Our 20,000 acre main lease in central Montana is home to abundant wildlife year round.  Habitat  ranges from timbered plateaus and mountain foothills to prairie pastures, creek bottoms, river bottom, hayfields, and several thousand acres of grain fields.  We are also permitted to outfit for specialized hunts on several large public lands areas in southwest Montana.  This combination of operating area is the best for getting into plentiful and varied game!  The excessive predation by wolves in western Montana has not occurred in our part of the state.

All hunts are guided, and fair chase.  Guide ratio is two hunters per guide, or a single hunter per guide.  We welcome young hunters with their parents.  Most hunts involve travel by vehicle, and hunting on foot.  Terrain is such that we can accommodate hunters with limited mobility.  Horses are used in unique locations.  All hunts include a fully equipped camp with heated sleeping quarters.  Main camp features a comfortable lodge located on the ranch.  Lodging and home cooked meals are provided.  Caping of trophies and preparation of meat for processing is included as part of your guided hunt.  Bring your weapon, a sleeping bag, and hunting clothes; we’ll take care of the rest.  Click on the links at left for more details on specific hunts.

Through the Musselshell Hunt Club, we offer a non-guided hunting opportunity, learn more.
I'm blessed to make a living doing what I like best, and sharing it with other people. I've been guiding in southwest and central Montana for over thirty years, a licensed outfitter since 1971.  Outfitting is my full-time occupation. I'm working with and observing nature in one activity or another every month of the year. Ours is a family business, with my wife, our daughters, and myself working together with our hardworking and congenial crew, to show you the trip of a lifetime, in some of the prettiest country in North America! - Monte Schnur
