There’s something special about the stories shared around a campfire - moments of reflection, celebration, and connection that stay with you long after the hunt is over.
This is where those memories live on. On our Fireside Chats page, you’ll find firsthand experiences from hunters who have walked the ridges, glassed the valleys, and made unforgettable memories with our Montana hunting guide team.
Whether it’s a first bull, a return trip, or a once-in-a-lifetime experience, these testimonials come straight from the heart of camp. If you're wondering what it’s like to hunt with a trusted Montana hunting guide, these words say it best.
“My First Bull Elk - Unbelievable”
“I’d dreamed of an elk hunt like this for years, and it exceeded every expectation. The guide worked with me for months leading up to the season, helped me scout digitally, and made sure I felt confident heading into camp. Day two, we glassed a herd moving down a ridge—and with their help, I made a clean shot on a 6x6 bull. The support, hospitality, and respect they have for the land makes them a top-tier Montana hunting guide outfit. I’ll be back next season!”

“A Bear Hunt I’ll Never Forget”
“Spotting a black bear in the Montana backcountry is one thing—but getting within bow range with a skilled guide at your side is something else entirely. These folks are the real deal. Every step of the hunt was ethical, respectful of the land, and laser-focused on safety. I ended up tagging a beautiful chocolate-phase bear and came home with more than just a trophy—this hunt changed how I think about the wilderness.”

“Float Trip Fun for the Whole Family”
“I wasn’t sure what to expect with kids in tow, but our float trip was perfect. The raft was super comfortable, the guides were kind and easygoing, and the views were unreal. We stopped for a dip in the water, played games on shore, and wrapped up with a delicious lunch. It was the highlight of our Montana vacation and the kids still talk about it. Highly recommend this crew!”

“The Best Fishing Day of My Life”
“I’ve fished all over the country, but nothing compares to floating the Big Hole River with this crew. From the moment we hit the water, I knew I was in good hands. My guide knew every bend and eddy like the back of his hand—and by mid-morning, we were landing fish left and right. Lunch riverside was the cherry on top. Truly a bucket list day with an outstanding Montana hunting guide team (who clearly know the rivers just as well as the woods).”
