Good Buffalo meat!!!

[groundhog]

So I took my girls to Montana to hunt deer and after they had taken bucks we stopped at a ranch to ask permission to hunt Whitetail does. The ranch manger said that he would love
to let the kids hunt but that he couldn't because the owner didn't allow any hunting. Come to find out the 34,000 acre Ranch was owned by Ted Turner. Just as we were leaving he says "Ya know I could make you a hell of a deal on some Buffalo meat!" He went on to say that he would let the kids shoot 1,000 to 1,250 pound animals for $750 bucks! We made a couple of calls and my dad and a friend each wanted a half a buffalo for $375 so the kids layed a couple down. It wasn't a "hunt" it was more like shooting a cow but the kids had a great time and the meat is fantastic!! I thought it was a great deal for a bunch of incredible meat!!

Can anyone go over there and shoot one or was that a one time deal?

Heres my other girls Buf

I am not sure if he has anymore that are ready right now but I am pretty sure that he will have some soon. He has 1800 head on the ranch. He may have made the kids a good deal but I will check for you if you are serious.

By the way my youngest daughter only weighs 61 pounds and she shot hers with my 300.Win Mag!!

Wow, now there is a memory!!

[Grizzly95]

I would like to look into it. Does he have a minimum caliber he lets you shoot with?

That would be a trip I would love to take my 12 year old son on next year...Imagine the look on his face!

Thats cool. I have been thinking of doing a MT Buffalo hunt/shoot. I could sell half the meat to family and friends and pay for half the cost.

Great smiles on everyones face.

I think he would let you shoot whatever you were comfortable with. My 300. has a muzzle break and my kids have shot it before so they wanted to use it. He had them shoot the buffalo right behind the ear where the neck meets the skull. That shot doesn't ruin any meat and it really dropped them!!! I will give him a call and see if he will let others shoot for the $750 price. I have a freezer full of meat and I can't believe how good it is! Having Buffalo steaks on the Barbecue tonight! I can't wait
