TO: North Mountain Wild Elk Ranch
Thank You is not enough to convey my feelings, after having
completed my hunt this past weekend, (Sept. 17-20). My 6X6
Elk is a beauty and will grace the wall above my fireplace.
The meat will be shared among my family and friends for
months to come.
Your claim of a "hunt of a Lifetime" was not exaggerated.
Your staff was professional, and great camp-mates. The trip
was entertaining through out.
Anyone who believes this hunt to be anything but challenging
and a true experience just hasn't been there. My guide Dan
was experienced and knowledgeable, a great guide and
excellent cook.
My trophy and my video of this experience will allow me to
relive this trip well into the future. I would not hesitate
to return in the future.
Please consider this a rousing endorsement and testimonial.
Thanks Again, Sincerely Kenneth Link

Bob I just returned home from your ranch. My son Gregory and I
had a great time, I have been on many hunts on other ranches
and camps. However I am hard pressed to think of one that is
run better than yours. Your guides Dan & Duke were a pleasure
to hunt with & to be with. They were friendly, courteous &
kind. Thank you for having such a place to go & have a great
hunt. I wont forget our experience we enjoyed. I will highly
recommend your ranch to all my friends. I know we will be
coming back again. I will also try to get some friends to come
back with us. It is truly a special place with the best service
in the business that I have seen. I cant wait to go back & hunt
another great elk with Duke & Dan. Thanks again for everything.

Now that I have had a week to digest my hunt at North Mountain
Wild Elk Ranch I would like to share my thoughts with you. First
the lodging was terrific, just like some of the western elk camps
I had been to in the past.
Great atmosphere. The food prepared by Uncle Charlie was
delicious and abundant. The guides and Uncle Charlie could not do
enough for the guests in camp. The butcher you set me up with was
great, all processing done when promised, shrink sealed, labeled,
and flash frozen to order. I saved the best for last, the hunt,
This was much more challenging than I had expected, I came in
with the feeling this was probably not going to be much of a hunt
based on other operations I am aware of by talking to my clients.
I could not have been more wrong. The insistence of my guide ,
Duke, that scent lock suits were a must for bow hunting took me
by surprise but I came prepared with 2 sets. The animals were
elusive and spooky, when they saw or scented us first, which was
most of the time, all we saw was their back end as they headed
for safer cover. We were not "tripping" over animals and had to
use our best whitetail hunting skills to even get a good look
with enough time to evaluate a bull. In fact we were unable to
get an opportunity at all the first day. We finally got a chance
to take a great herd bull during the afternoon of the second day
in the rain while he tried to round up about 10-12 cows that had
spotted us, fortunately he had the cows on his mind which gave me
a chance to take him with a rifle, I do not like to take a shot
with a bow in the rain, I know Duke wanted me to not attempt a
rifle shot until the last day, but he was just too nice a bull to
pass on. The whole experience was fantastic, and I hope you keep
things running this way.
You have a tremendous area of land to hunt, beautifully wooded
mountains and valleys with tons of room. I will not hesitate to
recommend your hunts to my clients as they look at the shoulder
mount of this great bull when they enter my studio. One more word
about the guides, great. Thank you for taking the time to read
this long winded letter, but I did not want to leave out any
aspect of the hunt.

Dear Bob, Harold, Duke, Bill, and Pat, Many thanks again for the best hunting adventure I've had in 31
years! Bob, your recommendations throughout my entire
experience from my arrival in Wellsboro, PA to my departure were
right on target. Duke was superb as a guide! Harold, Duke, Bill,
and Pat were so helpful and made me feel like family. I must
admit, "the 5x5 helped also." Feel free to use me as a reference. I'll be staying in touch
in the years to come! Remember, if you come toward Orlando,
Florida, look me up and I'll take you large mouth bass fishing
for the "lunker." Sincerely,
Lt. Colonel Stephen P. Boyer, USAF (Ret.)

Wildelkranch,
I've been fortunate to have hunted all my life and this simply is as
much fun as I've ever had hunting. What an amazing experience-
from the terrain hunted in, to the amazing animals, to the incredibly
helpful staff it was awesome! In fact, my guide was so much fun it
was simply like going out and hunting with your best buddy. I can't
wait to come back!

