Craig Ranches
​
This Colorado deer hunt is in the Craig, Colorado area. The hunting property is broken up into 3 separate ranches for a total of 7000 acres. Each ranch is in close proximity to one another and the lodge is basecamp for all 3 ranches. The advantage of this configuration is if the deer are in the higher country, they have that covered, and if the deer are in lower elevations, they are there as well. The terrain varies but all the country is accessible by vehicle as well. Max capacity at the lodges is 5-8, there are two separate lodges. So whether you are in great shape or no shape at all we can get you on critters.
​
The hunting area consists of grassy meadows, sagebrush, aspens, and oak brush. Perfect country for spot and stalk opportunities and the terrain is not technically challenging. Long-range shooting from 200 to 1000 yards is very doable. You will be at 6500 – 8500 feet in elevation. The tags are a draw but backed up by landowner permits.
The average success rate on rifle deer is around 95%. Tags are guaranteed but not included in price.
The average deer is a 4 x 4 scoring in the 160s to 170s with 180 inch potential. This is a high success and opportunity hunt with a lot of deer on the property. They provide good lodging, hearty meals, and hard-working folk to help you get your deer. Hunters should be prepared for potential long-range shooting as this is big open country.
​
Durango Ranches
​
This property in the south west part of the state consist of about 600 acres of ag and hay fields. This is an low physical hunt and consist of primarily watching the hay fields waiting for the elk to hit them. This property is surrounded by tribal land which creates a safe haven for deer. The area tends to produce bigger deer due to lack of hunting pressure around the ranch. This is also a great hunt for lower physical capabilities.​
​​
All hunts are 5 day hunts. Deer hunts are a draw but landowner vouchers are available for purchase.
