EASTERN PLAINS DEER AND ANTELOPE

The plains of eastern Colorado have a reputation for trophy-sized mule deer and whitetail. Western Sky Outfitters has obtained some exclusive leases on private ranches in eastern Colorado. We hunt 25,000 acres of private ground in Colorado Game Management Units 105, 106, and 99. These hunts are for trophy mule deer and whitetail, and spots are limited, so they fill up fast. The hunting consists of some stalking and walking, as well as glassing, so although it is not as physical as our horseback hunts in the mountains, it is best to increase your chances of having a successful hunt by exercising and practicing shooting before you arrive. We will stay in a nearby hotel and drive out to the ranches each day. The closest airports are Colorado Springs (COS) or Denver International (DIA). The hunter is responsible for their lodging and food expenses, purchasing the tag, as well as meat processing and shipping. This is a draw hunt; the deadline for the application is April 1st. Whitetail and early mule deer require no points, and late mule deer typically take 3 points. If you are unsuccessful in the draw, we can put you in touch with landowners who have landowner tags that you can purchase directly from them.
