IMO it really depends on the individual performance of the folks that are truly taking care of you. I've been on hunts where a fella one day takes great care of you and does everything in his power to make sure you have every opportunity to harvest game and the next day have a guy that was lucky to find the key to the truck. I reward service above and beyond and penalize service below an bizarre as well info the outfitter of either extreme. 10% seems fair for normal service that I expect for the money I've paid and what they've promised for the pay. ie If I've paid top dollar for a hunt the help is going to have to be pretty outstanding to get over the 10%. On the other hand if I paid bargain basement and the help was exceptional I can be more generous and not bat an eye.

Good luck with the hunt
