Is booking a hunting guide worth the money?
Hiring a guide provides a number of benefits and many choose to book a hunting guide for a combination of experience, local knowledge, convenience, and cost-effectiveness.
Working with experienced hunting guides who know the best local spots and techniques can dramatically increase your odds of a great day. Having someone who is outside every day and knows the area like the back of their hand is going to give you the best chances of success.
Booking a guide is also more cost effective, especially if you only get out a handful of times per year. When you consider all of the costs you would incur on your own such as the price of a boat, maintenance, insurance, gas, high-quality gear, repairs, and more, you’ll find that DIY is sometimes not worth the expense.
Even if you’ve got a great setup already in your backyard, booking a guide also provides a great opportunity to experience new techniques, new locations, or even a chance at a new target species to knock off the bucket list.
What month is best for going on a rifle hunting trip?

Had a great time! Charles was easy to communicate with during the planning stage and was fun to be around during our trip. He went the extra mile to make sure we had fun and got some big iguanas.

Trip: Iguana Hunt
Captain Brett was awesome. Put us on some action. He was polite and easy to get along with. He went above and beyond, tying to help with taxidermist and make recommendations for dinner and things to do in the area. Will be booking with him again.

Dominic was awesome! Very polite and professional, and shared all his knowledge on local species. We had an absolute blast and can not wait to come back and do it again!
