Introduction
Many hunters are
beginning to realize that eastern Colorado
holds some of the largest whitetail and mule
deer bucks in the country. This is because
the vast majority of the land is private,
rifle licenses are very limited, the winters
are mild, and there is an abundance of crops
for growing huge racks. And our outfitter
leases several of the best ranches the area
has to offer. He has exclusive outfitting
rights to approximately 65,000 acres of private ranch
land which includes over 25 miles of
creek bottom inhabited by both muleys and
whitetails. All of our outfitter's leases
are hand-picked and provide the habitat to
produce trophy class bucks. These ranches
are spread over several game management
units and offer a diverse selection of
habitats for our clients. His leases are
managed for both trophy class animals and a
quality hunting experience.
One of our prime whitetail properties is located along the famed Arkansas River in southeast Colorado. We have exclusive outfitting rights to about 35,000 acres of private land which includes approximately 6 miles of river bottom for prime bowhunting.
Trophy Quality
Without exaggerating, eastern Colorado
rivals any place in North America for trophy
mule deer and whitetails. Hunters come from
all over the country to hunt eastern
Colorado. Trophy quality is just
unbelievable! Mature whitetail bucks generally
range from an incredible 130 to 180 inches gross,
with a 150 inch gross average over the last 20 years. Several bucks grossing over 180 have been taken.

Hunting Method
Hunting is generally by treestand hunting along the creek bottoms during the rut which can be a very productive hunting method for the big bucks.

License
Availability
All deer licenses in Colorado are issued
by a lottery drawing and the application
deadline is usually at the beginning of
April. But we have many hunts that only
require 0-1 preference points and the
outfitter takes care of all application
procedures. But if you don't draw a license
or happen to book your hunt after the
application deadline, our outfitter can
generally get you transferrable landowner permit for
free! Most outfitters charge their clients between
$500 and $1000 for a landowner permit but our outfitter doesn't charge anything extra. The
outfitter leases property in several different
game management units in eastern Colorado
and can assist you in applying for the
correct group of units. Archery licenses
are generally valid for a group of game management
units.
With the exception of whitetail only licenses, your license will be
valid for either a whitetail or mule deer.
This is important because on our hunts, you
never know whether a trophy whitetail buck
or mule deer buck might stroll by. All of
our leases have both whitetails and mule
deer but some units are better for mule deer and some better for whitetails.
Hunting Dates
Archery deer season in eastern Colorado
is very generous and goes from October 1
to December 31, excluding the short
rifle season(s). However, for big whitetails we recommend hunting during the rut or pre rut in November. However, the early season towards the beginning of October can also be good as the bucks are still in bachelor groups and more predictable than the rut.
All archery deer hunts begin at noon the
first day and end at noon the last day.
Food and Lodging
Food and lodging are extra but our
outfitter can assist you in locating an
inexpensive, yet comfortable place to stay close to the hunting area.
Archery Hunt Duration and Price - $2,750 for 7 days (Self Guided)
These hunts are self guided. However, the outfitter will meet you at the property prior to your first hunt and show you around the property and make hunting recommendations. Many treestands have already been placed at the best spots or you can add your own. A pop-up ground blind wouldn't hurt either. As these hunts are treestand hunts and the outfitter has been guiding hunts on the properties for over 20 years, going self guided is really not a detriment and our hunters have been extremely successful.
The outfitter only takes a very limited number of hunters on each property.
Food and lodging extra.
Rifle Hunts
Our outfitter takes a very limited number of rifle hunters. As eastern Colorado's rifle seasons are in late Oct. and early Dec. and the archery hunts are conducted in early Oct. and Nov. during the rut and our outfitter takes such a low number of hunters, it really doesn't negatively affect archery hunting.
Rifle Hunt Price
Early Season (opens in late Oct.) - 5 days 2x1 for $5000
Late Season (opens Dec.1) - 5 days 2x1 for $5500
Food and lodging extra.
A 50% nonrefundable deposit is required to book the hunt.
Northern Wyoming Trophy Whitetail Deer Hunts

