White Tail and Mule Deer

mule deer hunters on our working cattle ranch in NebraskaThe Ponderosa Ranch offers semi-guided   hunting on this scenic 3,300-acre working cattle ranch which is on top of the Pine Ridge area of Northwest Nebraska.  Our package includes lodging up to 5 nights, 5 meals,  and 4 days of semi-guided hunting. Extra meals are available.   For the rifle season, we take two groups of 3 to 4 hunters each.  Each group will have one end of the ranch entirely to themselves.  We also take in a limited number of archery and black powder hunters.successful deer hunt fall 2008

 

 

Semi-guided means that we will  drive you around the ranch to show you where fences, gates, stock tanks/creeks and boundary fences are. Plan to arrive at the Ponderosa Ranch early afternoon (during daylight) the day  before your hunt starts.    You will be provided with a topographic ranch map.  The headquarter area is situated in the center of the ranch.  You can either walk from the cabin to hunt, or use a 4x4 vehicle on the logging roads.
