Hello, I read some posters get put down cause low posting count, like me new to this computer thing Read alot post little, Here goes, Wi retired farmer be 72 in spring and fall work kept me out of western hunting,last time M loader in colorado. 21 points ago. My body took a few hits past life so beat up as it is still not in the HOME, What i,m looking for is a guided hunt 1 on 1 for a nice bull 1 on 1 don,t want to slow a fit hunter down. Would like a bow or M Loader hunt.I understand it will cost $$ but can,t see paying $$$$$$ Some of the posters live elk hunting and must know of honest outfitters. I know even the best outfitters it,s still hunting. Some pointers is what i,m looking for. Thank all you guys and ladies for pointers. John

What Tony said.
there are some pretty good private land elk hunts with landowner tags here in central Oregon. depending on what size bull you'd be happy with and what you want to spend they might fit your needs.
Most get booked early with repeat clients so you can't wait too long.

If I were in your shoes (and I wish I were) I would look at Unit 76 and Frazier outfitter. I believe you could even possibly draw early rifle with your points.

LAST EDITED ON Jan-10-18 AT 12:36PM (MST)[p]Unit 61 in Colorado and use Weimer Hunt Camp. Ryan will take care of you and will come well under budget. My dad bought a landowner tag a few years ago and had a great hunt with them

I would try Mike Lawson with trophy class outfitters in unit 40 with rifle. It would be a great hunt. I hunted with them in 15 and would love to do it again.

Unit 40 or 61.
76 is some rough country, so you best be in good shape... which is why I would look into the Abive units. Mike Lawson is a real good choice, but I doubt you would get in for under 6k. I would look into that 61 option if I were you.

LAST EDITED ON Jan-13-18 AT 07:52AM (MST)[p]+1. 76 is probably not your best option due to physical limitations.
40, pricey but the easiest hunt and great trophy potential. If on private land, I would suspect chance of success would be the highest of the choices.
61: should be able to draw an arhery tag and possibly the regular 1st rifle tag (not early). But rifle took 21 last year and could go up. You probably couldn't draw a muzzy tag as it took 22 points the last 2 years.
Mike Lawson with trophy class outfitters sounds like a pretty good option, and is not that much above your price range. This will be a once in a lifetime hunt, so what is a few extra thousand dollars???
