A friend is looking to do a drop camp with his dad and asked me for ideas, I've never used an outfitter so cant really help him out, I dont believe they have any points. Who do you guys reccomend?

Eagle mtn outfitters by Gunnison is worth hunting with. It’s a draw unit but can be drawn with zero points.

I have never hunted with him but I have hunted the area he has his camps in. There are plenty of elk in the area to chase.

Check out Flowers Colorado Outfitters in Montrose, Colorado.

Drop camp has been successful and one important characteristic...he has a tremendous amount of repeat clients.

look for outfitters that either only do drop camps and/or have camps on private property

He was looking at western outdoor adventures, I guess it's a drop camp on private, anyone know anything about them?

I have been impressed with Needle Rock Outfitters. Used them for pack in and a meat haul this year. Very punctual with good stock and equipment. Didn't use them for a drop camp but they do them on both private and public I think.

I’ve hunted with Jon Sund from Eagle mountain several times. Jon is a good guy and his camps are well equipped and in good locations. The main reason I picked him the first time was because he only does drop camps. As was said, it’s a draw unit but always undersubscribed so you should have no problem drawing a tag.

J Bar H out of Meeker. May require a few points. Jeanne Horne has a top shelf crew.

Just read a "Outfitter Review" of a "outfitted hunt" in Idaho that was highly recommended. Claimed they were in elk every day. It`s on the front page....can`t recall the name though.
