Drop Camp recs

Postby tmaggie50 » 01 08, 2016 •  [Post 1]

Im looking to get some Drop Camp outfitter recommendations. Im interested in Colorado and New Mexico. Want to stay in the $2K range for the camp and services. Looking for hire odds of successfully pulling tags. None of our hunters will have priority points.

Really appreciate any recommendations!

I book hunts for 2 outfitters only. 1 in Wyoming and 1 in Montana. In Wyo the USFS does not authorize drop camps or even basic packing services. Guided hunts only. But in Montana I can do drops. Hunts are $1950 per hunter and licenses are 100% guaranteed as long as you have the apps in by March 15th. How many hunters?

Let me know if you are interested.

J Bar H outfitters out of Meeker. CO. Jeanne Horne owns and runs it. You won't find a better one in CO.Great camps, great staff and livestock.She has a walk in cooler at her base camp.

I think she is booked for 2016 ,so you would be looking at 2017,but that is filling fast.

She has a website that you can Google that has stat ,etc on it .

I don't think you will find anyone in CO for $2K, its going to be at least $2500 maybe even $2800
