Description

This outfitter offers an exceptional 5-night, 4-day guided hunt package for trophy Mule Deer and Whitetails on a limited basis. Because this outfit is the conservators of the bucks on lands we manage and endeavor to provide each hunter an opportunity to harvest a true trophy buck. They carefully balance the number of hunts they book each year with the quality of bucks available. They presently manage over 100,000 acres of privately owned land in central and western South Dakota. Only trophy deer are harvested. These deer are 100% wild and not fenced. This is a TRUE hunt! This outfit believes that every hunter wants to have a shot at a trophy deer and they work hard to provide that opportunity to every hunter they guide. This is a fully guided 4 day hunt.
