[QUOTE="Salmonchaser, post: 1526173, member: 107697"] Well a lot of ranch hunts can be very good hunts, from a hunting standpoint with a high probability of success. Utah has some great elk but I'm not familiar with the draw system there either. Wyoming, Montana, Colorado and Oregon are all good bets I should think for guided hunts on either private or public ground. I hunted Colorado on a diy drop camp in a wilderness area this last season. We didn't tag out, but passed on several small but legal bulls and killed some good ones. My Montana hunts were private ground and were very successful and were good hunts, not slam dunks. In Oregon, if you book a guided hunt on private ground, the guide will have access to land owner preference tags, which will be almost guaranteed draw. 95% of my hunting has been public ground diy, so I don't have any names of guides to send your way. My Montana hunts are on my Brother in laws ranch. He doesn't guide. So I wasn't much help but let me be the first to welcome you to the club. This was my 51st season chasing elk. Not much I'd rather do. [/QUOTE]
