Eastern Montana Deer and Antelope Hunting in the Badlands

Montana deer hunting offers an incredible experience for hunters looking to combine rugged adventure with a touch of comfort. In the badlands of Eastern Montana, our hunters have access to a vast expanse of both private and public land, with great mule deer, whitetail and pronghorn antelope hunting. This area provides a unique backdrop with expansive canyons, rolling plains, and rugged hillsides – prime deer country that allows hunters to experience true backcountry hunting.

Guided hunts here offer flexibility to suit all experience levels. For those eager to cover ground, guides often lead hikes into canyons and remote areas with low hunting pressure, maximizing the chance to spot trophy bucks in untouched landscapes. Alternatively, hunters can glass large stretches of land from strategically chosen vantage points, reached by 4×4 vehicles. These vehicles not only add convenience but make it possible to explore more ground without the need for extreme physical exertion.

For those considering a Montana hunt, the mix of remote landscapes, skilled guiding, and comfortable lodging creates an experience that captures the best of big game hunting in the West.

Deer Applications are due by April 1st.

We still have spots available! These hunts tend to book up a year in advance. If you are interested in a hunt with us please inquire today to get started on your hunt of a lifetime.

Lodging and Accommodations

After a day in the field, hunters return to a comfortable “elk-style” camp. This base camp provides an inviting atmosphere with all the amenities needed to relax, recharge, and share stories of the day’s hunt. Mornings begin early as hunters set out into the vast Montana terrain, ready to make new memories and perhaps bag the mule deer they’ve been dreaming of.

Three meals a day prepared by our amazing chef Kyle Baumgartner, as well as refreshments.
