[QUOTE="Coorcan, post: 1467422, member: 104211"] It depends on the outfitter. I guide for one guy on lions and get paid for the full 5 days even if the tag is filled the first hour. Same outfitter is by the day on deer and elk though. Something to remember is even if you tag out the first day that guide most likely did a lot of work before you arrived in finding the animal and knowing where he was going to be on your opening morning. I have gotten the shaft on tips on first day tagouts and I do see the hunters side of it but honestly feel jipped because it was partly due to luck but usually a bigger part due to me being good at my job and putting in work for your hunt before you get there to ensure you go home with your trophy. to me it makes more sense to tip better if the guide does a better job and gets you on the animal sooner than later but often the hunter doesn't see I worked hard enough on quick kills to justify a better tip.
