Most of this market sits at the high end
The bulk of what's on file clusters near the top of the table below — the cheapest listing is the exception here, not a typical starting point. If you're budgeting for this hunt, plan around the upper end of the range and treat anything cheaper as a good find, not the going rate.
What didn't make this count, and why
A couple of raw listings that turned up under this search were a Colorado-based outfitter's own out-of-state hunt — an Ohio or Mexico trip sold by a business headquartered here — and a few generic "big game club" memberships that cover four to sixteen species with no whitetail deer specifically named. Neither belongs in a number about what a whitetail hunt costs, so both are left out.
The state fee is separate, and much smaller
Colorado's own basic hunting license runs about $75 to $115 for a resident or $625 to $650 for a nonresident — real money, but a different payment than what you owe the outfitter, and nowhere near the size of the numbers above.

The proof is in the pudding, as they say. My combo elk / whitetail hunt couldn't have gone any better, as far as I could tell…
