I cannot speak for tophet, but what I was getting at is this.

I don't expect anybody to do what you detailed for $100.00 per day, guides or PH's are pros just like other people in other trades and deserve to be properly rewarded for their labours.

So if they need $300.00 a day or whatever to make a decent living then so be it, that is the rate and I will decide if I do or don't want to pay/cannot afford that.

I for one however do not like being told that a hunt is going to cost X and then at the end somebody thinks I am a bastard because I dont hand over 2 times X.

I don't take my car for a service, agree a price and then hand over twice the agreed when I pick it up, so why should hunting be any different.

I think it is BS to go hunting and then be told that unless I tip well then the camp employees will not get any pay.
