I have participated in several swap hunts. Results have varied from great to miserable. It's important to ask very exact questions, such as:
Do you have any serious chronic illnesses?
Do you know the difference between a backpack and a daypack?
Are you committed to be in good cardio/pulmonary condition before coming to hunt in Colorado?
Can we count on you to do your part of the work and camp chores, pay your part of the cost?
Can we count on you keeping your word?
What are your goals in coming to hunt in Colorado?
I met two of my best hunting buddies on the Internet. One was a swap hunt, sixteen years ago. We still keep in touch and I just visited him again to take my grand-son on a Texas high-fence ram hunt. The other was for an Alaska hunt setup entirely among strangers. It was a great hunt and one of the guys is my best hunting buddy. I've hunted with him many times and will go on another Arizona Coues deer hunt in November .

Very Important indeed. To do otherwise should be a dis-qualifier.

If anyone from Alaska offers to do a swap a hunt. Don't do it.. It's against state law.
Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

I thought you only needed a guide for bears and sheep as a non-native. You could swap on a Moose or Caribou hunt, or hunt for fishing.

I know the 270 WCF is totally gay, but are the WBY and WSM just as gay?

The problem is not the need for a guide, but rather the concept of trading services that should be considered commercial guiding. If you take money or other considerations to take someone hunting you are considered in the business...

I'm pretty sure that if I invite a guy from back east out here to go on an elk hunt with me, and he lets me hunt whitetails on his place back there, neither one of us is "in the business."

Appears it doesn't happen much -it'd be my luck someone would show up w/a 270 to shoot hawgs & ruin the entire hunt .

But first, I have a bunch of questions I need to ask: It's important to ask very exact questions, such as:
Do you have any serious chronic illnesses?
Do you know the difference between a backpack and a daypack?
Are you committed to be in good cardio/pulmonary condition before coming to hunt in Colorado?
Can we count on you to do your part of the work and camp chores, pay your part of the cost?

I have tried to get Ready to swap me a Dall sheep hunt in the Talkeetnas for a guided pack string squirrel hunt in Northern Indiana. So far, he hasn't bitten.

FC Are you sure that Carl could cope with the rigors of squirrel hunting in the remote north of Indiana? I'd hate to hear that you had to carry his carcass out on your back... John
