What our hunters say:
- Linda L - This is our 2nd year hunting with Craig Dowdy and planning our 3rd now. This is by far the best outfitter for a epic cougar hunt you can every go on. They treat you like family and have great Accommodations with awesome guides always thinking of the clients. I give this outfitter a 5 star review Thank you Craig , Alisha, Garret and Steve and of course all the great hound dogs.
- Greg S - Had a good time. Great accommodations. Well fed, pretty sure I gained weight. 30 miles from the end of the road and have cabins, electricity and no cell service. Great get away. Got my cougar quickly and never was pressured to pull the trigger.
- Jim - This by far was one of my best memory makers of my life. Craig and the whole crew treated us like family. I have to warn you, you WILL return as it was that fantastic. You will love it
