What does 1x1, 2x1, 4x1 Mean?
Outfitters describe the amount of service they will render to a client in a numerical
multiplication equation. Example: You book a 5-day hunt with 2x1 guide
service. Each day is broken down into 2 "Prime" times, morning and evening.
A 5-day hunt has 10 "Prime" times, and a 2x1 client (50% service) would
be guided (1x1), a minimum of 5 "Prime" times. The other times he would
hunt an area learned the day before, or set out on stand by the guide.
Sometimes, especially with bow hunters, two hunters will hunt together and the
guide would be with them all of the time. Of course the 1x1 (100% service)
hunt (which costs the most) would put a guide at your service for the entire
hunt. A 4x1 hunt would give you 1x1 guide service 25% of the time..
