Description

This outfitter manages over 50,000 acres of private land, home to some of the best mule deer in Southwest Colorado. Their leases span across GMU 70, 71, 711, 72, and 73, where the mule deer population is thriving, with sightings of up to 100 deer per day being common. Their hunts are tailored to suit a variety of hunting styles, from driving and glassing agricultural fields in search of your trophy buck to hunting through sagebrush draws and cedar/pinion canyons. This outfitter offers archery, muzzleloader, and rifle hunts. All hunts require draw tags, but if you aren't successful in the draw, they can secure landowner vouchers to ensure you still get the opportunity to hunt. This is 2:1 fully guided 4-day hunt. Option to upgrade to a 1:1 hunt for an additional fee. Option for non-hunter/observer for additional charge. This is a draw area. Vouchers available if not drawn.
