Testimonials from our satisfied clients "I hunted with Beaver Creek Outfitters the second week in November. I had never been on a guided hunt before and I must say it was everything I expected and more. The livestock was excellent. The food was better than home. I saw game (elk and mule deer) every day I was there. I hope to go back and I would recommend booking a hunt with Clayton. You'll get your money's worth." "My memory of my hunt with you is almost as good as the days I spent with you. My Montana elk is on the wall just inside my front door and I get to see it every day. Hope to see you again sometime in the future." Truman Wilkin
"Thank you for a wonderful trip... I really had a good time and you were more than gracious and helpful to me. I look forward to our next trip." "I hunted with the Beaver Creek Outfitters in the little Belt Mountains in Lewistown Montana for Elk and Mule Deer in 1996. The only thing I can say - it was excellent. The food, guides, horses and camp was great. Very nice people. You Guys are #1. Thanks." Gary Troitte
"I know I was fortunate to be in the mountains when the weather was perfect and the game was moving about, but I also appreciate all the work you and Dean put into making my trip as memorable as it turned out. I couldn't ask for better food or accommodations, and I know if other hunters had gotten the same weather conditions, they would have had equally successful hunts. As I told you on arrival in Montana, I only hoped to see game and get a shot for me to consider my hunt successful. " "The week I spent with you far exceeded any expectations I had. To shoot a 6x5 elk on the first day in the camp was a foretaste of the week to follow, and shooting a nice mule deer Thursday topped off the week. By my count in the journal I kept, I saw over 300 head of elk during the week, and over 100 mule deer. At least ten of the elk I saw were legal bulls, several of which were branch antlered, and at least one of those was larger than the one I killed. I will certainly recommend you to my friends and family, and hope to be able to return and hunt with you again." Bill Purswell
"This was my first Elk hunt and I had a great time. Beaver Creek, Outfitters was a first class operation. The food was outstanding as was the service shown to the clients. The outfitter, guides and the cook went out of their way to give everybody a great hunt. The whole crew was friendly and sociable, there was a lot of good natured ribbing. I hunted the last week of November and we saw game everyday. I took a 6x5 Elk and a 4x4 Mule Deer on the third full day of the hunt. The animals were taken within a two hour period. For a first hunt this was one hell of a start. I only hope its not my last. I would highly recommend this hunt. I hope to hunt with Clayton again someday." Frank E. Kosloski
"Special. That's the word that comes to mind every time I think of the times we've hunted together over the past twenty years. I feel very privileged to have been the first person to hunt with you when you began to outfit and guide. You've always been more than an outfitter or guide, you've been a friend. No matter what happens that makes each trip worth while. Never have I been disappointed. In fact, in the five times I've hunted with you each hunt has been better than the previous. Each time I come you have made it easier and more enjoyable to hunt and find game. The food has always been exceptional. Everyone went out of their way to make sure we enjoyed our hunt and had all the supplies necessary to be comfortable and successful on our hunt. Especially was I impressed with the amount of game seen on this hunt. The deer I shot was the largest I've ever killed. He will definitely wind up on a wall in my study for others to see. The thing which impressed me was the number of large racks we saw during the week that may have been larger. Thanks for an exceptional hunt and for your friendship. We will be back and hope to have a group which will fill the camp for a week." Jimmy W. Holloway
"Clayton, First let me say that I thoroughly enjoyed hunting with yall this year. although I was disappointed in the lack of game the first couple of days I realized the second evening of the hunt when Andrew and Jay took me to the flat top area that there were allot of elk up there. There was elk sign everywhere! Any way from then on I saw game every day and realized that your guides knew what they were doing. Jay was an encouragement and kept me going. Had it not been for him I would not have filled both my tags. He pushed me to go on despite the rugged terrain and could spot a flea on a elks neck at 400 yards. Had it not been for him and his eyes I would have never had such a successful hunt. I had my cross hairs on a nice bull but of course I forgot to load my gun! The spike I killed has been some excellent eating though. I have been making mule deer jerky and cooked a big iron kettle (15 or so gallons) full of deer chili for our entire camp." "Also I forgot to tell Mary how good her cooking was. Greg, Rocky and Andrews were also excellent and I cannot say enough about the trip. I plan to return one day and hunt with yall again. Hope yall have a good Christmas and all is well." Yours Truly, Brian Ragan
Concerning the second hunt "Clayton, I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed the recent hunt out of your camp. The first two days we were there, I was beginning to wonder if there were any elk or deer in the area, but when the snow came, it was a different story. It was not you or your guides fault that I didn't collect one of the biggest elk I have ever seen on Friday morning, it was the fault of the wind (40 to 50 mph) and the blizzard that hit just as we found the herd. I got to blame it on something. I know there were at least three bulls in it, and could've been more, because we couldn't see very well, with all the snow blowing. I will have to give your two new guides up there, Andrew and Jay, my congratulations and thanks. They worked hard for the guys, knew the area well, and did an excellent job for us. I hunted with Andrew one morning on a steep snowy hillside and found that he knew what he was doing, how to do it, and took good care of me along the way. And Jay did the same on the last morning, Friday, when we got into the big herd. But my primary guide, Gregg, was a pleasure to be with the whole week we were there. He is knowledgeable about the country, does an excellent job of looking after an old man like me, and I really appreciated that, and told him so. He is an excellent person as well as a good guide."
