Deer Hunts
Montana General Deer Odds Rifle
Sylvester & Sons deer hunts are offered on select private Montana ranches chosen for exceptional habitat quality, low pressure, and long-term wildlife management. These carefully
managed properties provide the opportunity to pursue mature mule deer and whitetail in a quiet, controlled setting.
Rifle deer hunts are conducted during Montana’s general rifle season, with hunter numbers intentionally limited to preserve the integrity of each ranch and maintain a high-quality experience.
The Montana General Deer Tag is a proven way to hunt quality deer without waiting years to draw a limited permit. Issued through Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks, this tag offers flexibility across multiple districts and a real opportunity at mature western bucks.

Nonresidents must draw a General Deer Combination License using Montana’s Preference Point System: One standard preference point per year booking with us allows an additional Outfitter Preference Point maximum: 3 preference points more points = higher priority in the draw with 2–3 points, drawing is typically very attainable. At Sylvester and Sons, we handle the application strategy and focus on mature bucks. If you want a straightforward Montana deer hunt done right, the General Tag delivers.
