TESTIMONIALS

“I hunted with Montana Whitetails in 2013... without a doubt the best week of whitetail hunting of my life!! I went there for a week in early November when the rut was just kicking in. I saw more mature bucks, in that week than I have in the past 10 years of hunting in my home state of Virginia. The place is truly incredible.. and I was lucky enough to fill my tag on a beautiful 10 pt. the 3rd morning after passing up some other 120+ class bucks. I'm hoping I can return this year and if not, definitely the next.”
– Matthew Neely, VA

“Just got back from a trip of a lifetime with the Miller brothers! Montana Whitetails is the place to go! I have been to numerous outfitters and this one by far was the most accommodating, most fun, and provided me with the trophy Montana elk and whitetail I dreamed of! I couldn't thank you enough for everything you did and you can be sure we will be out again!”
– Brian Hester, VA

“I had one of the best hunts of my life with Montana Whitetails. I highly recommend it to my friends and any one who will listen. Thanks for a very professional hunt! Sincerely.”
– Ron Parker, Spring Creek, Nevada

“If you are looking for a Western river bottom hunt, Montana Whitetails Inc. is the place and Keith Miller, owner operator is the guy. Located on the Shields River near Wilsall Montana. My seven day bow hunt was easily the best hunting week of my 30 year hunting career. I literally saw hundreds of whitetail deer and had many good shot opportunities at quality bucks. I also saw, Elk, Moose, Black Bears, Mule deer & Antelope. Keith’s knowledge of the deer and other game movement in his area is meticulous, his pursuit to put you in the right spot for success is non-stop. Keith has over 170 tree stands covering 8 miles of river bottom!

The accommodations are very comfortable and has everything you need, along with excellent and plentiful home cooked meals. If you have any questions, Please feel free to contact me.”

“Montana Whitetails is the only place I’ve ever gone and hunted and had a desire to return to every year. These guys are great to be around, they are outstanding guides, and their sense of humor is unmatched by any other outfitter I’ve seen. I can honestly say that Keith and Rob are probably the best 2 hunters I’ve run across. When you hunt at Montana whitetails, you’re guide is not just a guide that is simply there to shuffle hunters in and out and turn a profit. These guys are every bit as serious, ethical, and dedicated hunters as you are. They are also every bit as determined to give you opportunities at game as you are to get those opportunities.

I still had a few days left after harvesting my Antelope buck, so I asked about calling coyotes. I can’t say as though I’ve ever been covered up in bugling elk when I was out calling coyotes before….it was awesome…there were 40 of them out there and at least 6 were bulls. It was the first time I’d ever seen elk in the wild, and was more than happy to let the coyotes live as a trade off for watching all these elk. It was truly an amazing sight!

After spending a little time trout fishing, and helping some guys recover game, I learned that I could purchase a whitetail doe tag over the counter. I killed my doe pretty early in the evening, and then just hung my bow up and watched. I am used to deer hunting in Indiana and assumed that doe was likely all that would pass by…maybe one or two more at the most. I was wrong. I had 17 different does walk under my stand that evening, and saw every bit of 100 deer in the field behind me. In fact, I saw more whitetail deer that week than I’ve ever seen in my life….they are everywhere out there.

They do an outstanding job of getting everyone several opportunities at game, they make you feel right at home, and they put forth more effort than I’ve ever seen when it comes to making sure people are where they need to be. This was definitely a hunt that I’ll remember fondly for the rest of my life, and honestly, even if I were to come home empty handed it would still have been the best hunting experiences (possibly overall experiences) of my life.”
– Aaron Kitzman - Indiana

“I've been to Montana Whitetails 3 times so far and plan to hunt there again this year. The hospitality is great and Keith is a real professional when it comes to putting hunters in the right place to get a shot at a trophy whitetail buck. While you're on stand, there is usually quite a bit of activity going on so it never gets boring! Every time I've been out to hunt with Keith I've gotten at least one good shot at wall deer (one that I would be proud to hang on my wall!). The accommodations are clean and well kept and the food is a wonderful treat to come back to after being afield all day. For me, its just a wonderful experience and if I don't get a deer, well then, it is usually my fault not Montana Whitetails!”
– Ross Lobell, MI

