Two ways to hunt Mexico

We work with more than one outfitter here. Each offers something different, and we’ll help you choose the right fit for your hunt, budget and group.

LODGE 1 NORTHERN MEXICO

A wingshooting lodge with a little of everything

Whitewing dove shoots along the field edges, ducks and geese, bobwhite quail and wild turkey, with whitetail, exotics and predator hunts for the big game side of the trip. A great pick for a group of friends.

The lodge sits right on the water, with a pool under the palms, a covered dock, a trophy-filled lounge and a big dining room. Fresh seafood and Mexican dishes come out of the kitchen every night, and the hunting fields are a short drive away.

LODGE 2 SONORA

Trophy mule deer, Coues deer and desert bighorn

The country. More than 250,000 acres of free-range ranches in Sonora, managed for older age-class animals and known for world-class mule deer, Coues whitetail and desert bighorn sheep with incredible genetics.

Mule deer. This is the place to chase a free-range buck in the 170 to 190-inch-plus class. Hunts run during the rut, from mid-to-late December through the end of January, when bucks are on the move and a true giant can show up anywhere. You’ll hunt by glassing, spot-and-stalk and from high racks.

Coues deer. The same ranches hold trophy Coues whitetail, the small, wary desert deer prized by serious collectors, and every Mexico hunt here can add a Coues buck for a harvest fee, so you can take a mule deer and a Coues on the same trip.

Desert bighorn sheep. A hunt every serious sheep hunter should experience. Tags on these ranches are very limited, and rams typically score 155 to 170 inches or better. Hunts are free-range and fair chase with a 100% success record, and every ram gets a CITES permit so it can be imported into the U.S. Expect a more physical hunt than the deer hunts, in the steep country sheep favor, so come in good shape. Rifle hunts run on flexible dates from December through March.

Guides & logistics. Every hunter has at least one English-speaking guide at all times, working alongside bilingual Mexican guides. The ranch houses are very comfortable, and the food and hospitality are a highlight of the trip. Transportation to and from the Phoenix airport is included. Bring your own rifle and the outfitter handles the gun permit, or use one of a limited number of ranch rifles.
