Whitetail Hunting Seasons
Archery Season is open from Sept 1 to
late Dec, Bearpaw Outfitters prefer the first week of September for the best success.
Rifle seasons is open in Oct and Nov, but Bearpaw Outfitters only hunt the November
late season when bucks begin to rut and success is highest.
Shot Opportunity
& Trophy Potential
This is a high success hunt, shot opportunity
is normally 90% or higher on the guided private land hunts. We only take a limited number
of hunters each season to insure high success rates. This isn't a trophy hunt, most bucks
taken are three years or younger but we have taken some big bucks. It's your choice to pass
or shoot the bucks that you see. Larger bucks are taken more often on the mountain hunts but
success is lower on mountain hunts. The best success is on the guided private land hunts.
Whitetail Hunting Methods
On the private ranches we hunt in blinds
watching food plots, bait sites (bait is legal), alfalfa fields, orchards, game trails,
and waterholes. We hunt in the least impactful manner possible, we do not allow hunters
to hike at all on the properties, we want the properties to be a sanctuary where deer
feel safe because there are no hunters hiking around spooking them. As a result we have
have a lot more deer on the properties. Your guide will pick you up and drop you off at
your blind, the blinds are big enough you can stand up and stretch. After we began hunting
this way our success increased greatly. We also offer mountain hunts on public land, the
mountain hunts are more agressive, we hike old logging roads, clear cuts, ridges, and some
times we may watch bait sites or water holes. The mountain hunts are best for hunters who
prefer hiking and covering ground rather than sitting and watching.
Physical Condition
Physical condition is not that important
when hunting in blinds on the private lands or if hunting the easier areas in the mountains.
Hunters in better physical condition can hike into the more remote areas in the mountains.
Temperature & Weather
Check the
Weather Channel before leaving for your hunt.
September usually has 60-90 degree days with the possibility of frosty
nights. October days are usually 30-60 degrees with 25-35 degree nights.
November days are usually 20-50 degrees with 10-35 degree nights and
rain or snow is more likely.
Hunt & Guiding Options
Guided Hunt:
Includes a guide with 4x4 vehicle, lodging, meals, field dressing, retrieval, and
skinning. This is the most popular hunt but this hunt is not a guaranteed hunt.
Guaranteed Hunt:
If you've had bad luck deer hunting this may be the hunt for you. This is just
like the guided hunt except if you don't get a shot opportunity you can return
for another hunt at half price.
Unguided Hunt:
Includes lodging, meals, directions where to hunt, a DIY Hunting Map, and use
of the game cleaning area. Bring your 4x4 vehicle to access the hunt areas.
DIY Hunting Map:
Wayponts for at least 4 proven hunting areas will be sent to you to download
onto onx maps on your phone. This gets you into good hunting country and saves
you hundreds $$$ in fuel and time wasted searching for where to hunt. No other
services are included with the DIY Map.

Meals are served in the lodge dining area,
there are five cabins, each cabin sleeps 2 to 4 people, and there's a lighted game
