Bow Hunting Elk in Meeker, CO
 
Looking for some outfitter recomendations for semi guided bow hunts for elk in the Meeker, CO area. Want someone with good success ratios and proven track record.

RE: Bow Hunting Elk in Meeker, CO
 
I just got back from a trip that was good on paper, good for me, but not nessasarily good for everyone that went. But that' s hunting.

We stayed at a place that provided cabin, private land, semi-guided, etc. There are showers, power, beds, cooking facilities, etc. We went during muzzeloder season but all of us were bowhunting. I would not do it with 8 guys again. 6 would be max.

I got close to 3 bulls on three different days. got a shot, didn' t bag one.

Out of the 8 guys that went 4 guys got shooting, That' s great odds!!!

The problem was that the other 4 guys didn' t see much at all.

Was it worth the money??? Sure if you were one of the shooters. Maybe not if you were one of the guys that didn' t see elk.

Here is the web site. Barry, the owner, is not a big bow hunter but he knows where the elk bed and where they travel. Not that it was hard for me to figure out in a few days but it was worth something. He allows 4 wheelers to get around. some of the best basins are 4 - 5 miles from your camp on ranch roads. There is BLM land beyond his land and If I were to do it again I would take a tent and spike camp way back beyond his land. We shot two of our elk in the BLM.