From: anthony c. To: <mailto:wildelkranch@hotmail.com> Subject: Re: Thank You! I just wanted to take a minute here and reach out to say "Thank You" for working with me for the past few months to pull off what I really think was the trip of a life time for my Dad and I.
I have to tell you for him, and me, it's just starting to sink in what took place over the past few days. When I dropped him off in Pa. yesterday and he starting calling my brothers and sisters-he was so "jacked up" that my sister sent me a note saying she had not heard him sound so young in years...I called my brother in Ca. to tell him how things went and he said he had already heard from my Dad! As for me, I lead a large team of people for my company and I have to tell you the "team" you have assembled is one to be proud of. Our guides Josh and Dewey were awesome...accomodating, professional, not pushy and down right cool when it came to the experience. I got a chnace to talk with Billy and Duke as well and those guys are top notch. I think the icing on the cake of your team is YOUR Dad, Uncle Charlie, he was phenominal...at one point I thought he and my Dad were going to start showing each other old scars they got along so well. Well, today we are back in the "real world" but I have to tell you...having planned and taken the trip to North Mtn Wild Elk Ranch makes it a whole lot easier. Please share this note with the guides and your Dad...and feel free to use me as a reference anytime. I am already beginning to think how we might get back there soon...with my brothers this time! Take care, Anthony D. C. Jr.
From: Quinn & Debbie To: Bob Little Subject: Wild Elk Ranch
Hi,
Just a quick note to say hello and introduce ourselves to you....
our names are Quinn & Debbie H.... just got back from our elk
hunt at the North Mountain Wild Elk Ranch.... they sent us an e-mail
asking us to give you a buzz regarding our hunt.... we did try to
call, however, for some reason the call would not go through.... so
please give us a call this evening.... I have to tell you that we
had a grand time up there.... we have been on "canned hunts",
as we call them, in the past, but this was definitely NOT a "canned
hunt".... these elk are wild.... and the closest thing we
can compare it to is hunting for white tail deer in the woods....
it took us 2-1/2 days to get a bull and it is definitely a
challenge.... we had a great time.... accommodations were
excellent... the food was excellent.... the place is huge and the
people are a delight.... we would recommend North Mountain Wild Elk
Ranch whole-heartedly to anyone with apprehensions.... and we'll
be glad to chat with you about our experience, so please give
us a buzz....
If you would, please reply to this e-mail so that I know you received
it... and ask any questions you so desire..... I'll answer to the
best of my ability.... I can also send some pictures if you would
like.... just let me know....
Have a wonderful day and we'll be looking forward to hearing from
you ASAP....
Debbie

BOB---YOUR PEOPLE, THE FACILITIES, AND THE HUNT ALL EXCEEDED
MY EXPECTATIONS. THE MEALS WERE 5 STAR! I HAVE SOME GREAT
MEMORIES TO HOLD ME OVER UNTIL I CAN VISIT THE RANCH AGAIN.
USE ME FOR A REFERENCE ANYTIME! JIM
"First, we would like to thank you for a most
enjoyable and successful elk hunt.
Next, we would like you to know we have been on
big game hunts in Wyoming, Montana, Colorado and
New Mexico; none of them compare to our experience
at North Mountain Wild Elk Ranch.
As you know, we had many skeptical fellow
hunters when we advised them we were going to hunt
with you. But fence or no fence, your free roaming
elk can and will provide a challenge for even the
most experienced hunters. Your elk herd, lodge
facilities, the young guide you assigned to us, the
menu and food preparation are all five star..." |

"I'm writing this letter on a Tuesday and the
smile is still on my face. What a terrific
experience I had thanks to you.
I've been dreaming of an elk hunt ever since
I've been a teenager and I couldn't have designed
a hunt any better than the one I had at your North
Mountain, Wild Elk Ranch.
Along with you, my guide, Chuck, and your dad
delivered everything you promised and more. I
thank all of you for the hunt of a lifetime..." |
