If you decide to book with us I cannot promise that you will harvest, because this is real hunting for real hunters. Our goals are realistic and we expect to achieve them. As always weather, bad luck or hunters physical condition and shooting ability, all play a factor in his success. However we will do all we can but harvest your animals for you and strive to provide you shooting opportunities. We want your expectations to be accurate and realistic. We want to offer you a true sporting chance at perhaps the most majestic North American trophies in their natural environment- playing by their rules, matching our skills against their superior instincts. We believe this is what hunting is all about and this is why these magnificent creatures are to be admired and respected by the sportsman as we do. Few outfitters offer the complete package and personalized services as we do. Pound for pound, dollar for dollar we believe that our hunts are the best value n the business. We want you to have a first class experience and believe you are getting what you pay for with LocKey U Outfitters. After hunting this area I can promise you that you wail not go home without leaving a part of your soul here in Idaho. This rugged and beautiful country will reach into you and steal a part of you. That missing part will be calling you back and we hope you will want to come and see us again. We will be more than happy to give you a list of references after speaking to you.
