So much of a hunt comes down to the outfitter and guide. Both were excellent, just great people who treated me very well. The hunting area was breathtaking and had abundant animals. Lodging and food were top notch too.

Jordan is professional, knowledgeable, and a fantastic host as well. He knows the terrain and the animals inside and out.

Diversity of game and hunting grounds, knowledgeable Ph/guides, high end lodge. Nick and his team go out of their way to make sure you have a good time and successful hunt, and feel like family while you are with them.

We hunted with Juan and Lauren in early October 2025 after booking a 4-animal spiral-horn package. I am STILL excited a month later! This hunt was absolutely incredible! My initial package had included Waterbuck, Eland, Nyala, and Bushbuck. Additionally, we had expressed interest in taking Fallow Deer, Caracal, Bushpig, and Warthog. Ultimately, we took the Waterbuck, Nyala, Bushbuck, and Bushpig from the initial wishlist. We had solid opportunities at trophy Eland and Warthog, but weren't able to follow through. This was entirely on us and had nothing to do with the opportunities or trophy quality. Additionally, we were also able to take White Blesbuck, Black Springbuck, a gorgeous Lechwe and a Duiker when the opportunities for those animals presented. Juan and Lauren worked incredibly hard every single day to make sure that we had a world-class experience, and they succeeded across the board. The hunting was truly world-class. The accommodations at both concessions were incredible. The staff and lodge owners/managers were all very inviting. The meals were superb.......I am hopeful that I can hunt with them again in 2026. Thank you so much, LJ Safaris!

Dustin and his team are extremely knowledgeable when it comes to elk hunting! They were able to get me and my fiancé on two beautiful bulls in three days! We spot in stalked my bull for 3 to 4 miles playing a cat and mouse calling game with it until it finally presented a 60 yard shot! It didn’t run more than 50 yards before a piled up. My fiancé‘s was a much shorter spot in stock which presented a 200 yard shot and they dropped right in its tracks. Overall, this was one of the most exciting and amazing hunting experiences I’ve ever had! The whole team showed up and helped pack out both bulls and they even delivered it to the Taxidermist for us and the meat processor! Just went above and beyond for us and we look forward to booking many more hunts with him!

Great guide

My son Tim and I had an outstanding mountain lion hunt with Ira as our outfitter/guide. I’ve followed hounds for decades, and the work shown by Ira’s dogs was some of the best I’ve ever witnessed. The country ranged from flat desert to rugged, rough terrain, making for a challenging and authentic hunt. Beyond the hunt itself, we were treated to excellent home-cooked meals prepared by Ira’s wife, Kyra, and enjoyed meeting their young boys. This was one of the easiest reviews I’ve ever written—it was a first-class experience all around, we’ll be going back again next year.

The experience Justin makes every effort to make the hunt successful and pleasant

My brother and I took our dad on a surprise elk hunting trip and chose to use Texas Wildlife. It was all of our first time elk hunting or hiring a guide. Matthew was knowledgeable, accommodating, and always prepared. He communicated well before the hunt, but didn't over promise. He answered all our many questions and we felt prepared when we arrived. The weather was too warm and the elk were not moving much. Matthew was able to adapt his hunting style every day to what was actually happening. He also took our input and adjusted setups to better fit our preferred hunting style. Matthew was great to talk to. It felt like we were hunting with a new best friend. All of Matthew's equipment, side by sides, etc was in great working order. The property he is guiding on is beautiful and a target rich environment. We saw many elk along with, mule deer, elk, and all kinds of bear sign. (Bear were in hibernation). We all 3 had multiple opportunities at elk and were able to all punch our tags with some time to spare. Even if we would have only harvested one elk we would have thought it was a successful trip. We went to Colorado to try out elk hunting and make some great memories. Matthew made sure we had an excellent trip. We couldn't have asked for anything more.

My outfitter did everything to ensure I would be successful. Can’t say enough good things about Tim.