Wyoming is a sleeper state when it comes to big whitetails. Most hunters across the country don't realize the incredible trophy whitetail hunting offered in the State. And this hunt is on some of the best whitetail properties we have ever seen. Mature bucks generally range from 130-180 inches and the whitetail population is extremely high.
I hunted there in September 2009 with two clients and we were seeing up to 100 whitetail deer per day coming to a crop field and a large proportion of those were bucks! And that was during September. The whitetail hunting is nothing short of incredible!
Hunting Area
Our outfitter is a second generation outfitter operating in the local area for the last 20 plus years. He leases or owns approximately 20,000 acres of exclusive, prime whitetail habitat including over 6 miles of river bottom perfect for treestand hunting monster whitetails. The hunt takes place in north central Wyoming near the town of Sheridan in the beautiful foothills of the Big Horn Mountains.
Trophy Quality and Population
This hunt is for some of the largest whitetail bucks in the West. Mature bucks generally range from a whopping 130 to 180 inches with the average buck taken being about 150 inches! The whitetail population and buck to doe ratio are also extremely high. During the rut, you can expect to see bucks traveling all day long.
Hunt Duration and Cost
$4500 which includes the cost of a nonresident deer tag.
The hunt is 4 days and includes motel and lunches. Breakfasts and dinners are not included.
The hunt will take place during the peak of the rut in November.
Licenses
Whitetail licenses are easy to draw and leftover licenses have been available after the draw for the last several years.
A 50% nonrefundable deposit is required to book the hunt.

Southeastern Saskatchewan Trophy Whitetail Deer Hunting (Indian Res.)
A 173 gross whitetail
This trophy whitetail hunt occurs on an Indian Reservation in southeast Saskatchewan. Saskatchewan has a reputation for monster bucks and this area is no exception. In fact, the bucks are probably larger in this area than anywhere in SK due to the remoteness of the area and hunting the Indian Reservation. Only native Indians and their clients are allowed to hunt. If you are after a monster whiteail, this is the place to hunt.
Hunting Area
Our outfitter hunts approximately 28,000-acres of the
White Bear Indian Reservation which borders the Moose
Mountain Provincial Park (approximately 96,000-acres)
where no hunting is allowed by nonresidents. Hunting by non-residents is not permitted in the
provincial park but the flow of big game in and out
of the park and onto Reservation land is constant. Thousands and thousands of acres of agricultural land surrounds our hunting territory.
All big game hunts take place on First Nation land
and are strictly free chase.
About our Outfitter
Our outfitter is a small and
personalized hunting outfitter. He offers a limited amount of big
game hunts per year on various Saskatchewan Indian
Reservations, which are all located in the southern
portion of the province.
He has over 20 years of
hunting experience and and has been guiding for 6 years. He is a full time guide, trapper, and logger. He
firmly believes in the proper use of all wildlife and
the land. This knowledge and experience has proven
invaluable in terms of providing an excellent guide
service to his clients.
Listed below are some
of the qualities and expectations upon which our outfitter has
built his reputation:
• High success rate – over 70% of his clients are
repeat customers.
• Small and personalized operation – less than 20
clients per year.
• Friendly, knowledgeable and experienced guides.
• Excellent meals and accommodations.
• Low client to guide ratio.
Trophy Quality
Trophy quality is incredible with bucks generally ranging from 140 to 190.
Hunting Method
All hunts are 100% free chase (no high fences). The
hunts also take place during the annual rut. All
hunting is done on foot in wilderness areas actively
pursuing game and/or hunting out of tree stands and
ground blinds. I should also note that hunting
pressure by tribal members is considered to be very low.
Our outfitter limits the number of hunters to eight or less per week.
If you are hunting the November rut then you need to
be prepared to sit long hours on stand in cold
weather. The number of bucks that you can expect to
see varies greatly, from a few per week to a dozen each day, and it also depends on a few uncontrollable factors such as the timing of the rut, the
temperature, and the deer density.
In certain areas, bait such as oats may be used to
hold and concentrate the does. We can accommodate
those who do not wish to hunt over bait. However,
the hunter should be prepared to see a lot less deer.
Accomodations
Hunters are lodged in comfy, spacious 2 bedroom
cabins located in a beautiful resort setting. The
cabins offer a spectacular view of the lake and are
conveniently located just 1/2 mile north of White
Bear in the beautiful Moose Mountain Provincial Park.
They are furnished with a kitchenette,
table and chairs, futon, and satellite TV. Laundry
facilities are also available. This set-up provides
the ideal setting for hunters who are seeking an
enjoyable, comfortable hunt, without necessarily"roughing it".
Travel
Your adventure will begin with airport pick-up in
Regina, Saskatchewan. Typically, clients will arrive in camp a day or two before their scheduled hunt. My guides and/or myself will be there to greet you.
Hunt Price and Duration - 7 days for $4000 (includes license)
The hunts include airport pickup, food and lodging, and your license.
Hunters have the option of
purchasing additional hunting days at a price of
$200.00 per day. There is an airliner charge of
approx. $150 to change your flight – this is not
included in the added price.
A $1500 nonrefundable deposit is required to book the hunt.

I can also vouch for the excellent
quality deer hunting in eastern Colorado as I have bowhunted
there for the last 20 years and harvested half a dozen Pope
& Young whitetails over the years .
