What a Guided Hunt
Costs in Nebraska

Each price was read from an outfitter's own website and stored with the sentence it was quoted in. Whole-hunt prices only — day rates and multi-gun party packages are excluded, because they answer a different question. Species with fewer than 4 outfitters publishing a price are left out rather than shown on a sample too small to mean anything (Antelope, Elk, Mule Deer, Upland Bird in Nebraska).
Nebraska nonresident tag costs
| Species | Nonresident tag |
|---|---|
| Whitetail Deer | $369 |
| Mule Deer | $369 |
| Antelope | $257 |
Checked against the Nebraska wildlife agency's published nonresident fee schedule. Species whose fee we have not yet audited are left out rather than estimated. The tag is paid to the state and is not part of the outfitter prices above.
