UPDATE JANUARY 2012: ***Private Land Hunts are our Speciality!: We hunt elk on several large private ranches in the San Luis Valley. These are spot and stalk hunts in relatively open country on the farms in the valley. Licenses are guaranteed and available through the landowner voucher system and these hunts are guided only with varying prices. Please call for now to book 2012 as hunts can start as early as mid-summer when the bulls are still in velvet and run through the end of the year. *** We also hunt from two guided camps in our traditional high country basin areas. These camps offer us the best opportunity of getting hunters on great bulls high on the mountain, and if the elk are low we can always drop down too. Guided hunts are on a 2X1 basis and we run small camps, usually with only four hunters per camp. Single hunters are welcome as we will match hunters as necessary. Our cabin is available for self guided hunting and we will continue to offer several drive-to (4WD necessary) drop camps. *** Texas Hog Hunting: Be sure to visit our Hunt n' Shoot web site by clicking on the Red Hog. We have great hunts for pigs in the Piney Woods of East Texas, about a two hour drive north of Houston. Come on down and shoot some hogs!

Hello, this is Brian and Brent and we hope you enjoy our web site. Complete information on all hunts, including prices, lots of pictures and references can be found by using the links provided below. Our mule deer, antelope and elk hunts are in the northern end of the San Luis Valley and the adjacent mountain ranges. We are located approximately one hour north of Alamosa and 2 and 1/2 hours southwest of Colorado Springs. We operate on private land property and the Rio Grande National Forest under the USFS Sauguache Ranger District. We are an equal opportunity employer and service provider operating under license #1714.

Hunting here is fantastic due to the variety of habitat available to our big game populations. We are fortunate to have well-watered grass in the San Luis Valley all surrounded by some of the most beautiful high country and mountains in all of Colorado. The elk population in the mountains surrounding the San Luis Valley is great, and thanks to the limited buck deer tags our mule deer are getting a chance to grow some real good antlers. Antelope hunting around here has always been good and you will see plenty of quality bucks during your hunt with us. Local ranches grow plenty of alfalfa which helps keep our game animals well fed.

Our guided camps are limited to 4 hunters which allows us to provide excellent service and helps give everyone the best possible chance at seeing and harvesting game. We also provide self-guided, drive to (4WD) drop camp hunting from comfortable fully outfitted tent camps, and I have available a beautiful log cabin for for those who want the extra comfort of a kitchen, hot showers, flush toilets and comfortable beds. From the cabin we provide self guided hunts and we'll also use the cabin during the late rifle seasons as a base camp.

As an avid hunters ourselves, we have had the privilege of hunting this valley and the surrounding mountains for many years. Our knowledge of the land and its game, and our many years of Colorado hunting will help you have a great hunt. Almost everyone sees animals and many will get a shot opportunity. Not everyone harvests game, but that's why it's called hunting. Complete information on all our hunts and outfitting services can be found by clicking on the links below. After viewing the information, please feel free to call or write so we can answer any questions you may have.

We are a small, family run business with many repeat clients who come hunt with us year after year. With those folks we have become good friends. Please call soon and try a hunt with us and we are confident you too will be returning to the wonderful San Luis Valley. We look forward to welcoming you to Colorado!

Sincerely,
