About Chama River Outfitters

OUTDOORSMAN.COM OUTFITTER OF THE MONTH - AUGUST 2007

We at Chama River Outfitters are dedicated to the idea of offering all of our clients the opportunity of taking a good, Trophy Class animal. We offer Elk Hunting in Chama New Mexico and are very careful to lease only ranches that have a good number of quality animals. I, Bob Ball, guided my first hunter professionally, in November, 1967. Every year is even more fun than the last for Chama Elk Hunting. All of our guides are well seasoned outdoorsmen who enjoy what they do.

We understand that it is impossible for our clients to enjoy our hunts if we don't. All of our hunts are conducted on well managed, private ranches and we have exclusive hunting rights on these properties. We always limit the number of hunters on these lands, and we always enforce a set of rules and regulations to help provide a safe and enjoyable big game hunt for everyone.

Our reasonable fees include great hunting country, a well qualified guide, all meals, lodging, game retrieval and transportation to a meat cutter, expert trophy preparation and all vehicles necessary during your hunt. All hunting properties leased by Chama River Outfitters are privately owned. We lease ranches in the higher elevations for archery and early season rifle hunts and properties at lower elevations for later season migration hunts. We are careful to lease only ranches which offer the potential for quality animals.

We have an outstanding reputation for providing a good, honest, fair chase hunt for Elk Hunting Chama New Mexico. Our entire staff is proud of the fact that most of our hunters hunt with us year after year. We look forward to Elk Hunting with you.

From arrival in Chama NM and first meeting at Finas diner things could not have been handled more professionally - and with good common-sense. Bob controlled every variable he could with the exception of the weather. Food was outstanding , kitchen area was clean, food well prepared. Kitchen help went above and beyond expectations, they knew your name, what you liked to drink, how you liked eggs, etc. I could tell that Bob Ball and Shelia had done this many times before and were experts at the cause. Camp was well organized and all guidelines were given first night. Safety was a consideration and every hunter was told that if there was anything they required to let them know what it was. In the kitchen area hunters were expected to be gentlemen, and also to watch their language and offer respect to staff and other hunters. Campfire allowed the more colorful hunters to express themselves. Hunting 9000 acres is not easy but the guides were very well prepared and professional.

I have hunted with Bob & Sheila for four years with both bow and rifle. I have shot two elk one with bow and one with rifle. The cabins are very nice and the food is great. The guides and the hunt are operated in a professional manner and thier expertise show. I had a bad accident several years ago and they have gone out of thier way to accomadate my needs. You can hunt from a blind or get to the chase, whichever suites your style. It is a beautiful place with lots of elk. I recommend this hunt to anyone. You can contact me for if you wish. C. B.

The outfit was first class – Bob and Shelia were the kindest most thoughtful people. The crew was great including the cooks and one in particular stands out (Harold from Mississippi). The food was nothing short of amazing and they had way too much. I was impressed to find they had a flushing toilet & hot shower at 10,000 feet. All the cabins had electricity. One of the things that I thought would be an uncontrollable variable was that hunters, however, Bob still had that under control and all were great, quality people and clients. Bob makes sure that he only invites people back if he feels like they are up to par as a hunter and as a person. Thanks again.

Bob Ball ran a first class operation. All the hunters and guides involved were great, down-to-earth people. Bob and Sheila had a great staff. Their accommodations were warm, pre-fab cabins with bunks and heaters that could have easily slept 3-4 men. Seemed like all the guides in camp did everything they could to make the hunts successful for their clients. Bob runs a very tight operation with good, clear communication. He had a couple of hunters in camp that were physically impaired and they did everything possible to get them in the field and get them a shot at an elk. I had such a great trip and would love to go back sometime.

