Information about Elk Hunting

Featuring some of the top Elk hunting outfitters including Weathered Horn Outfitters, Utah, W3 Outfitters, Colorado, and Rick Wemple Outfitting, Montana.

About Elk: Elk are the second largest species of deer in the world and one of the largest mammals in North America and eastern Asia. Elk range in forest and forest-edge habitat.

Their high level of adaptability poses a threat to endemic species and ecosystems where they have been introduced. Male elk have large antlers which are shed each year, providing them with a means of defense. The elk bugle call is on of the most distinctive calls in nature. [Wiki]

Rick is an awesome outfitter. He runs probably the best Guide and Pack School in the west. Besides Rick being a great guy, he is also a good friend. Words don't put in perspective the quality of outfit Rick operates.

Can a cow elk hunt be a hunt of a life time. It can when hunt with Paul Moore. As an outfitter Paul is fantastic. Works very hard to make sure your hunt is everything you want. As a person, he is sincere and enjoys hunting and guiding. We felt welcomed the minute we stepped out of our car. The hunting was tough with deep snow and cold temps. Paul put us on elk every day. He allowed us to hunt the way we wanted(spot and stalk). It was a like a dream hunting in the mountains. My buddy shot his elk on the first day. I shot mine on the last. Every day was fun and truly enjoyable. The food was great. The other hunter in camp was a pleasure to hunt with, and he shot his first animal ever. It was a great experience!! W3 Outfitters will be seeing us for many years to come. Thanks again Paul for making this a very special hunt.

I had the pleasure of Elk Hunting with Paul Moore of W3 outfitters this past September of '07. Paul Moore and I were archery hunting by spot and stalking/calling. During the course of five days I saw over 40 Bull Elk. Paul called four Bulls in archery range for me. One bull came in and winded me, I missed a Pope & Young bull in a meadow by miss judging the distance, and on the fifth day of the hunt Pual put 10 bulls in front of me. Two of which I had in Bow range, one bull would not stop in a clear shooting lane and the other came screaming in and stopped 15 yards away quartering to me providing no shot.Paul Mooore provided me with an excellent hunt from the time I met him in Maybell until the day I left.THe accomodations were great and so was the company. If you are interested in a "traditional" horseback Elk hunt look no further than Paul Moore W3 Outfitters.-John OHara

My grandson and I went on an Elk Hunt last December, 2005 with W-3 Outfitters. Our season opened at 7 AM and by 8 AM we both had our Elk. Paul made sure that anything I might have needed was provided as I am disabled. I have had a Heart Attack, By-Pass Surgery, I have Sylicosis and am also a Diabetic. Paul does his homework regarding the migration of the Elk. He knows where they go each day and how to find them. He takes a range finder along to make sure you have a true and accurate yardage for your shot. The average shot is 300 yards. My wife also came with us even though she doesn't hunt and had a great time. I can highly recommend W-3 Outfitters for a premium guide service. Their success rate is the best I have ever encountered. In three days we saw over 300 Elk not to mention the Mule Deer and Antelope. Paul gave my grandson and I a hunting trip that will never be forgotten. Our memories are priceless. (Paul is one of the most honest men that I have ever encountered.)

I have had the pleasure to bow hunt with Paul and Adam twice. I killed a pope and young bull in 2003 and had a great opportunity on a big bull in 2005. I have bow hunted the west many times,but I have never seen a many legal bulls as with W3 outfitters. W3's camps are well run and maintained. The food is great! Paul's horses are gentle and are well trained. The hunt is not as demanding as some mountain hunts due to the flat tops. You should expect to see mule deer, bear and lots of elk. You will have a great time and make a good friend .

I've hunted with Paul at W-3 for 10 years and have been successful 90% of the time. Paul cares about his hunters and strives to provide a quality experience each time. The area has one of the largest elk populations in the nation. The beauty of the area is worth the price of the hunt( high mountain meadows, streams, dark timber). Paul is a truthful person and won't tell you there's a 360 bull behind every tree. You won't be disappointed!

hunted wth W3 Outfitters in Colorado for the past 7 years. I have hunted with this outfitter in both unit #12 as well as at Spear Head Ranch area units # 3,11 and 211. I have nothing but good things to say about this outfitter. His outfit gives 110% to the client. Nothing fancy about this outfitter...just a great hunting experience. Plenty of elk in his areas. It you are looking for a really good hunt, give them a call to book your hunt. You won't be sorry!

We have hunted with W3 for many years,and find that W3 is an exceptional outfit. We prefer the spike camp compared to the guided hunts, we'd rather do things for ourselves. Paul and Adam place their spike camps in prime elk country. We have shot elk in view of our camp and also up to a mile away. The camps have all you need, wall tent, wood stove, cots with pads, gas lanterns and stoves, and cut firewood. Someone - Paul, Adam, or a hand will check on you daily to see if you need anything. If you have an elk down, they'll pack it out to the base camp and even haul it to a processor if you like. We have hunted Montana, Wyoming and Colorado, and by far this is the best outfit we have come across.

Paul took my wife and I into the mountains of Colorado for a wonderful time. The view was out of this world, the camp was very comfortable, the food was great and we experienced things that I have dreamed about since I was a young boy playing cowboy. Riding though the high mountain meadows enjoying the wild flowers and then there was elk everywhere, they were as surprised as us. We enjoyed this vacation as much as anything we have every done and we want to go back again. Thanks Paul for a great time.

Phoncon with Paul Moore of W3 Outfitters. Common sense, sincere, candid, and honest - the things that come to mind post conversation. We selected him as 'Outfitter of the Month' for May 2006. The selection was based on the amount and quality of voluntary client reviews on OUTDOORSMAN. W3 Outfitters feedback has been unquestionably positive, we have yet to see a negative response or unhappy client. It is clear that Pauls integrity and camp demeanor is as important to his clients as a successful hunt. Truly a “man’s-man”.

I have been on two deer/elk combo hunts with the crew at Weatheredhorn and I can honestly say these were the best guided hunts I`ve ever been on. Not only was I successful filling my tags with quality animals, it was the crew and the amenities that really made the trip truley enjoyable. The cabins are comfortable and heated, the shower rooms were clean, heated and had everything you needed. The food is outstanding! Dinners with full bird turkeys with all the trimmings to rib steaks to prime rib. Lunnches pretty much what ever you want. They will have a couple of different soups, several types of lunch meats & breads, mac salad, chips etc. But if there is something you particularly wanted just ask the cook. If he`s got it, he`ll make it. Breakfast followed suit. Eggs the way you want `em, fresh hot biscuts, pancakes and on & on! The staff, well.....NONE better! Not only are they what I`d call "Good `Ol Boys", they will do whatever it takes to make your hunt successful , enjoyable & Fun!
