HUNT DETAILS:
This is a guided rifle mule deer hunt in the Sawtooth zone in central Idaho. As an outfitter, they are allocated tags so clients don’t need to apply and draw the tag. The outfitter is only allocated a certain number of tags, and they're usually booked by the middle of summer each year, so booking in advance is necessary. They run up to four hunters per week out of camp. Along with the guides, they have a dedicated crew of spotters that spend their time in the field each week locating bucks for clients.
This outfitter is all about maintaining a high success and clients who have time to stay extra days in camp are welcome to without any charge. Bucks in this area range from 150-170 with some over 180 being taken each year.
ACCOMMODATIONS:
Hunts take place from cabins/houses with most modern amenities. Those looking for more of a backcountry hunt can arrange to camp out in heated tents overnight in areas that are harder to access. Along with hiking, they use horses and atvs to hunt their area which make this a great hunt for just about anyone.
LICENSE INFORMATION:
Idaho allocates permits through a random draw with no points system. Applications are due throughout the spring with exact deadlines dependent on species. Tags left over after the first drawing will go into a second drawing, which takes place in the summer. Huntin' Fool's License Application team will help you apply at the time of application. In some cases, outfitter allocated tags are provided by the outfitter if purchasing a hunt.
