HUNT DETAILS:
A mule deer hunt here is a unique and exclusive experience, taking place on one of only two estate mule deer operations in the United States. The terrain spans 1700 acres of prime hunting grounds, with a variety of rolling grasslands, dense woodlands, and winding river bottom, offering the perfect setting for pursuing these majestic animals.

The mule deer are bred and raised on-site, ensuring a healthy, sustainable population that offers hunters an extraordinary chance to harvest a trophy deer. The hunt begins the evening guests arrive, diving straight into the action. Whether you prefer archery, rifle, crossbow, or muzzleloader, you’ll employ a mix of ground blinds and spot-and-stalk tactics to track and pursue these magnificent animals.

Mule deer bucks on this estate often range from 160 to 240+ inches, providing a rare and thrilling challenge for hunters seeking an exceptional trophy. Every harvest is handled with care, with expert butchers and taxidermists on standby to ensure nothing goes to waste.

On the morning of day four, guests depart with a hard-earned trophy, premium meat, and the memory of a truly exclusive Western mule deer hunt.
