Outfitters must be registered, bonded and insured to operate in Colorado and have permits to operate on public lands. If your outfitter is operating illegally, you run the risk of having your hunt canceled in progress and your game confiscated if your outfitter is arrested. Knowingly contracting with an illegal outfitter could result in felony convictions for all hunters involved. You may not have legal recourse if you are injured or your illegal outfitter does not provide the services you purchased. -;t.. Things to Ask to Be Sure Your Outfitter is Properly Registered: • Are you registered with the Colorado Office of Outfitters Registrations? • If so what is your registration number? • Will we be hunting on public lands at any time? • If so, do you have a Bureau of Land management or U.S. Forest Service permit?
Other Indication of an Illegal Outfitter: • Outfitter does not provide a written contract. • Outfitter counsels you not to talk to State or Federal officers or asks you to say you're just friends or family hunting together.
Protect Yourself Verify your outfitter's registration

hunting with a outfitter will improve your chances of a sucsessful trip,but in my opinion it is like finding a good used car salesman there are a lot of good ones ,but there is also a lot of bad ones out there .that said when you hunt with a good outfitter even if you dont tag out you still have a great trip ,and that is what its all about

If your looking for a great Elk & Mulie Licensed Outfitter in SW Colorado get in touch with me and I can send you brochures. SW Colorado is well known for it's trophy Mulies & Elk and their ranches have plenty. I've seen Bucks well over 30" and Bulls in the mid to upper 300's. Bow, Muzzleloader, Rifle.
Many quality animals taken from their ranches and an overall quality hunt is their ultimate goal. I can vouch for their services personally.

I know the Maine registered Master Guides have the necessary experience to help ya in case you get into trouble! I believe they need 10 years experience guiding to reach the Master Guide designation.
