White-Tailed Deer 2:1 2026

4 day hunts are Weds to Sat. 8 day hunts are Weds to Sat X 2 with time off from Sun to Tues (11 days total) Every hunt is built around experience, strategy & an intimate knowledge of the incredible landscape surrounding the Red Deer River. Our area is a mix of river-bottom cottonwood forest, rolling ranchland, farmland, deep coulees & rugged badlands, perfect habitat for both mule deer & whitetail. ​We start every day before first light. You & your guide will head out to glass the ranchland, farmland edges, & coulees from either the truck or a high vantage point. This lets us locate bucks as they feed or move back to bedding. This is classic mule deer hunting & the excitement builds the moment we lock eyes on a buck worth chasing. Mule deer thrive in the rolling terrain and coulees of our area. Our approach is: • Morning Glassing • Strategic Spot-and-Stalk ​• Midday Bedding Moves Mule deer hunts are active and exciting — lots of glassing, planning, & making moves. Whitetails stay tight to the river and the heavy cover around the cottonwoods. Our methods shift a bit: ​• Still-Hunting & Glassing We can glass river edges, funnel areas, & brushy pockets. • Ground Blind Hunting On those really cold days, or when deer are moving less, we set up comfortable ground blinds tucked into the cottonwood forest. A heater keeps you warm so you can stay still & focused. You’ll be surprised how many mature bucks cruise the bottoms during the rut. • Midday River-bottom Walks If conditions allow, we may still-hunt quietly through thick cover looking for deer slipping between bedding zones. ​What You Can Expect from Your Guide Constant communication & a clear plan Smart, ethical hunting decisions A pace that matches your comfort and ability Honest assessments of shot opportunities Full support with field care & trophy handling
