From the Mouths of Auction Winners...

I was the highest bidder for the Elk Hunting Experience offered by Dale Campbell and Jay Minor. The setting is at their LBH Ranch near Monument, Oregon, on the breaks of the John Day River. I was stirred to make this investment by the rave reviews given by Jim Hirte who bought this opportunity at the auction five years ago. I must admit, although somewhat reluctantly, that my expectations were exceeded by the reality. The reluctance comes from creating too much interest in this opportunity going forward – not leaving an opportunity to win this experience again.

My success in tagging a bull elk on each outing is a part of what endears this adventure to me; frankly speaking I would have been almost as satisfied without having fired a shot. As most elk hunters know, there is a high degree of randomness in close encounters of the shooting kind when it comes to the topic of bull elk.

What sets this adventure apart are:

A) The people that you interact with on the hunt – you will not find any more gracious hosts than Dale and Jay. You will also meet and get too know a number of other local citizens who are really great human beings.

B) The accommodations – the housing is first class and right in the middle of the hunt.

C) The scenery – the deep eroded canyons set apart by the barren flat topped ridges offer unending vistas into the handiwork of mother nature’s artistry.

D) The style of the hunt – the story here is long, but suffice it to say, this elk hunt will be different than any you have ever experienced!

E) The expectation of result – it is related to previous point, but you know how if you have not seen animals on opening morning of elk season there is a sense that the season is done and that the rest of this season will be just going through the motions, well here it’s different – it seems “elky” whenever you are out. Most of the elk taken have been late season.

F) The presentation – the food is flat out awesome!

G) The work – this is not a drive around until you see 'em and then shoot 'em experience. You must be engaged and attuned to be successful.

I could not be more satisfied with my investment.
