Musselshell Outfitters - Montana Hunting on private land
"With Musselshell Outfitters I was into elk six out of eight days. We sighted at least twelve bulls. Only one was a spike. The rest were 300 inch class on up to a monster bull in the 350-400 inch class."

How We Operate
Our hunting guests are called to breakfast well before daylight each morning of the hunt. After breakfast each hunter is asked to make a lunch from items placed on the counter. This way each guest can make as many or as few sandwiches as they wish and can put exactly what they want on each sandwich. Some items placed on the counter each day include fresh bread, turkey, ham, cheese, peanut butter, jelly, mayonnaise, mustard, apples, oranges, chips, granola bars, cookies and Antelope Huntingother items. After lunch is packed and you are ready to leave, you will meet your guide at the 4x4 rig. You will then go with your guide to the area assigned by your outfitter. Your guide will spend the day with you in pursuit of the desired game. Your guide will keep you in the field all day unless you request to go back to camp early.

Methods of hunting depend on whether you are hunting with a bow or rifle and the game you are looking for. Hunting methods will also change with the weather and the time of year you are here. For your best chance of success, do exactly what your guide tells you to do. All of our guides are licensed by the state and know what they are doing. We train all our guides to fit our operation. All guides spend considerable time scouting game in the pre-season and all know the country. We never put incompetent people in the field and call them guides. You will find your guide easy-going, but serious about the hunt. If we think that you are doing something, or failing to do something, that may be hurting your chances of success, we will tell you. It is then up to you to decide whether to take action or not. As professional hunters we do not allow ANY alcohol to be consumed during the day unless you choose not to hunt that particular day. Drinking an alcohol at noon means that you are finished hunting for the day. Drinking alcohol responsibly after the day's hunt is permitted.

All of our hunting packages include an evening meal the day before the hunt starts and also includes a continental breakfast the morning after the hunt is finished. Therefore, the arrival date is the day before the hunt starts. The departure date is the day after the hunt is over. For example: our five-day Mule deer hunt includes five full days of hunting rather than three days of hunting with arrival and departure days counted as the other two days.


The Hunting Camp

At our camp you sleep in a comfortable cabin with a twin bed and full size mattress on one of our ranches. Our camp has running water, hot showers and indoor flush toilets. Electricity is available in the cabin with wall outlets. Meals are served in a large wall tent...you will not go hungry while hunting with us and coffee is always on in case you arrive back in camp early. The camp can be accessed by a 4x4. Smoking is not permitted in the cabins or tents, but there are smoking areas at the entrance of each building. This allows hunters to stay scent-free if they wish and allow smokers and non-smokers to get along well in this camp. This is not a camp where the outfitter is absent for most or the entire hunt - your outfitter is always in camp or in the field guiding. The outfitter has to be there to make it happen....count on it at this camp!
