Trespass Fee's For Mule Deer

[carpsniperg2]

I would take the under 30" option and find a dandy and whack him for 1500.00. That's not to bad of a price. A lot of great deer can be taken under 30"!!!

That's a huge amount of area to have almost to yourself- 131 square miles.   

$1500 seems like a fair price to me.

The under 30" is what I'm thinking about doing. If a true hog happens to walk past then I can always upgrade.

I would say if you could get it less then 3000 your doing good. My buddy has an outfit out of hindsdale mt. There guided mule deer hunts are 6700 and they are booked three years out. A lot of the landowners charge 3000 dollars just for the deer . Then the guide fees. Also these hunts you pay for food and lodging on top of the 6700. So it's 3000 for the deer and 3700 for the guides. All the land they have leased up all over the state the average is 3000 per deer to the landowner. But your chance of shooting a 180 plus is as close to a guarantee as you can get.

I wouldnt pay more than 1500. You have to do everything yourself and ive seen quite a few "wow factor" bucks on block management in SE Montana. I went to college in eastern MT. There is a lot of opportunity over there if youre willing to do some research and burn some leather.

In down in Utah at the hunt expo. I checked into the trespass hunts. No food or lodging just trespass is 2500 and an additional 1000 if you kill.  But any buck is fair game on most trespass hunts.

If you have the money just take a donkeydeer horse, find the biggest deer u can. For what your putting into it.

I have a ranch in Wyoming I can hunt and my boys have hunted and he charges $2500, he owns not leases 100k acres that his cattle run on and he doesn't want you shooting anything under 170" and he lets you shoot 4 doe Antelope at no charge.

Headed to the hunt expo myself. Who has trespass hunts?

[Bean Counter]

If its an unguided hunt, how does a hunter know which bucks he can shoot as far as the 30" rule go?

[Skyvalhunter]

Sounds like a fish story I tell from time to time

I have a chance to hunt Montana for mule deer this fall and was wondering if the fee's are fair? This is a non guided hunt and we have access to 84,000 acres. He has multiple bucks that will go over 30". He only allows two bucks over 30"and four bucks under 30" harvested each year. What is a reasonable trespass fee for a ranch this size and bucks of this caliber? Over 30"? Under 30"?  Thank you in advance.

Something to think about.  84,000 acres and on a total of 6 bucks allowed?   Something sounds wrong to me.

Milk river outfitters. I have hunted one of there trespass spots. We passed a mid 160 buck . We hunted it at the end of season. They only allow 5 hunters a year. I can get you there booth number here in a few when I walk over there. The other montana booth next to them does them to for same price. All good hunts. Talk to Jared at milk river.

[blindluck]

how much should a guy pay for this type of buck? Guided or trespass fee.

[ML_Hunter]

Sounds like a fair deal to me. $1500, unguided, not many other hunters around, sounds like you've hunted there before so you know the lay of the land and have a good chance of taking a deer or two, and your spending quality time with your son  . I don't see anything wrong with that. For 2500 however, I would be asking for a guide. But like you said, if a nice one crosses your cross hairs, you can always upgrade!
