HUNT: Colorado Mule Deer & Elk Combo Hunt
CONSULTANT: Kyle Hanson, Outdoors International
October 29 through November 8, 2021
This is a top-notch outfitter.
They have you covered from the time you get into town to purchase your tags, to after you leave, and they oversee your trophy shipment. Our hunting lodge was nestled in hundreds of acres of private forest overlooking snow covered mountains. Dinners where prepared every night and served family style amongst the hunters and guides. Which becomes more appropriate as you do become like family with this outfitter. Every day multiple animals of several species are seen. This year in particular it seemed like the game was abundant. Mule deer in every open field and elk in herds of over a hundred.
My hunt started before ever getting to Colorado, when the owner would text me photos of target bucks and bulls.
This is really when I started to get excited for the trip ahead. Once in Buena Vista, Colorado they met my wife and I at the licensing agent to pick up our tags. On this particular trip my wife had a mule deer tag and I had a bull elk tag, as well as deer. On the first night back at the Lodge we were made aware of a giant muley that had come out of the mountains onto a huntable property. This deer became our obsession. With Ben Junior or Little Ben as we called him as our guide, we spent 3 full days scouring the properties for him. Finally on our fourth afternoon after only having a couple brief sightings, our paths met on top an overlook field. This Muley is truly a once in a lifetime buck and the pinnacle of my hunting career thus far.
I would absolutely recommend you give this outfitter a try. They will do everything possible to get you your trophy animal.

I didn't think an experience like this was possible.
This trip, was, for me at least not just a trip, for me it was a real adventure, a real experience. I love the wilderness and this trip afforded me the opportunity to connect with the Alaskan wilderness in ways very few people do. It was an experience I will never forgot in a place I can’t wait to get back to.Oliver Fischer
The outfitter handled everything perfectly.
We were thankful that Outdoors International hooked us up with a great outfitter because they were able to find us an acceptable alternate on short notice. Overall the two year process to get this float in was seamless and worry free. Just like it should be.Thank you, Stan Masneri
What an amazing experience!
The lodge was out of this world! Our rooms, the delicious food, the incredible wildlife and the scenery were amazing. Our photo safari guide was truly exceptional and had us on animals almost constantly. We saw over 30 different species and had some incredible up close experiences. Africa is amazing!Scott Navares
