Whitetail Deer

Rifle rut hunts are 5 days 6 nights. For all our guided hunts lodging and home cooked meals are provided. Traditional breakfast, sandwiches and snacks for lunch in the field and home cooked meals for dinner. Hunters will stay in a house with their own room, heated camper trailer or hotel depending on location. 2024 season dates are November 16th - December 1st. These are drawing hunts and can be drawn first year applying but usually take 1-2 points to draw. Points can be bought during the fall season for $10 a piece. WWO will help you through the draw process. Rifle hunt success rate is 90-100% on deer ranging from 140”-160” with the occasional 160”+. This is a high success, low effort hunt that is great for hunters that are past their prime or mobility impaired. 2023 season our rifle hunters were 100%

Archery rut hunts are 5 days 6 nights. 2024 season dates are November 4th - December 15th. We have ranches that are archery only. Archery licenses can be purchased at South Dakota Game and Fish office in Fort Pierre. (Closed on weekends and holidays.) Our archery whitetail hunters will be required to stand hunt only. No getting out and walking around or trying to spot and stalk a whitetail. All you will do is spook the deer and make it harder for the next sit or worse push mature deer to the neighbors. As a spot and stalk hunter myself it’s hard for me but it’s the best rule to maximize your opportunity at a trophy whitetail. Your guide will drop you off and pick you up accordingly or sit in the stand with you.
