Nevada hunting quality is widely recognized as "Best in The West"! We are licensed state wide for all big game species. Mule deer, elk, antelope, and big horn sheep are found throughout the state and particularly in the Elko area. In addition, we have private land holdings, cabins, and private land access agreements with a number of locations available for both guided and unguided (do it yourself DIY) adventures using our private lands and cabins as a base. Depending on your tag drawn, your wishes, your experience level, we can set up a customized hunt to suit you!
Big game hunting in Nevada is all on a draw basis and a preference point system. It is a complex system and we assist you in this application process to help you be successful in the draw. Your chances of drawing increases each year you apply and bonus points are becoming important in draw success. Applications are due in March for the guided hunts and April for the general season.
We offer rifle, muzzle loader, and archery hunts for all levels of experience. We know the area of your hunt and get you onto that big trophy. Hunts typically are 5-7 days. With our high success rates of harvesting solid trophy elk, deer, mountain goat, bighorn sheep, antelope, and mountain lion, you can be assured of having a first class and fair chase hunt.
Many areas are accessible only by horseback or foot due to wilderness designations or private land ownership patterns. We can help you have access to remote country where deer numbers are high, older age-class bucks are abundant, and hunter numbers are low............the key to success!
The season will remain early in nature and end in early November rather than going further into November rut. There are some brand new late season rut hunts for a limited number of tags in certain areas for rifle, muzzle loader and archery and there are new elk hunts and antelope hunts available now. Elk and antelope numbers continue to expand with 330-360 point bulls being taken by our guided clients.
General season application deadline for archery, muzzle loader, and rifle is in April. Be sure to apply before the deadline. Make your fall hunt plans early so we can send you the proper applications.
Special landowner Elk and deer tags will again be available through us and other co-operating landowners.
As in past years your big game hunt does not end with your kill. To fill up your week other hunts available include waterfowl, sage grouse, wild chukar and with the use of our private shooting preserve lands other birds available to hunt include pheasant, quail, chukar, and turkey. And don't forget the great bass and trout fishing at the Reservoir right in our back yard!
What is provided: All of our guided trips include any necessary equipment, (i.e. horses, saddles, tack, boats, life vests, bait) lodging at our main ranch or one of our cabins or other facility, an abundance of deliciously prepared home cooked meals, and good ol' down-home hospitality. We've got extra rods if you need one.
Our unguided cabin rentals are stocked with towels, bedding, fully equipped kitchen, fire wood and wood stoves for heating.
What to bring: Depending on the adventure that you will be undertaking, bring proper clothing, boots, jacket, and personal belongings, medicine, toiletries, etc, that you might need. For those that are hunting, bring your favorite gun and ammunition, favorite fishing pole and lures or flies, if you are fishing. Don't forget the bug repellant and sun screen! If you don't have it, we can provide it!
What to expect from the weather: Altitudes are high and the weather can change from beautiful warm sunshine to bitter windy and cold overnight. Be sure and bring plenty of warm clothing including gloves and hats.
Other items you will need: Applicable license & tags.
