    Elk hunt questions

    So I know nothing about guided hunts at all, but was looking at guided elk or mule deer hunts in Colorado. What is the best outfitter to go with? Do I have to get a license if I am on private property with an outfitter? Teach me anything y'all know please. After its all said and done ( successful hunt, lodging, eating, processor, taxidermy) and everything else, what should I expect to pay? Doesn't need to be the biggest elk or mule deer just something nice. Thanks for any input!

    License - Yes- $601.00 for non resident. Some units are over the counter some units are draw.

    Total cost after all expenses $5000.00 to $7000.00

      This. I've found good hunts in NM for less than $5K easily but after taxi and processing you're in for some more dough.

        Our DIY Public Land hunts the last two years have run ~$1,500 for license, fuel & food. Processing will run $275-500+ on an elk depending on what you have made. Taxidermy shoulder mounts will run $1,000+ total whether you get em done down here or up there and ship.

          do you always get a shoulder mount when you go?
