DRAW SYSTEM EXPLAINED

APPLICATIONS:

Nevada has an application website that requires users to create an account before applying. Applicants will need to be logged in to their account in order to apply. If you apply for points only your application deadline has a one-week extension over the regular application season deadline.

DETAILS OF THE DRAW:

Nevada gives you five hunt choices when applying. When an applicant is drawn, all five choices are considered before the next applicant is drawn. Currently Zero Guide Fees covers your first 2 choices but may change this in the future to all 5 choices.

POINT STRUCTURE:

Nevada has a bonus point system where you receive one point per species for each year you are unsuccessful in the drawing and have purchased a hunting license. Unsuccessful applicants who choose not to purchase the license do not gain a bonus point. Bonus points are then squared. For example: if you have 4 points for elk, 4 x 4 plus this years applications equals 17 (bonus points) chances in this years drawing. The max number of points increases by one each year. If an applicant fails to apply for points in two consecutive years they will lose all of their bonus points.

DRAW SYSTEM EXPLAINED

APPLICATIONS:

To apply online, go to www.wildlife.utah.gov clicking on the hunting tab, and going to the “Permits and Drawings” section. You may also apply via telephone by calling any Division of Woldlife Resource office. The application timeframe for all big game species is Jan. 28th—March 4th. The application deadline is 11:00pm MST for telephone applications on March 4th. Drawing results will be posted by May 31st. Up to four hunters can apply as a group for limited-entry deer, elk, and antelope. You must have a valid Utah hunting license to apply, and you can purchase one at the time you apply.

DETAILS OF THE DRAW:

Utah issues 10% of their draw permits to non-residents. Out of that 10% half will go to a random draw applicants and the other half to max point holders. Everyone’s first choice is considered before anyone’s second choice and so on. The waiting period for successful applicants for limited-entry deer is five years. If you draw a limited-entry antelope permit, you cannot apply again for those permits for two years. The waiting period for limited-entry elk is five years. Bighorn sheep, bull moose, mountain goat, and bison are once-in-a-lifetime permits, regardless of harvest success.

POINT STRUCTURE:

Utah has a bonus point system for limited-entry deer, elk, antelope, bison, mountain goat, moose, and both bighorn sheep species. Bonus points are species specific and are not transferable between species. The bonus point system is designed to increase the chances of drawing a permit. Every year that you apply and are not successful, you will receive a bonus point for that species. You may also purchase points only if you cannot actually hunt if you were to get drawn for that year. In essence, for each point you have, you are entered one additional time into the drawing which will increase you chances of drawing.

Story of Guide Life

My Story

My name is Travis McClendon and I have been hunting in the west since I was 10 years old. My dad, John McClendon started a very successful outfitting company called McClendon’s & Sons Guide service in the early 1980s and was a pioneer in the outdoor film industry at a time when very few were filming hunts. I went to work for my dad when I turned 18, over 28 years ago and my passion for hunting and the outdoors has remained high ever since. In recent years I have watched as Outfitter and Guide fees have become more and more expensive, making hunting a rich man sport. So, I created a solution to change that and make hunting with a guide available to anyone who wants to maximize their hunt of a lifetime with the help of a real professional. That solution is called the Zero Guide Fees program. This program uses the power of a large membership base to make it possible for those who desire to use an outfitter the means to do so. Our members pay a small yearly membership fee and in return, we pay for their fully outfitted hunts when they draw.

Business Background:

Travis McClendon is the founding owner of Zero Guide Fees LLC and the owner of Arizona Elk Outfitters LLC and Arizona Strip Guides LLC. Travis was born and raised in the depths of the professional trophy hunting and outdoor video industries. An Arizona native and full-time professional outfitter and videographer, Travis & his companies have produced many world-class trophies for their clients over the years. His tireless work ethic and obsession with trophy elk and mule deer make him one of the most sought after and successful trophy elk and mule deer guides in the west. Travis is one of the most experienced elk and mule deer guides in the state of Arizona and brings a lifetime of trophy elk and mule deer hunting experience to the Arizona Strip Guides team. Both Arizona Elk Outfitters and Arizona Strip Guides are proud to have Travis McClendon as part of our dedicated team of trophy elk and mule deer hunting professionals.

WHO WE ARE

Zero Guide Fees is comprised of two primary founding members as well as many key people who have helped make this program a reality. Like most hunters, we too, have wanted to go on outfitted hunts and just didn’t have the funds to do so. So we created a program that allows anyone, with any budget, the ability to have a fully outfitted hunt without having to sell the farm to do it. It is our belief that quality outfitted hunts CAN be affordable to everyone under the Zero Guide Fees Program and that this program will allow more people and younger people to experience the sheer euphoria of a guided trophy hunt in the West.
