This was a hunt I had dreamed about since I first started hunting as a kid. The hunt and the overall experience was top notch! Even though I didn’t harvest an elk I had the best hunt of my life and learned a lot about the elk through many up close encounters. I will be booking another trip as soon as possible. Brian and his family have a great set up and I highly recommend the experience to anyone.

This year was the third time I have hunted with Brian and Top Notch Outfitters, as always another quality experience. Brian, Christian, and Kelly all work hard to make sure the hunter has a great time in New Mexico. Some highlights from this years hunt,( Brain rattled in a nice bull from 400 yds to 20 yds- I will never forget the lead cow that walked to within 8 feet of us, so close you could hear her chew!, Got to full draw on the good 6pt that was bringing up the rear, but of course he stopped with vitals behind a bush) Thanks for a great hunt Brian!!

I want to take this opportunity to thank you and your family for the tremendous hospitality shown to me during my first-ever archery elk hunt. I can’t say enough about your entire operation before, during and after the hunt. The accommodations at camp were first rate, and the food was as good as it gets. My guide, Kelly Johnson, worked his tail off to put me in the middle of elk all week, and made my first-ever archery elk hunt a wonderful experience. It was everything I had expected and then some. I am already looking forward to my next archery elk hunt with Topnotch Outfitters.

If you want a real hunting experience, call Brian Newell at Topnotch Outfitters. I would recommend Topnotch Outfitters to anyone without hesitation or reservation. I can be reached by email at keylor363@comcast.net

My hunt with Top Notch was off the charts, elk bugling everywhere, multiple encounters. My guide very professional, positive, and worked very hard to get me into elk and bring them into bow range. I was able to kill my first elk with my bow and I could not be happier.

I wanted to have a memorable hunting trip with my 17 year old son. I was referred to Top Notch Outfitters and they delivered. Our guide worked hard to help both of us fill our tags and we had a lot of fun doing it! We had a hunting experience that we will both remember for our lifetime and I hope to get back for another hunt in the near future.

Brian Newell and his family go out of their way to maximize everyone’s experience and success with their outstanding guides, accommodations and game. The Capitan area in NM is a very special area to hunt elk and the terrain and animal population is incredible. Top Notch Outfitters certainly lives up to its name and I can’t wait to return again.

I hunted the Elk gun season with Top Notch Outfitters in October 2015. The trip was excellent and met all my expectations. On the third morning of my five day hunt I shot a real nice bull that I am very proud of. I believe I saw about 150 Elk in my three days in the woods. We hunted area 34 and stayed at The Camp of the Tall Pines in Mayhill. The cabin was very nice and the folks running the camp were very concerned that I was comfortable and had everything I needed. This was a great trip.

What a great trip I was able to line up with Brian for my Dad and myself! He worked extremely hard to provide a quality hunt from sun up to sun down. His knowledge of the area and experience made the hunt a time I will never forget…….it was a turn-key operation that has me planning a return trip!

I must say this about top notch outfitters, they have some very good guides, and as an outfitter Brian is one of the best. His accommodations are second to none, his wife is a top notch cook and quite a conversationalist she’s awesome as is Brian. He’s out there to get you the type of animal that you are looking for, but he is honest as the day is long so what he tells you you can depend on it. Long story short he\’s one of the best an his prices are not bad either, it’s worth every penny

Thank you for a fantastic hunt. Clayton did an awesome job…by far the best guide we’ve ever had. Even though we both shot bulls, this was also the best hunt we’ve ever had….and would have said the same thing if we didn’t harvest anything. Multiple encounters of mature elk. You definitely run a great camp.
