How this guy has been in businees since 1939 is beyond me. Tom Brogans representations of his Outfitting business is a complete scam. He's all about moving as many hunters as he can thru his barebone operations during the big game season. Let me share a little of my story with you....) Four guys left the first day because of the poor accomodations.) Two guys left 2 days later because of the lack of game and accomodations.)Guide to hunter ratio was around 5 guys to every one guide and even then all the guide did was drop you off on the top of a small section of mountain and tell you he'd see you at 4 p.m. at the bottom of the hill. The guides were all very nice but had WWWAAAYYYY to many hunters for the amount of ground they had access to.... I feel sorry for the guys 2 weeks from now who will be hunting the same piece of ground 40 other hunters have tramped around on before them!) Toms idea of "private" land were small sections of leased land in the middle of public hunting areas. Don't even ask how many hunters we saw opening day.) Kool aid was served with every meal and his idea of "happy hour" was luke warm bush beer in a metal bowl.) After 4 days of hunting 20 some hunters saw one bull, a few cows in the next county and no mule deer.Tom also offered hunting on his leases on the low lands but nothing of any quality was seen.I could go on and on but suffice to say, Tom Brogans Guide and Outfitting is all "smoke and mirrors". I have a suggestion... Get out of the business
