NEW IN 2007! Niobrara Wilderness Outfitters is excited to offer Buffalo Hunts to out list of adventures. This is not shooting fish in a barrel. Our buffalo are free range on a 12,000 acre pasture. Let us take care of everything for you. This is a 3 day hunt with lodging and meals included. Heck, we will even haul your buffalo from the site to our local locker. From there you decide what you want to do with the entire animal. We prefer that you use a muzzle loader or a rifle for this hunt. Prices may vary on each individual hunt, so please give us a call for a price.

Hunting will be done in a variety methods ranging from sitting, spotting, stalking, working ridges and valleys depending on the game we are hunting, the weather, feeding habits, feed availability location and hunter participation. We have had young and old, first time and veteran hunters, varying in skills and age, as well as disabled hunters.

Transportation while hunting will be mostly on foot as our lodge and camp are located in prime hunting areas. Vehicles will be used only to transport from one area to another. No road hunting permitted! It may be possible to use horses depending on guide and experience as well as game movements. If you wish to bring your own horses, we will be willing to make arrangements.

After game has been tagged, we will pack it out with whatever methods are needed. We may use horses, mules, foot power, ATV or 4-wheel drive pickup all depending on the conditions and location of the kill. We will assist you in animal care. Although, after the game has been retrieved to the camp or lodge the meat care, quality and cost are entirely up to you.

DEER HUNTING:
We have taken a number of very nice deer from our place. The big ones are not always easy to come by and they have learned to be very elusive. This makes for a great and challenging hunt. Both whitetail deer and mule tail deer can be hunted in equal ratios. In most cases you can find whitetail and mule deer in the same areas.

TURKEY HUNTING:
We normally run 75- 100% success spring and fall. We usually take on 12- 15 hunters for both the spring and fall seasons with no more than six hunters in camp at one time. On our ranch, we have 175- 200 birds that winter with our cattle. These are wild birds that spread out over our entire range in spring and then congregate in the fall. The average bird has a 6- 10 inch beard and weighs around 18 pounds. Birds have been taken that weigh 26 pounds and have 11 inch beards.

As guides we can only put you where we feel and/or have seen the animals move. They may not go where they went the day or week before. Hunter skills also come into play as there are things we cannot control. We will do our best to help you have a memorable, and most of all successful trip.
