Eastern Montana WHITETAIL Hunting

This Montana whitetail hunting outfitter 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. Over the years our clients have enjoyed a 95% success rate on mature bucks. The goal on this hunt is an opportunity at a 140-150 inch buck.

Northwest Montana WHITETAIL Hunting Lodge

Since 1992 this outfitter has been offering some of the finest deer hunting in Montana.  This northwest corner of Montana is not typical “Big Sky Country.” The Yaak Valley is much more like the Pacific northwest and is heavily timbered, lush, and green. They like to hunt hard on foot and we like to hunt the old fashioned way. These Montana whitetail hunts have had a nearly perfect opportunity rate for 120″plus B&C whitetails.

There are no feeders or high fences here, just wilderness with lots of game and very few people or pressure. With over 100 square miles on our Kootenai National Forest concession, they are the only outfitter in the area.  They are a small operator and only run three guides per week (maximum of 6 hunters).

This is a unique Montana whitetail hunt in the mountains for big timber bucks.

You’ll be hunting big deer in big timber in some of the most spectacular and remote country in the United States. This area of Montana is remote and hunting pressure is minimal. Without exaggerating, you generally don’t see another hunter in the woods.

Northwestern Montana has a strong population of whitetails, and big bucks are plentiful.

Other parts of the state have experienced population crashes due to disease or winter kill, but Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks biologists have told us that this herd continues to grow. Whenever possible this outfitter likes to concentrate on mature bucks that are at least 4 years old.

  • This Montana hunting lodge is extremely affordable.
  • Opportunity Rate: Nearly 100% opportunity for 120 plus B&C whitetails.
  • Trophy Quality: During the rifle season (last week of October through November) we concentrate on trophy whitetails in the 140″ plus B&C range.
  • Rifle Hunts: The last week of October through end of November (five weeks)
  • Archery Hunts: The last week of September and first week of October with only two hunters per hunt.  Success during the archery season is good and bugling and cow calling is very effective. Archery elk hunts are offered as 7 night/6 day, 2×1 or upgrade to 1×1.
  • Combo Hunts: Hunts can all be deer/elk combination if desired.  We’d like every bull elk to be 330″ B&C or better we run on the “any legal bull is a good bull” philosophy. Additionally, black bear tags and wolf tags can be added.
  • Difficulty: This northwest corner of Montana is heavily timbered and mountainous.  Being in good shape is a huge plus. Guests will hunt hard here and we hunt with boots on the ground all day.

Montana Whitetail Hunting Combos

These are trophy Montana deer hunts during the rut in southeast Montana on private ranches in prime deer country. Typically this hunt hits the peak of the rut and the bucks will be moving all day. Montana uses a preference point system for licensing. The Big Game combo tag may be used for this hunt, but having preference points makes it easier to acquire a license.

Options range from a 2-state, 2-buck deer hunt in both Wyoming and Montana, to a 1-state deer.

Lodging is provided on all hunts with all the comforts of home. Breakfast and dinner are cooked and served at the lodge. Lunches are packed and taken along daily to the field. You will not go hungry! No matter where you are hunting, can rest assured that ranches are carefully managed for trophy quality and success. If you hunt during November during the rut, you can hunt either a whitetail OR mule deer. There are good numbers of both species.

You can also combo your deer hunt with a pronghorn!

The pronghorn antelope and pronghorn/deer combo hunts are conducted in both Wyoming and Montana. In Wyoming they hunt the north east corner near the town of Colony, and in Montana, they hunt the 700 region in the south-east corner around the town of Alzada. These hunts are physically easy with large numbers of game seen, and success rates running between 95 and 100% on antelope bucks averaging over 14 inches.

  • This is a draw hunt, but hunters will most likely draw. You can actually put in for Montana, and if you don’t draw you still have time for Wyoming.
  • Mule deer OR whitetail hunts are 3, 4 or 6 day hunts and can be combined in a number of ways.
  • You can also choose to combo your deer hunt with a pronghorn antelope.
  • Hunt Southeast Montana.
  • Economical Hunt.
  • Lots of game (both species of deer and antelope).
  • High success rates.
  • Clean, comfortable lodging.

My hunt was absolutely top notch.

The outfitter is a fantastic man and incredibly hard working and knowledgeable, there is no doubt he will do everything within his power to make peoples hunts successful and enjoyable. I plan to do it again with him next year for sure.

Wade Zuver

Our hunt was excellent.

We saw bucks every day along with all other sorts of wildlife. Mountain goats, bears, and foxes were common sights. Fishing and crabbing was special bonus. The food was excellent, the crew was amazing. Outdoors International did a great job of finding exactly what we were looking for.

Jesse Neveau

What an amazing experience!

The hunting lodge was out of this world!, Rooms, food and the scenery were all A+. Our guide was exceptional and had us on Shiras moose all five days. We saw over 30 total with at least 10 bulls. They had a plan for everything including taxidermy and game processing.
