(Rick's Elk 09)

We provides guided fair-chase archery and rifle hunts for elk and deer. We are located just six miles south of White Sulphur Springs, Montana. You will find our family ranch at the base of the beautiful Castle Mountains. We also have property located northeast of town along the North Fork of the Smith River. Between the two ranches there are about 10,000 acres of private ranchland to hunt. So if you're looking for an outdoor adventure, please contact us!

HUNTING WITH US

  • Most of our hunting is done by glassing, spotting, and stalking to within shooting distance.
  • In the evenings we set up where the animals were seen and wait for them to feed to us or we stalk to where they are feeding. The guides who help us are seasoned hunters and realize the importance of a slow, quiet hunt.
  • Although we cannot guarantee everyone will go home with an animal, our goal is for you to see game and have an enjoyable time.
  • All buck deer have to be 4-points on both sides or better to be harvested.
  • All of our hunts are six days of actual hunting with arrival on a Saturday, the hunt begins Sunday morning, and departure on the following Saturday morning.
  • We will provide transportation to and from the Bozeman airport.
  • We will also be providing meals during your stay with us, if you choose to stay in town then you are also on your own for food. You will need to bring your personal effects depending on the time of year you are here.
