WHAT TO EXPECT
HUNTING:
OUR HUNTS ARE CONDUCTED ON PRIVATE RANCHES THROUGHOUT THE EASTERN PLAINS OF COLORADO. WE LEASE AND HAVE PERMISSION TO HUNT HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF ACRES in many different units. ON A TYPICAL DAY AT SANDY HILLS ONE OF OUR GUIDES WILL PICK YOU UP BEFORE DAYLIGHT AND PROCEED TO AREAS WHERE WE HAVE BEEN CONSISTENTLY SEEING ANTELOPE THAT MEET SHHC REQUIREMENTS. AT DAYLIGHT WE WILL BEGIN GLASSING OVER SUCH AREAS AS PASTURE LAND, TALL GRASS CRP FIELDS, AND/OR ROUGH CANYON COUNTRY. IT IS OUR GOAL TO FIND THE BIGGEST BUCK POSSIBLE AND MAKE THE BEST PLAN TO BE SUCCESSFUL. AT SANDY HILLS WE STRIVE TO HARVEST MATURE ANTELOPE IN THE 75" RANGE AND UP, WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF REACHING 82 INCHES OR MORE. CLIENTS CAN EXPECT TO SIT OVER A WATER HOLE/STOCK TANK OR SPOT AND STALK. BEING PHYSICALLY FIT TO WALK, CRAWL, KNEEL, AND SIT FOR MODERATE PERIODS IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING PREVENTING YOU FROM ACCOMPLISHING ONE OR MORE OF THESE TASKS, GIVE US A CALL AND WE CAN DISCUSS YOUR OPTIONS. ADDITIONALLY, OUR CLIENTS ARE ALWAYS CURIOUS OF WHAT THEY CAN EXPECT FOR SHOT RANGES. IT'S DIFFICULT TO PREDICT AN UNKNOWN SITUATION, BUT WE PREFER TO MAINTAIN 20-60 YARD SHOTS WITH A BOW, UP TO 100 YARDS WITH A MUZZLELOADER, AND OUT TO 500 WITH RIFLES. WE CAN DISCUSS LONGER SHOT SITUATIONS IF YOU'RE COMFORTABLE, BUT TYPICALLY IT'S NOT NECESSARY.
our SERVICES:
hunts include a 1:1 or 2:1 hunter to guide ratio depending on how you book. we will transport you for the duration of your hunt, provide you with professional hunt photos, cape your trophy, and make recommendations on game processors and taxidermists. guides will have snacks and water, but meals and lodging are not included in the hunt price.
LICENSE process:
Colorado uses a preference point system for drawing licenses in limited units. Each unit and season require a different number of preference points to draw a license. An applicant can apply for one preference point each year per species. additionally, we also have access to landowner vouchers each year for muzzleloader and rifle mule deer and whitetail deer, which allows you to hunt in years you do not draw. these vouchers are limited and must be discussed prior to your hunt. Rifle mule deer tags currently take 1 to 3 points to draw, muzzleloader take 1-2 points. archery licenses can be purchased over-the-counter.
