The $8,000 listings are usually a two-animal trip
Idaho's nonresident deer tag runs about $352, on top of whatever you pay the outfitter — budget for both. And if you see a whitetail hunt near the top of this range, check what it actually includes: several of the priciest packages here are elk/deer combo hunts, one trip that lets you take both animals, not a pricier deer-only hunt. A straight deer hunt in Idaho tops out well under that.

Great experience deer and elk hunting. Staff was amazing…
Shattuck Creek Outfitters were great! Guides were fantastic, food was awesome, and the accommodations very comfortable. This was my first Whitetail hunt and Amon paired me with his son Eshton who was a FANTASTIC guide and teacher…
