GALIURO Outfitters

Who we are

Local knowledge. A personal welcome.

Ray Delgado has guided Coues hunters out of the same country since 2004 and has never operated anywhere else. Everything below follows from that.

The outfit

Twenty-one seasons. One range.

Galiuro Outfitters is one man, three guides he has hunted with for a decade, and about four hundred square miles of southeastern Arizona that we know better than we know anywhere else.

Ray Delgado started guiding Coues hunters out of his truck in 2004, on the same ridges his grandfather ran cattle on. He has never operated anywhere else, and he has never taken more than six mule deer hunters in a season. Both of those are on purpose.

We do not lease country in three states. We do not sell hunts we have not scouted. From September on, somebody from this outfit is on these mountains every week — running cameras, sitting glassing points at first light, and keeping a notebook on which bucks made it through the summer. By the time you land in Tucson, we already know where we are going the first morning and what the second and third options are if the wind is wrong.

What that buys you is honesty. If it has been a dry year and the deer are not there, we will say so in July and give you your deposit back rather than sell you a hard week.

The crew

Four people. That is the whole outfit.

    OutfitterSince 2004

    Third generation on the San Pedro. Ray has been on these mountains since he was old enough to carry his own water, and he has guided every season since 2004.

    Wes Kingman

    Head guide · CouesSince 2011

    Wes spends September through February behind a tripod and the rest of the year shoeing horses. He is the reason our hunters get on bucks in the first two days rather than the last two.

    Found eleven of the fourteen bucks we killed last season.

    Guide · Desert unitsSince 2016

    Marisol grew up in Ajo and knows the bajada country in 37B the way most people know their neighbourhood. She runs our desert mule deer camp.

    Wildlife biology degree, University of Arizona. Reads sign like a page.

    Tom Beckett

    Guide · ArcherySince 2018

    Tom shoots a bow better than anyone here and has the patience for the kind of stalk that takes four hours and ends at thirty-eight yards.

    Runs our September archery hunts and the December rut bow hunts.

In their words

  • “I had hunted Coues twice before with other outfits and never fired a shot. Wes found my buck at 2,100 yards on the third morning and we spent six hours getting to 340. That is the whole hunt in one sentence.”

    D. MarchettiPennsylvania · Coues whitetail, 2025

  • “Ray called me in August and told me the country was dry and he would rather move my hunt a year than take my money. Nobody does that. I moved the hunt and killed the best mule deer of my life the next January.”

    K. WhitfieldTexas · Desert mule deer, 2024

  • “The glass they put in front of you is better than the glass I own, and they actually teach you how to use it. I hunt differently at home now.”

Camp

After Dark

You are buying nine or ten hours a day in the field and about six hours in camp. We take the second number seriously.

The ranch house

Our Coues hunters stay in a 1930s adobe ranch house at the mouth of Aravaipa Canyon. Private room each, a real bed, laundry, hot water at four in the morning, and Starlink if you have to answer something. Dinner is at a long table and it is the best part of the day.

Desert camp

The mule deer hunt runs out of a wall-tent camp on the bajada, because the country is four hours from anywhere and we would rather spend that time glassing. Heated tents, cots, real bedding, hot showers, and a cook who has been with us since 2013.
