**Everything went perfectly. To understand how unique this horseback hunt truly is, you need to know a few details.** First of all, Dustin is running a huge company, which makes it even more impressive how quickly he responds to inquiries (as long as he has cell service – something that is far from guaranteed in the Yukon, and everyone should understand that). I was fortunate enough to be flown into base camp on a beautiful day. This was the starting point for our 9-day hunt, and there I met my guide and wrangler. Another team was also in camp at that time. The friendliness and professionalism of those guides were outstanding as well. For anyone worried about running into other hunters: this was the only contact, and we had absolutely no overlap during the hunt. From there we spent nine days in the wilderness. You may stay in tents, in small cabins, or – like in base camp – in a larger cabin. The incredible landscape and vastness of this hunting area are simply breathtaking. Traveling by horseback allows you to cover an impressive amount of country. I was lucky – though I believe this applies to all of Dustin’s guides – to be paired with a incredibly hardworking guide and wrangler. Being the last hunter of the season, I was amazed at how hard Tim and Mac were still working after 80 days in the backcountry. This alone gave me complete confidence in everything they did, and that trust is essential. Every hunter, especially European hunters, needs to let go of the idea that you will see game behind every corner. Only then can you enjoy the hunt from the very first day. This is true wilderness, and that affects wildlife behavior. All the more fascinating it is when you finally encounter a moose or another species. If you are fortunate enough to harvest a moose, you will be impressed by the professionalism that follows. From field dressing and quartering the animal, to packing it out, and eventually leaving camp (in my case a full trail-out) – everything was handled with absolute skill and care. It was a worthy ending to a true hunt of a lifetime. I can wholeheartedly recommend Dustin as an outfitter. One small piece of advice: to truly enjoy a horseback hunt, make sure to take a few riding lessons beforehand. **Thank you, Dustin, for making my lifelong dream come true.**

Game , accommodation , food , guides , great experience!

Had a great hunt with Bob! Missouri had a hot weekend for the rifle opener this year, which made it tough for everyone, but everyone still saw deer and at least one good buck. Half of us were tagged out with nice bucks by the second evening (myself included) I will be back!

All very well organized. All run smoothly. No problem at all.

Shan and Sali run a great camp. Good accommodations and excellent food (and plenty of it). Harold and Larry were knowledgeable and talented guides. Harold spotted and tracked this "trophy Bull" for two days, sensing where it would be we headed out and eventually were able to take it down. A wonderful hunting experience in the wilderness of Newfoundland.

Paul and Marilyn run a fantastic operation. Not only did we see a lot of game but the hospitality was fantastic as well. If you didn't even go hunt and just stayed back to eat Marilyn's homemade food, it would be worth it :)

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

We stalked from the moment we got out of the car until we were successful. Lots of game and excellent trophy quality. Wonderful guides, Ivan and Neil were both exceptional. I will be going back in May.

Everything, from accommodations to the passion of the guides

All things, all people
