stanley Report post Posted March 4, 2022 Sort of interesting to me. Many outfitters have pricing posted on their websites. Maybe they just haven’t figured out 2022 pricing yet? Inflation, etc.? 🙄 Oh well, whatever happens, good luck PRDATR! 👊🏼 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A3 has a website but no pricing. I called them too and left a VM and sent them an inquiry direct from their site so I guess I'll just wait to see if anything pans out or I'll just do the hunt solo like my last Bull hunt.

Mykolaivka887 Report post Posted March 4, 2022 You might try getting a hold of Rob Hardy (907-355-5291). He's a one-man show and will guide you personally -- no big entourage, very personalized and he'll block out an entire hunt period (7-9 days) to hunt with you. He lives right underneath the Rim and is out in the backcountry at least 320 days a year, scouting and guiding. His prices are competitive and those prices are listed in his website. Very straightforward and honest guy, and extremely organized. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have you noticed the price of diesel and gas lately? People have no qualms about laying out $50K for a car or twice that for a truck or 10X's that for a house. One thing that people don't take into consideration is how many hours a guide ('s) spend scouting, cost of insurance, NFS Permits. Spare me me PLZ. For me, it's never about the money. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They charged the same last year when gas prices were half as much. I guess these other top outfitters doing it for $5500 are losing money. And yes people tend to lay out large amounts of money for necessary things in life like vehicles and houses. Not so much for late rifle elk hunts. Even less likely when you're hunting sub par units like you drew. If money is no issue then more power to you. For most people, getting a guide is a once or twice in a lifetime event so money is definitely a factor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
