trphyhntr Report post Posted January 23 If that guy knows so much about stalking elk with a bow, why did he hire a guide? 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Young buck Report post Posted January 23 Ask the guy that wrote that on bowsite about the 400” bull he had drawn back on at 48yds and why he didn’t shoot it. You can’t shoot them for the clients. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

First time for me. Reason was I was tired of being a solo hunter when I killed an Elk. I needed help with the pack out. My guides were young enough to be my grandkids. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildwoody Report post Posted January 23 Ya im gonna call BS. I've sat in snow storms and rain storms until I couldn't take anymore and they pushed me thru it. Yes they fight there brothers communicating. Sounds like a rich guy that didn't have his hunt work out. Those Young men have probably grounded more 400" bulls and 120" whitetails then any powerline outfitters. And lion hunting no comparison. This is why ill only cook. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GreyGhost85 Report post Posted January 23 The huge majority of outfitters are garbage and everyone knows it. That being said, that is the only negative thing i’ve heard about azgp. I’d take it with a grain of salt. Someone is pissy they ate a tag. Archery hunts are tough 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CouesFanatic Report post Posted January 23 He says they blew up 4 stalks? Clearly he hasn't hunted much. There isn't a human on the planet that doesn't blow stalks. You keep trying till it happens just right. I've been in camp with them and they hunt hard with lots of local knowledge. There is a reason they can charge as much as they do, they kill big stuff constantly. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maximus Report post Posted January 23 I think that guy was pissed about not harvesting anything, I read so many positive things about them and was surprise about, I was doing a search and that came up. i’m they are great guides. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
