Lone Star Outfitters offers private ranch hunts in
the heart of trophy elk country. We provide our hunters with fair chase
hunts for trophy, monster bull elk. The famed Vermejo Park and Hill ranches
are just 6.5 miles south and southwest of our ranch in Colorado. These
ranches now offer over 1,000,000 acres of prime trophy elk habitat and an elk
herd of proven genetics. Our goal is to provide reasonable priced hunts for
these proven trophy, quality bulls.

Colorado Mule Deer $5500
Lone Star Outfitters harvested
2 mule deer bucks on our ranch in Colorado in 2008 and 6
Trophy Bucks in 2009. Mule Deer had not been harvested
for the prior 8 years allowing the herd size to recover
and the trophy bucks to mature. This has allowed us to
take bucks scoring 191 3/8, 168, 162, 158, and 156
while leaving many trophy quality bucks for the coming
seasons. Neighboring ranches have also followed a
similar game management practice allowing the herds to
increase in size and quality. The upcoming hunting
season should provide opportunities for mature 190-210
inch mule deer bucks based on the high numbers of mature
bucks left on the ranch after this past season.

Colorado
Mountain Lion $4500
We hunt mountain lions from the end of the last
Elk / Deer Season in November until the end of March of the following year.
Approximately 30 cats are harvested from this unit each year. Our success rate is very near 100% because of
the way we approach the hunt. We prefer to wait for a fresh tracking snow,
find fresh tracks of the size we are looking for and then ask the hunter to
arrive within the next 24 hours to chase the cat. This method is very
productive and makes an exciting hunt from the first release of the dogs. We
have access to approximately 70,000 acres of private ranch lands for the
hunt and Cats are very abundant. Be ready for some hair raising excitement.

Colorado Spring
& Fall Merriam's Turkey $1000
Lone Star Outfitters has
experienced near 100% success hunting these long
beards over the last 10 years. Only missed shots and
lost birds have tarnished our record. The ranch is
blessed with many roosts, 2 creeks and 4 tanks or
watering holes that hold these birds for our
hunters.
The Spring Turkey Season opens April 11, 2009 and
runs through May 25, 2009. We are offering 9 hunts this year starting April
11th so book your preferred week soon for the best times.
The Fall Turkey Season runs from September 9, 2009
until October 5th, 2009. These dates overlay the fall elk and deer archery
and muzzle loading seasons and the early fall bear season. For that reason,
we only offer fall turkey hunts from September 26 through October 5th,
2009.
All our turkey hunts are for 2 days, usually
filling tags on the first day. The hunter is responsible for their own meals
and lodging in nearby Trinidad Colorado. We provide all transportation to
and from the ranch and while hunting. Additional hunting days can be
provided for $250.00 per day should the birds not cooperate.
