Trophy Mule Deer Hunts

TROPHY MULE DEER HUNTING

Our wilderness mule deer hunts offer an excellent chance at a 26”trophy buck scoring in the 170 class or better. We scout the high-country bucks and know where to find the big boys. Those lucky hunters who draw a Maroon Bells/Snowmass Wilderness tag for Unit 43 should give us a call. Another terrific hunt is a wilderness muzzleloader hunt for mule deer.  Our wilderness hunts are challenging, physical hunts in a gorgeous setting. We suggest our high-country hunts for hard-core hunters who are in good physical condition and want to hunt hard for an outstanding trophy mule deer. Keep in mind that all deer tags are obtained by draw only. With that said, we have access to land owner vouchers which you can buy. These vouchers allow you to buy a tag with no preference points and no waiting for years.

Spot and Stalk Black Bear Hunt

SPECIAL HUNT – September Rifle Bear Hunt – This is a challenging hunt, but we do have a lot of bear in our area.

Bears are very elusive and can be hard to find during daylight hours, so we spend plenty of time in the summer scouting to find their hangouts. Do not expect to see multiple bears each day. Expect one good opportunity during your hunt, and make it count!
