Being immersed in the backcountry, saddled up on your trusty horse, and getting an opportunity to hunt some of Wyoming’s top trophies. This experience will be one you’ll reminisce about for years to come. We are confident that you will be pleased with our level of experience, quality of animals, service, and hospitality.
Our hunt area out of Star Valley, Wyoming, is abundant with elk, mule deer and moose. There is a small bighorn sheep herd that call our hunt area home, providing an opportunity for a tag holder to capitalize on their slam. Our area is also known to hold a fair amount of Shiras Moose, allowing the once-in-a-lifetime tag holder an opportunity to punch their tag. Our elk herds are vast, producing a high percentage of harvest opportunity on a nice 5 or 6 point average bull. It’s not unheard of to locate a few better than average bulls each season. Our mule deer are typically of trophy quality. Our camp has harvested a number of 185”-200”+ bucks over the past several seasons, as featured on Extreme Outer Limits TV.
As far as tags, nonresidents must apply for each species by a certain deadline. Wyoming is an all draw-based state, which means that there is an allocation of tags given each year. Most of the species, such as antelope, elk, and mule deer, are on a 75/25 system, which means 75% of that tag pool is going to go to residents, and 25% is going to go to nonresidents. For the once in a lifetime species, such as moose and sheep, the allocation is 90/10.
We are happy to help you through the application process because it can be complicated and intimidating.
Our hunting season starts in mid-September and goes towards the end of October. The camp has modern-day amenities, and you can bring whatever you can fit in your pickup truck. But once you reach camp, you’ll be hunting on horseback as the area is roadless.
The elk bugles echo, flowing through the mountains like the life’s blood of the Rockies. Mule deer & elk flock to the meadows, and the hunt is on.