Dear Bob & Shelia: First of all, I want to thank you for the absolutely fantastic time at Rancho Ball during the hunt. The accommodations were the best and the food, well, y'all witnessed the carnage at the table each and every time you pur food in front of me! Shelia, you are an absolutely fantastic cook. I don't know why or how Bob stays as trim as he does...I'd be as big as a barn! It was really great. Bob, you are a fantastic guy and a fantastic guide (when your hunter listens to you). You are more knowledgeable about elk hunting than anyone I have ever met. You taught me a lot and I'll never forget it. I hope one of these days to make another hunt like that one. I will never forget the first time I heard that elk bugle...it put chills down my spine. It is one of the prettiest sounds that I have ever heard. Well I guess I better wrap this up. 'Hope the gun season went well. Sincerely, Dave Mayfield

It has been my pleasure to hunt with Chama River Outfitters of Chama, NM for the past 16 years. I have hunted elk in 5 western states with different outfitters and none compare to the experience of hunting with Bob & Shelia Ball. Bob runs a terrific hunt, from the camp, cabins and food to the very experienced personel in the guides and camphands. Shelia operates a top notch kitchen with the very best meals 3 times a day and her staff always aims to please. Bob maintains a very high quality hunt because he believes in preserving the land and animals on all the ranches he leases. Every year my wife and I look forward to our annual trip to Chama for good times and great memories. Sincerely, George Ghiglia

Dear Bob: I wanted to let you and your entire staff know how much I enjoyed my elk hunt with you. The fact that I took a nice bull just added to a great hunt. Every aspect of your operation is conducted in a totally professional manner. The guide I hunted with is the perfect example of a true professional hunter. As a result of his efforts I saw approximately 100 elk in my five days of hunting. In fact, my observation of all your guides indicated they were of similar caliber. The accommodations camp atmosphere you have established greatly enhances the enjoyment of the hunt. Additionally, the food prepared by your wife, Shelia and her helpers was absolutely outstanding. She clearly runs the best restaurant in Chama! Again, thank you for a wonderful hunting experience. You have exceptional hunting country, plenty of elk, and operate a truly professional operation. I would highly recommend anyone wanting a great Hunt to do it with CRO.

Ken and Roseann: I wanted to take this opportunity to write you and express the feelings that I and Joshua have about you two. Sometimes a person gets lucky when they meet someone new. That is how I feel. I realize that your lodge, and the hunts that you work so hard at are your livelihood, but you have put something more into the relationships that develop, and that something special is why I, and I would assume others, return for more. The effort that you two have made to make my son and me enjoy these trips has been invaluable and special. The effort that Roseann has made to meet my dietary needs has not gone unnoticed. The friendship that you extend goes beyond that of most outfitters, and beyond the hunt itself. I thank both of you for that friendship and encouragement. I have certainly felt that relationship grow with each experience that we have shared. I thank you for this and wish you and your family the best for the new year and the years beyond. I look forward to continuing this relationship and sharing the joy of the hunt with both of you in the years to come in Texas and beyond... I would also ask a favor of you, Roseann. Could you scan in the recipe for that incredible duck dish that you served and email it to me. I want to prepare that for my wife to experience.

... as you might expect I sent the pictures around to some of our friends. One friend in SC is married to a trophy hunters' daughter….I told him that you are first class all the way and are as good as any outfitter that I've hunted with. I can't brag enough about the hospitality and your attention to details ensuring that your clients have a quality experience. You are welcome to use me as a referral anytime. You know looking back it's the little things like getting camera batteries to buying cigars that make the total experience so special. I really appreciate everything you did to prepare from scouting out good places to eat. I really look forward to hunting with you again. Hopefully, I can get out to the lodge and enjoy some of that fine dinning Roseann prepares. Thanks again for the experience.

A guest writes to his hunting buddy: "Henry, I heartily recommend these folks. It's not just mule deer & whitetails. He does birds too, and elk in NM. Some of the guys I hunted with shot Sandhill Cranes. Roseann made delicious snacks out of the breasts. I'm gonna be a regular with them.
