a guarantee!!!

With you and Walt on this one.
ORIGINAL: magicman54494 I wouldn't pick eithor. I'm a DIY guy. I would get much more satisfaction taking a smaller animal on a DIY hunt. |

ORIGINAL: iamyourhuckleberry Sorry dude, I won't spend more than the cost of a resident elk tag-ever. You are more than welcome to join us in September.A OTC non-resident tag is somewhere around $500. I can guarantee you a great time and tons of fun. I would go free range. I don't have a real reason other than I pondered the same question for some time and just wouldn't feel right about being behind a fence even though it would not be a limiting factor. Either way you go, I hope you have a blast! |

I think a canned hunt if youre 75yo and have yet to take that monster elk is one thing.....
and also 20,000 acres out west, isn't 20,000 acres out east......and you may run into a fence.... IMO I want to shoot a 400" on open range, not canned/fenced. a 330" uncanned IMO is bigger than a 380-410 canned. Course its your money, is it not fenced? just a ranch? private land? if that's the case, do whichever. |

Open range with a reputable guide.
