Your Experience

Base Price is per person for a 3-Day All Inclusive Mature Cow Hunt. Make it a Meat or Trophy Bull hunt for an additional fee.

The Buffalo

More aptly known as “Bison” opportunities are available on our private ranch located in Western South Dakota from late August until January. As North America’s largest mammal, Buffalo can weigh up to 2,000 pounds but are still extremely agile with the ability to run up to 35 miles per hour for intermediate distances.

Adventure is calling.

The trophy-class ranges from the freezer full of meat and incredible hide provided by a mature Cow to the combination of meat and horns offered by a world-class Bull Buffalo. Being in the home range, we are able to offer a wide selection of authentic hunts that can be catered to your ideal trophy Buffalo experience. Roaming the area where the prairie meets the hills, this open country provides vast expanses where spot and stalk tactics can be employed with either rifle or archery. This habitat makes recovery efficient via truck and trailer so your Buffalo can be processed at the lodge without wasting valuable meat.

Limited opportunities are available each year based on our management practices, but fortunately, there are no draw or over-the-counter tags required for our Buffalo so there is no excuse for you to miss out on this hunt of a lifetime.

What to expect

Our South Dakota-based bison hunting packages are typically set up as all-inclusive 3-day guided experiences which include two nights of lodging and meals as well as trophy preparation and storage during your stay. Group hunt durations vary based on the number of hunters and are catered to keep everyone having a blast throughout the trip. Rifle rental, butchering services, taxidermy, and meat/trophy transportation are available at reasonable rates to ensure you get the most out of your adventure. Don't forget, all coyotes encountered during the hunt for your big game animals are fair game at no additional charge if you possess a South Dakota Predator/Varmint hunting license.
