Yes, you will save money. The 2007 price for the non-resident outfitter sponsored elk/mule deer combination license is $1195. The price for the same combination license is only $635 if you apply through the general draw. You save $560 by doing it this way.
However, outfitter sponsored licenses have numerous
advantages over the general draw license. First of all, the outfitter
license is guaranteed! You know you're going to get one in the mail
in May when they are mailed out. Second, if you book with Wilderness
Connection early enough, you can reserve the hunting week of your choice.
Since you know you're going to have a license, you don't need to wait
until May to book the hunt of your choice. In fact, several of our weeks
are typically filled up by May when the general draw results are posted.
If you are spending $635 on a general draw license, and book with us for a price of $3750, you are spending a total of $4385 on your hunt. For almost $600 more you can reserve the date of your choice, and you know you'll get to hunt this year. Yes, $600 is a lot of money. It's half a mortgage payment or even a new gun! However, it is nice to know, and know in advance, that you're going to Montana this fall on an unforgettable combination hunt.
