This HFA Endorsed Outfitter boasts one of the most exclusive hunting destinations on the market. Offering elite guided trophy hunts for Elk, Mule Deer, Whitetail, Pronghorn, Merriam Turkey, Shiras Moose, Bighorn Sheep, Trophy Bull Estate Bison, Cow Bison Meat Hunts, and Wolf Hunts. They offer Five Star accommodations at the ranch. Uniquely located up the Wood River, their 2,000 acres of private land with exclusive hunting rights on an additional 30,000 acres in some of the area’s best private land bordering the 2.5 million acre Shoshone National Forest just outside of Meeteetse. This makes us a natural hotspot for Mountain Wildlife like none other. This allows them to hunt where the Elk are, no matter the weather. They take a limited number of hunters each year to ensure minimal pressure and maximum trophy quality. You are guaranteed to see staggering numbers of wildlife of all species, and experience the finest in western hospitality.
With exclusive hunting rights on a 30,000 acre neighboring ranch, this gives them the opportunity to provide an annual Trophy Bull Harvest as well as a Cow Meat Harvest. This ranch is a multi-generational family-owned-run operation and has been raising bison for 25 years. The Bison are free to roam the pastures on the 30,000-acre ranch and feed on the rich high mountain grasses. These bison are raised for meat production and are free from antibiotics and hormones. Each year they will offer a very limited number of Trophy Bull hunts and a number of cow meat hunts. The old bulls will be scored in July prior to the hunt in Jan and most will score in SCIs top 5. Bull and Cow harvest begins in Jan and runs until mid Feb to ensure the best hide quality.
Arriving at the ranch we will check you in to one of the suites where you can enjoy the views and all this exclusive ranch has to offer while dinner is prepared. The Ranch Lodge offers the finest in Western Hospitality and the dinner service at the Lodge is a special treat. Following your nights rest we start the “Harvest Day” with introductions to the guides and a ranch breakfast, then head down to meet the ranch hands at the buffalo ranch. You will have the opportunity to pick your bison and harvest it using your own weapon or one can be provided. If you would like assistance, they can harvest the bison for you. Harvesting an estate bison is bit of a chore so they utilize heavy machinery to aid in the process of breaking down the meat into quarters. They encourage all participants to jump in with a “Sharp” knife as many hands make quick work. They take every step to ensure these Bison are harvested in a calm environment and processed for the best flavor quality. While this is not hunting a bison, they feel it is a special opportunity to harvest one of these magnificent animals.
The Bison experience doesn’t end with 400lbs of arguably some of the leanest, most flavorful meat on earth. They can arrange to have your meat taken to a local butcher or help you to get it ready for the trip home. They also have arrangements with a local Tannery to turn your hide into a wall or rug decoration and can arrange your skull for a Euro mount.
