TESTIMONIALS

“My hunt at Montana Whitetails was a remarkable experience, I hunted the second week in September and it was a very good hunting experience. The deer movement was amazing! I was able to see 20 to 30 deer in a sit. The hunting was amazing because not only did I see whitetail deer, but I saw mule deer, antelope, moose, and sometimes even elk. There was never a dull moment in the hunts, I hunted hard for 6 days and Keith did everything he could to make my hunt a success. I was able to connect on a very nice 134 inch 9 point at only 20 yards. I saw many shooter bucks from ranges of 140" and some even 150" +. The lodge is very nice, its clean and has that homey feel, and not to mention the cooking is great! Your never hungry after dinner. Everybody in the lodge gets along and helps make your trip that much better. I would definitely recommend this to any hunter that is looking for a very good hunting trip with a good success rate and great times. I know I will definitely be back to do it again.”

“My 2005 hunt with Montana Whitetails ranks near the top of my “Best Hunts” list. Good people, good food, fantastic scenery and, most importantly, lots of big whitetail bucks. I saw more Pope and Young-class bucks in one week than most people will see in a lifetime. In November 2006 I’ll be back with my cameraman to tape another episode of Bowhunter Magazine TV.”

“This was my first time out to Montana and I had an outstanding time. The first day out I got a nice mule deer. During the course of week I was there I could not believe the trophy whitetails I saw every day. On Thursday I got a really nice 6 by 6 Elk. Keith and Bill know the area really well and know how the game moves on the property. I saw antelope, moose, whitetail and mule deer continually while I was there. I would highly recommend Montana Whitetails to anyone. I plan on going back to bowhunt in the near future.”

“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.”

“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

“Can't say enough good things about hunting with this outfitter and the quality of their hunt. Have been there three years in a row and going again this 2014 season. Incredible Rocky Mountain Montana river bottom setting where you see an incredible amount of animals at an incredible camp with outfitter/guides that really do everything they can to make your hunt and overall experience outstanding as well as successful from the standpoint of getting you a shot opportunity. They put their time in. You can easily see 50-60 different bucks in a weeks hunt and sometimes more. Saw moose, elk, pronghorns, mule deer, black bear, grouse, pheasants, eagles, and shot a coyote one year. You never know what'll walk by when you're on stand. Not to mention the great trout fishing out the back door of the lodge. Have been to other outfitters but nothing came close to this well appointed, low key, gentlemen s, hunt/vacation - and they're gracious and appreciative that you're there to boot.”
– John Olin, NJ

“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

“This was my second time hunting with Montana Whitetails and I will be back again. Keith does a great job managing his leases and has so many stands scattered about the river bottom that you are guaranteed to get an opportunity at a good buck. Betty's cooking is always tasty and the new beds were extremely comfortable. Do yourself a favor and hunt with Montana whitetails, Keith runs a quality operation!”
– Robert Wilkinson, VA

“This was my second yearly hunt with Montana Whitetails. My first hunt in 2012 was a fantastic success. I harvested my first elk, a beautiful 6 x 6 and, a fantastic whitetail. The hunt was so great it caused me to book a deer and antelope hunt in 2013 that was also great. I harvested a beautiful whitetail and an antelope. The game was plentiful! I saw elk, eagles, turkeys, and moose along with whitetails and mule deer. I even did some fly fishing on the shields river near lodge. The lodge is extremely nice and the food is fantastic. Keith, Steve, and Rob are excellent Hosts, and guides seeing to everyone's needs. The chef provided excellent food all week. I am returning again this fall anticipating another great hunt!”
– Jude Burgess, VT

“The guys at Montana Whitetails did an excellent job at hosting us for our first hunt in Montana. Our target species was whitetail and there was no lack of quality game in those river bottoms. Rob/Steve/Keith did an excellent job at reading the weather and reports on game movement to ensure that each hunter was set up for success. Top that off with great trout fishing, beautiful scenery, excellent accommodations, great food, fun camaraderie, and you have the hunt of a lifetime!”
– Michael Brookhart, NY
