I have been a full time, licensed hunting guide in Arizona for 25+ years. Arizona Unit 1 is my backyard. I’ve hunted this unit all my life and know it extremely well. This unit is home to some big elk and I’d like to guide you on your hunt. I personally guided a successful hunt for a 463 7/8″ mature non-typical bull elk from this very unit (See first image in my gallery). I personally hunt only archery, however I guide archery, muzzleloader, and rifle. I’m very proud to have achieved 100% opportunity for my clients.

My main goal for every client is to do whatever takes to be successful. Unit 1 is not a physicall demanding unit, however I prefer working with hunters that are in excellent physical shape. Patience on a hunt is very important. If you are looking for a big bull, shooting the first bull you see is not the answer. Patience, time, and perserverance always pay off for me. First and foremost I’m an archer, so if we hunt together I expect my hunters to be proficient with their bow out to 80 yards. If you are proficient at 80 then you are deadly at 50 yards when the adrenaline starts pumping. In the end, I work hard and do whatever it takes to help put my hunters in the best position to achieve a dream hunt.  We’ll work hard and it will be 100% worth the effort.

“I hunted with Lee Hamblin in 2011 in Arizona on a archery September elk hunt. His knowledge and experience of the area was second to none I harvested a 350″ bull due to his hard work ethics that he put into the hunt. I had 12 years applying in Arizona The unit experienced One of Arizona’s biggest wildfire’s that closed half of the unit and he still pulled it off. He’s a excellent guide I would highly recommend him”

“I’ve been fortunate to have been raised by a father who was passionate about hunting. We have traveled from Mexico to Africa hunting with some of the best guides. My three experiences with Lee Hamblin have shown that he is a world class hunting guide. Patient with the critical moments like shots, an uncanny knowledge of the habitat and animal behavior. I am always surprised by his animal-like way of thinking and predicting their behavior. I would highly recommend hunting with Lee to any hunter from child beginner to the most seasoned aficionado. There is always something that can be learned from an outdoor experience with Lee and always great laughs.”

“Lee’s knowledge of the land and the animals that inhabit it is second to none. He is a student of wildlife and their habits and I have no doubt about his ability to get clients in position to be successful. I would never second guess his intuition and will always follow his lead as a hunting guide and as a good human.”

“Lee is the ultimate apex predator.  I have been lucky enough to be on 5 hunts with Lee. Some of the best experiences of my life. Only twice was I the hunter.  One of the hunts, he wasn’t even the actual “guide” but just along as a friend. Yet he was the one who jumped out with me and walked me through harvesting the best buck of my life. I have seen him work with hunters of varying skill levels and manage to get them all opportunities at amazing quality animals. He is a tireless worker and will do whatever it takes to ensure for a great hunt.  He can and will hunt ANYTHING effectively. He is a family man with great values instilled in him by his father.  He and his family have become lifelong friends. He is the person you want to call if you are lucky enough to have a quality tag. He knows and believes in what he is doing.  He is a guide you can trust.  I will always look forward to the chance to hunt and learn from Lee.”
