Jim Toth: Idaho Archery Elk Hunt Report

Trip Taken: Idaho Archery Elk Hunt
Consultant: Kyle Hanson | Outdoors International

September, 2020

What an amazing elk hunting experience!

We wanted a challenge, we wanted to be in the mountains with elk bugling all around us within bow range, we wanted to laugh and eat well, we wanted to make new friends. CHECK MARKS ACROSS THE BOARD! Everyone we met was professional and authentic who knew the ground, the animals, the limitations of the two guys from the Midwest they were guiding. The pack animals were all simply amazing especially for a guy with very limited horse experience.

My hunt was absolutely top notch.

The outfitter is a fantastic man and incredibly hard working and knowledgeable, there is no doubt he will do everything within his power to make peoples hunts successful and enjoyable. I plan to do it again with him next year for sure.

Our hunt was excellent.

We saw bucks every day along with all other sorts of wildlife. Mountain goats, bears, and foxes were common sights. Fishing and crabbing was special bonus. The food was excellent, the crew was amazing. Outdoors International did a great job of finding exactly what we were looking for.

What an amazing experience!

The hunting lodge was out of this world!, Rooms, food and the scenery were all A+. Our guide was exceptional and had us on Shiras moose all five days. We saw over 30 total with at least 10 bulls. They had a plan for everything including taxidermy and game processing.
