"I want to thank you for the excellent turkey hunt – it could not have been better. 
The scenery was beautiful and there was plenty of deer, antelope, birds and prairie dogs. 
This was by far the best turkey hunt I have had. What made it so good was not just
the hunting of and shooting two nice toms, but the extras, sightseeing, and prairie dog hunting. 
On all the other out-of-state guided turkey hunts I have been on, you shoot
your turkeys and that is it, you go back to the lodge and sit around and read a book,
or go home early.  That is not the case with Jim’s hunts. 
He showed me much of the landscape on the back roads of eastern Montana,
met some interesting folks and shot a lot of .17 HMR cartridges at prairie dogs.
These was no spare time to sit around reading books-we were on the go constantly. 
I sure got my money’s worth.  I hope to hunt with you folks again."
Garry H., Massachusetts

"Thanks for the excellent care while we were your guests.
The fellows rated it right up there with Jack Holman's No Seeum Lodge in Alaska
and thats as good as it gets. Many thanks."
Bill C., Wyoming

"I have hunted with Jim and Joyce many times since 1995 including this past year.
They have great areas to hunt for mulies, whitetail and other species.
I would have to say that my favorite thing about hunting with them is the hunt itself.
It is extremely fair chase since the boundaries are the endless for the area
that these animals can range...so you never know what you might run into.
I hunt Texas alot, and went there after my trip to Montana with Jim,
and I felt like I was shooting deer in Texas instead of hunting."
Jack H., Tennessee

"I didn't think it could get better, but it has. Everything has been great.
My friends were amazed about 'the Horn.' Be back next year."
Jim K., California

"Rippin' world-class fishing...AGAIN! Year 12 -- how long can this go on?"
Duke D. (Boulder Boys), Colorado

"Great Fishing. Great Guides. Great Food. Great Beds. Great Staff.
Did good on the weather too."
Ed T., Ohio

"We just finished our twentieth year fishing with Stretch.
He had the opportunity to initiate the third generation of my family to fish with him.
The young man was somewhat disappointed that he did not catch a 30" trout.
He did, however, land two 23" trout. It was pure joy to watch Stretch and my grandson
bounding down the river after a hot hooked rainbow, which they duly landed."
Norm H., Ohio

"This has been one of the most wonderful vacations ever!
Stretch is a master and an artist, and I will be back."
Burton P., California

"A trip planned for a close friend became my trip of a lifetime...hopefully to be
repeated many times. Jim/Stretch is a superb host and guide."
Tom M., Arizona

"A great fishing experience and the feasting of elegant food made it even
more pleasant. The people of Montana are my kind. I envy their lifestyle. "
Moke A., Arizona

"Few things are perfect in life - this experience qualifies in every aspect!
Thanks, we'll be back."
Marcus S., Colorado

"Just wanted to let you know about the fantastic time we all had this
year up on the Bighorn. Great fishing and outstanding hospitality."
Dave K., California

"What a fantastic weekend at your guest house!
We can't thank you enough for your kindness & hospitality.
Best of all, it gave us a reason to get the entire family together, something
that doesn't happen nearly enough."

"Thank you for a wonderful time. You are perfect host and hostess and I look

Ira H., New York

"I cannot say enough good about Jim, his accommodations, his love of the outdoors,
his scouting, his equipment and his hospitality. He runs a first class outfit."
Pat M., Kentucky

"Many thanks and much appreciation for your strong commitment to our hunt.
I never saw either the antelope doe or the buck's horns.
When they got up, you told me which was the buck, and I with a single shot
at 200 plus yards, dropped it. (267 yards actual). A team effort with great results.
Deer scenerio was even better. You knew the area and the habits of the deer.
It was a great experience."
Les. T. Sr., California

"Limit of ducks. Excellent dinners. Great rest and relaxation all nights.
We'll be back."
John & Chuck Y., Idaho
