...I have also been known to ask what is the "deal price" on an animal?" Surprising how deal prices can be reduced or negotiated on the spot !!
I had a man tell me once that there always two prices- the "asking price" and the "taking price". He told me the truth. It is also true that "hard cash" can also capture good deals !
Depends on the outfitter though. In wild areas outside of RSA most of the quota is already sold. On my last hunt while looking for Kudu we came across a lot of buffalo. I couldn't shoot another one as only one was left on quota in the area and was reserved for @375Fox along with roan etc..
