[QUOTE="rking453, post: 2925885, member: 122949"] Hey folks, I'm seeking some advice on booking my first guided hunt. I'll give you a little background first. I live and hunt in northern NY, mostly for whitetail. I usually get 3 or 4 deer a year, and do all the processing myself. I hate to say it, but it's just not that exciting for me anymore. I enjoy it still, but it's starting to feel a bit like a chore. I would really like to get out there and try something new. I'm looking for the chance to hunt any big game besides whitetail. I'm thinking elk, antelope, mule deer etc. I don't travel a lot, so it would be great to see a different part of the country. Ideally though, I want to find a hunt that I can drive to, 12 hours or less. Willing to drive a little more if need be. I'm not too interested in the complications of flying guns and meat home. I believe I'm pretty competent at hunting my home woods, but I would like something at least semi-guided to help me figure out how to hunt a totally new area. I don't want to take the vacation time and time away from my family to sleep in my truck for a week and bumble around not knowing what I'm doing just to save a few bucks. I would really appreciate any insights, advice, recommendations of outfitters or lodges you folks have for me. [/QUOTE]
