Elk & Mule Deer Hunts

Oak Valley Outfitters is offering New Mexico Elk hunts on private ranches bordering the Gila National Forest in Units 22 and 23. We have leased private ranches in excess of 60,000 acres in the famed southwest trophy areas of the state. Our ranch borders units 16A and 16B. Exceptional trophy potential exists in these areas and elk over 400” have been harvested from our ranches in the past 10 years.

We offer guaranteed landowner tags, but encourage each hunter to enter the state drawing. Test your archery skills during the rut for bugling bulls or come for the rifle hunt and stalk the herds. We will also be offering some very exciting mule deer hunting with limited space. Experience the pristine beauty and sacred grounds of the southwest this fall. Book your hunt early as state draw deadlines are due in the spring of the same calendar before your hunt that fall.

Testimonials

“Hi John. I just wanted to say thank you for a great elk hunt in New Mexico this past season. My dad and I had a ball and the elk he took was fantastic. This country is truly beautiful and I would love to come back out and try the bow hunt and also go after those huge mule deer we saw everyday. Take care. Good luck during deer season.”

- Josh Johnson, Illinois

“A big thanks from Illinois! We had a good hunt this year. I didn’t get that big bull we chased around but it sure was fun hunting him. The hunting was a truly memorable experience for me. Being from the Midwest, I had never witnessed western mountains, wildlife or that kind of atmosphere. Keep up the good work.”

- Danny Gibson, Illinois

“John that was one of the most exciting elk hunts I have ever been on. The way we called that bull across that prairie was unbelievable. He wasn’t the biggest bull I’ve shot but probably the most rewarding. Keep in touch, I would love to come back out and try it again. You have a great place with excellent trophy potential.”

- Tony Hamilton, Mississippi

“I had a fantastic time hunting with you this past elk season. If it weren’t for the warm weather I know we would have gotten on those bigger bulls a little better. You have a great place and I know the trophy elk are there. Chasing the javelina and turkeys was a lot of fun too! I look forward to our next hunt, I may try the archery hunt next time.”

- Pat Link, Virginia

“What a hunt is all I can say. You put me on the elk of a lifetime and after only one day. I never expected that hunt to go down like that. The 7 X 7 bull was awesome. I wanted one true trophy for the wall and I got it. Beautiful country, the southwest is my favorite place. There is a lot of history there and I fully enjoyed the trip. Thanks again.”

- George Randall, Kansas

“John, my dad and I had a great trip to New Mexico this year. I had been on 3 elk hunts up to this point but hadn’t closed the deal. It was a blast being able to witness the elk rut like that and hearing them answer us with the bugles. We saw several elk. The terrain was challenging but not too bad. I know I saw bigger bulls on the trip, but I was very happy with my first bull. The elk meat is excellent. Good luck with the rest of your clients and during deer season. I would like to try the whitetail hunt this year as well.”
