This is the best you’re going to get. Unfortunately, most people that have traveled and used outfitters have seen one or more ruined by the increased demand that comes with people sharing their contacts. People also inevitably go show their asses after using their source as a reference. If an outfitter is one of the best, he’s full.
Take Andy’s advice, and go have fun. Meet people in the area and try to network. Not every outfitter is well advertised and not every rancher is an outfitter. It doesn’t mean he won’t let you hunt for a little cash.
I have a connection in North Texas that we met during a fiasco of a trip trying a new outfitter. We now go and stay at his family’s ranch for nothing and pay a few of his buddy’s a little to shoot a few birds.
And just because Ol Phillip Culpepper killed 11 rios in two days on spring thunder, don’t expect it to be easy. Go for the brisket and Lone Star, and hope to kill a bird or 2. Good luck.
Them that don't know him won't like him, and them that do sometimes won't know how to take him
He ain't wrong, he's just different, and his pride won't let him do things to make you think he's right
They don't put Championship rings on smooth hands
