Early in the season we hunt
mule deer in their summer range. As the deer migrate down, we'll hunt
our lower ranches. Our success on trophy mules is exceptional, with several
bucks over 25" taken every year. We conduct drives, walk, and set points
where the game will cross. Success ratios over 90% are common.

Archery deer
This hunt takes place in the mule deer's summer range, at altitudes from
7,000 to 11,500 feet. We hunt from tree stands as well as spot and stalk,
depending upon the weather conditions.
Muzzleloader deer
This is much like our archery hunts, with one major exception: a muzzleloader
can shoot a lot farther than a bow. This is an ideal for those who don't
like to hunt with a bow but enjoy being in the woods at this delightful
time of year. Muzzleloader permits are by draw only, with the application
deadline in early April.
Rifle deer
Depending upon the season and weather conditions, we will hunt from the
deer's high summer ranges down to our lower ranches. Typically, Colorado
Trophies produces over 90% success, with several mule deer in the
25" to 30" range taken by our hunters.
Colorado D.O.W. point restrictions and limited drawings over the past
several years have helped our elk herd grow to over 230,000 animals.
With our hunting units consistently producing among the top in the
state, your chances of bagging a representative elk are very good. Each
year our hunters take several 6 x 6 bulls, some in the 300 range. Our
success ratio normally exceeds 70%. We tailor hunts specifically to the
needs of the archer, muzzleloader, or rifle hunter.

Archery elk
To bugle in a wild-eyed bull within shooting distance is one of the world's
greatest hunting thrills. We hunt from tree stands over water holes and
on game trails, and bugle them during the rut. It helps to be in good
shape for this hunt. We have had great success with our archers, typically
achieving 90% opportunity and 50% + kill rates.

Muzzleloader elk
This is much like our archery hunts, with one major exception: a muzzleloader
can shoot a lot farther than a bow. This is an ideal for those who don't
like to hunt with a bow but enjoy being in the woods at this delightful
time of year. Muzzleloader permits are by draw only, with the application
deadline in early April.
There's nothing like bugling an aggressive bull during
the rut. Our guides are quite skilled in coaxing big bulls within range.
We employ one guide for every two guests...
Rifle elk
Colorado's elk herds continue to grow by leaps and bounds, and the units
we hunt are among the top producers in the state. Typically our hunters
achieve over 70% success, taking several 6x6 bulls. Obviously, your chances
of taking a representative bull are extremely good.

Bear
Bear hunting is by spot and stalk, and we see quite a few big bears every
year. You can hunt bear in conjunction with a deer or elk hunt for an
additional $750 trophy fee. A bear hunt alone is $4,750; contact us for
details.
