An elk hunt is the dream of a lifetime for many, but it does not have to be a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence.
Colorado
Colorado has a diverse landscape of arid desert, river canyons and snow-covered Rocky Mountains, which are partly protected by Rocky Mountain National Park. From hunting to fishing to jaw dropping views, beautiful Colorado offers a plethora of choices for the outdoor adventure enthusiast.
Articles and Trip Reports
Will be back hunting in Colorado soon. The outfitter and his guys were lights out. Best guide I’ve had in 8 years of hunting and hunting trips. And I’m not one for guides.
Hunting was tough, opening day was great then weather went bad, but our guides worked hard to get the job done.
I booked a 1st rifle elk hunt in Colorado through Kyle Hanson with Outdoors International. Kevin, Marc, and Steve were fantastic, and really worked hard to get us a shot at a bull elk.
My guide Grant did a great job trying to find me a good buck. We looked at 300+ antelope the first day!
They are great guides that know how to put clients on elk and also how make to make your hunt a great experience.
The outfitter lives in and knows this area from front to back, He has all the resources to help you get on a nice trophy Colorado pronghorn.
Colorado is famous for its quantity AND quality of pronghorn antelope. This state is consistently producing record-class animals. Our Colorado ranches are managed for amazing hunting, and our antelope hunters have had an incredible 100% opportunity rate on trophy bucks!
We are excited to offer top-end Colorado fly fishing guides on some of Colorado’s premier public and private trout water.
We have over-the-counter rifle elk hunts; archery elk hunts; elk hunting on private land; and limited entry trophy elk hunts in Colorado.
Our deer hunts start in October and run through Mid-November on 200,000 private acres and BLM with 100% success on average 160 to 190 inch deer.
Mat Cervantes at Outdoors International is the only hunting consultant I use when booking hunts. He is my go to guy and I wont hunt if he doesn’t plan it.
My friend Dave and I booked through Outdoors International for a guided elk hunt after our state draws proved unsuccessful. Kyle Hanson set us up with an outfitter hunting elk on Colorado public land.
Everything on our elk hunt was excellent!! Everyone went out of their way to help us in any way that we needed. He did an excellent job and I would recommend him to anybody!
Brian was my elk hunting guide one on one hunt it was a amazing hunt with lots of snow.
These Colorado mountain lion hunting trips take place in prime lion country, with a good population of mature toms.
It was a fly fishing, camping and white water rafting trip all in one. In an amazing place and we were very well taken care of buy the guides. The food was exceptional for the place it was prepared. I would recommend this trip to anyone with an adventurous heart.
I will admit that there are better tacticians and callers than myself, but I hold my own. Positioning, playing the wind, approach, not calling, calling aggressive, cow calling, bugling, and on and on…all these are critical when you are chasing love sick bull elk.
This was was my first Western hunt ever and I didn’t know what to expect. I could not have been happier.
The intent of this post is to present the pros and cons of the “accumulate points, draw a tag, and then find an outfitter system” versus the “get a guaranteed tag along with your guided hunt system.”
