Premium Hunt Ranch and Profitable Whitetail Production Business
Business Description
Profitable and reputable business with international client base
Imagine waking up to the crisp air of the Saskatchewan prairies, deep ravines, and wooded coulees under endless Saskatchewan skies. As the owner, this is your reality—a rare opportunity to own a profitable and reputable trophy game ranch and elite hunting business that blends passion, profit, and adventure. For a buyer eager to operate a world-class operation, this is your chance to step into a legacy of excellence, backed by 27 years of expertise and a proven business model.
Nestled just an hour from Regina International Airport and 2 hours 20 minutes from Scobey, MT, spans two prime properties: a 160-acre production facility and a 320-acre hunting ranch, plus an additional 55 acres secured by a 99-year lease. This isn’t just land—it’s a lifestyle and a lucrative enterprise. The operation combines raising premium big game with offering unforgettable hunting experiences for elite international clients, generating revenue that far surpasses traditional agriculture.
The Production Facility: Where Trophy Legends Are Born
At the heart of the business is the 160-acre production facility, built on fertile #3 soil with lush alfalfa and brome grass pastures. Here, you’ll begin raising over 500 deer, leveraging 900 straws of high-quality whitetail and mule deer semen with renowned genetics to produce trophy-caliber animals. 11 miles of 8-foot game fencing, 12 corrals, 8 alleyways, and winterized waterers make animal handling seamless. A 32’x24’ barn and grazing paddocks support a herd that can include elk, bison, or even bighorn sheep sourced from trusted Western Canadian breeders.
Your home base is a 2,500 sq. ft., solar-powered, 4-bedroom residence with 17-foot cathedral ceilings, two fireplaces, and an attached insulated garage. Two offices within the home keep operations running smoothly. With a herd ready in just two years, you’ll be producing premium whitetails and mule deer for your hunts or for sale to other ranches.
The Hunting Ranch: A World-Class Experience
The 320-acre hunting ranch is a hunter’s haven, with diverse terrain—blue clay hills, flowing springs, and wooded coulees—that makes every hunt challenging and rewarding. The crown jewel is the 3,400 sq. ft. geothermal-heated lodge, built in 2012, designed for elite international hunters. With five luxurious bedrooms, a master suite with a Jacuzzi, a gourmet kitchen, and a great room with leather sofas and a fireplace, it’s a retreat that commands $13,000-$400,000 CAD per hunt package. A 40’x60’ equipment shed, completed in 2016, includes a meat cooler, workspace, and staff quarters for your guide or cook. Six miles of 8-foot fencing and predator-proofing ensure your animals are secure, while the adjacent 55-acre leased land expands your hunting grounds.
A Proven, Profitable Business
The reputation is built on 20 years of relationships with wealthy clients, brokers, and suppliers across the U.S., Europe, and Asia. Premium whitetail trophies fetch $12,000-$40,000 CAD each, with low input costs of ~$1,000. Past sales include 58 trophy bucks in 2016 and ongoing semen sales to other ranches. With priority booth placements at major U.S. hunting tradeshows and TV hunting show visibility, your client pipeline is robust. The current owners have paused marketing yet still receive consistent inquiries—proof of demand.
Your Path to Success
With 27 years of experience and leadership in the cervid industry, the sellers will personally mentor you, sharing their expertise in animal husbandry, genetics, and market access. You’ll inherit their extensive network of high-end clients, suppliers, and government contacts, plus a skilled team of guides, farmworkers, and a cervid veterinarian. The operation is primed for growth: expand into elk or sheep, scale up herd production, or tap into international tourism. With all equipment, fencing, and facilities included—valued at over $2.8 million—you’re ready to hit the ground running.

This is a rare operation that combines both mule deer and Whitetail production in SK. Most outfitters offer hunts to only locals. This business has focused on international premium clientele.
- Opportunities for Growth
- The combined full-scale operation has the capacity to comfortably raise 500+ deer,
including the option to use industry-leading genetics. The current owners have ceased advertising and marketing, but continue to receive consistent incoming calls for trophy hunts. Typically, a herd can be formed within 2 years. A deer requires about 2 years to mature to be hunt-ready. New buyers can start selling hunts immediately by purchasing animals from suppliers and begin developing their herd(s). It will take about 2 years to develop an animal ready for hunts.