“Big Sky, Huge prairies, and gorgeous rivers, not to mention lot's of deer. What a great place to Bow hunt Big Whitetail Deer. Montana Whitetail's has it all, great accommodations, as well as stand locations, it is every Whitetail deer hunters dream. I'll be back.”
– DelMastro, Oxford, CT

“I was really skeptical on my trip to Montana Whitetails, we were going somewhere new and it was our first time elk hunting. From the time we where picked up at the airport we were put at ease. Our group was first time hunters to Montana. We have been deer and bear hunting in Saskatchewan, Canada for years. We hunted Montana in mid November and the elk were grouped up and hard to hunt. Steve and Rob worked so hard in those conditions to make sure my son and I had opportunities at elk. Steve ended up with frost bite in those conditions, he gave it his all during that week. I am from now on a loyal customer to these guys. One thing I can advise is you better be ready to walk and work. That's why it's called hunting, these guys will get you on the animals. Again, I can't stress enough the hunting is second to none, if you don't like being at Montana Whitetails I would recommend giving up hunting. Also, the support of local businesses after the harvest from taxidermy and meat processing is all good folks to work with and very accommodating.”
– Donovan Farley, WV

“Hi Keith, I just thought I would drop you a line to let you know what a great couple of hunts I had with you and Rob in 2011 and again in 2012. First of all I would also like to thank my good friend Mark Gottschaulk for doing all the research on literally a dozens or more outfitters and ultimately choosing Montana Whitetails for our hunt of a lifetime. Great Job Mark! Mark made his decision based on several conversations he had with you on the phone. He felt your style of hunting, personality and the Shields River would be a good matchup for a couple of Michigan bow hunters. He was right.

In 2011 we hunted with a great group of guys including Michigan Archery Hunting Legend Bob Eastman. The accommodations and meals exceeded our expectations. I was equally impressed with how you had set up all the tree stands and had predicted the deer movement and presented us all with several good practical opportunities on quality animals. On my third opportunity I was finally able to calm down enough to harvest a nice velvet 8 point. This was the buck we had to shoe the giant black bear away from in order to recover this nice buck. Your patients and words of encouragement where very commendable on this hunt. Then you were able to provide me with my first Elk hunting experience. I didn’t score on the elk but I did have a great encounter and pledged to return to get the job done. My good friend Mark scored a nice Shields River buck the last morning of our hunt. We drove back to Michigan planning our return trip all the way home.

In 2012 I returned with my younger brother Randy and again you and your staff provided yet another great hunt of a lifetime. Another great group of hunters including Jeff Millar from Bow hunter Magazine and TV. And a couple of Deer Thugs. Keith I believe and like the fact that you and Rob work hard for all your guest and don’t give any special treatment or opportunities to only a chosen few. Both years I noticed you and Rob worked hard for all you guest regardless of who they were, where they came from or how much experience they had. Special treatment and opportunity for all! “Thank you” Again you showed great patients. I was finally able to harvest another nice shields river buck and five minutes later a nice doe. My brother Randy and I had several close encounters with Elk throughout the week but were not able to capitalize on the opportunities you and Rob presented us. I hope to return again someday and harvest my first Elk with Montana Whitetails. Keith I must say you have some of the most sacred land I have ever had the privilege of hunting on. Keith Thanks again for two great hunts. God willing I will return someday soon. Feel free to use me as a reference any time.”
– Dan Hodder, MI

“When he was at 10 yards I stopped him and made the shot. The 10pt. made a small circle and dropped within sight, just on the other side of the river. The buck scored 124 3/8". I'd like to thank Keith and Bill for the work they put into these hunts. There were times when they went out in the middle of the night to put up new stands for hunters to give them the best chance for success. Thanks again guys, I had a great time!”
– Chris Herb, Elizabethville, Pennsylvania
