2-Day Doe Meat Hunt

Shot Opportunity
Shot opportunity has been 100% for many years on these Montana deer hunts. Rifle hunters should sight rifles dead on at 200 yards, most shots range from 50 to 300 yards. Archers should practice from 10 to 60 yards, depending on your ability and equipment.
Trophy Quality
Hunters usually bag big bodied mature mule deer bucks with 18" to 26" wide antlers. This is not a record class hunt, but mule deer taken on these ranches sport impressive antlers with good mass, height, great overall appearance, and occasional cheater points.
Hunting Areas
To insure quality hunting, we lease thousands of acres of private ranch hunting land in Eastern Montana.
Hunting Methods
Hunting methods often include spot & stalk hunting, glassing and spotting open hillsides and brush pockets, or sitting and watching water holes and feeding areas. These ranch lands have good vehicle access so hunters of any physical condition can have a great hunt.
Deer Season
Montana is one of few places that has a rifle rut hunt for Mule Deer. The hunting season generally starts in late October and ends on the Sunday after Thanksgiving. There is always a couple weeks overlap of Deer and Antelope seasons, so combo hunts are available in late October and early November. Archery hunting season opens in September through mid October 19. There are excellent locations for stands and blinds waiting for you.
Best Time
The first two weeks of season are popular with Deer and Antelope combo hunters. Trophy hunters and those who want to experience a rut hunt usually hold out for the rut during mid November.
Accomodations
Motel Town Hunts: Motels are a short drive from most hunt areas and close to restaurants and shopping. Hunters pay for their choice of room and meals. Guides pick up and return hunters to their room each day. Budget $50-$100 per day for meals and room.
Base Price is for 2 Day Doe Hunt.
