Hunt EK824

COLORADO PRIVATE-LAND ELK $4400
4-DAY HORSEBACK HUNT
TYPICALLY OVER 85% SUCCESS
We just can’t say enough about this hunt. Private land, cabin accommodations, horseback from the cabin daily, plenty of elk, super high success and priced right.

2011 first rifle hunt went 8 for 8 on bulls, second hunt 7 for 8, third hunt 3 for 7, but they hit and lost 3 and missed 6. The top bulls grossed right at that 300-inch mark and they typically average in that 250 to 260-inch range. This hunt is just amazing for success and experiencing a true western elk hunt.

The outfitter produces numbers like this every year. His archery hunts are all calling, spot and stalk. A very exciting way to chase bulls and his success is unmatched. Last fall he hosted 12 archers and they took 6 bulls and wounded and lost 6. All wounded bulls were hit at under 25 yards and all hunters took shots except one hunter and he passed. In 2010 he had 11 archers take 10 bulls.

In 2010 he had 40 rifle hunters over the course of 4 seasons score on 34 bulls, including 11 six point bulls and 2 that gross scored over 300 inches. Most bulls taken are 5x5’s averaging in the 240 to 260 class.

In 2009 his 31 hunters tagged 27 bulls, 2 missed and 2 passed. Best bull was a 5x6 that grossed 290 and the average bull went 250 Boone and Crockett points. The 2008 rifle season produced 24 bulls for 28 hunters and everyone got shooting. JUST LOOK AT THE SUCCESS RATE OVER THE PAST SEVERAL YEARS.

This small personal outfitter operates on a private ranch with high elk numbers just southeast of Craig. Most bulls taken are 5 points, although some will be 6 points. Hunters can add mule deer for only $1,600 and they take some great bucks.

All hunts are horseback and are 4 days guided 2x1. Accommodations is a renovated pre-1900 ranch house with 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, big kitchen, living room, mud room and enclosed porch. The first rifle hunt has been 100% in the draw. The second and third season elk permits are sold over-the-counter. Fourth season elk hunters need to apply, but draw has been near 100%.

Deer permits have also been close to 100% draw. Rifle elk hunts are $4,400 or combine with mule deer for $6,000.

Over the past 6 years he has had only 3 bowhunters not take a shot at a bull and success has been just over 75%. Two hunts are September 17-20 and 21-24. Bow hunts are $5,000 and muzzleloader is $4,500. Hunters are picked up at Hayden airport.
