Guided Hunts

The Hunt You Want, The Experience You Deserve.

At Buffalo Creek Outfitters, every hunt is custom built around you - your experience level, your goals, and the adventure you want to have. Whether you’re chasing a slam or just want a good day in wild country with good dogs, we’ve got you covered.

What’s Your Ideal Hunt?

The Hardcore Bird Hunter

Want to push deep into remote country and test your endurance? If you want long hikes, tough birds, and wild country we’ll take you where the birds don’t see many hunters.

The Classic Wing Shooter

Prefer a traditional upland experience with great dogs, great company, and a steady pace? We’ll set the pace just right to keep things fun and fruitful.

The Family Experience

Bringing a new hunter? We specialize in making the experience safe, fun, welcoming and rewarding for kids, spouses, and those new to the sport.

Hunt Information

All of our upland bird hunts are operated as “Day Hunts”. This means your guide will pick you up from your lodging at a prearranged time and transport you to the hunt area for the day’s adventure. Each hunt is paced to your fitness and comfort level but expect a full day on your feet. Terrain includes sage flats, rocky draws, and wide-open basins in Wyoming’s high desert. It’s wild country-and that’s what makes it unforgettable. It’s important for you to set realistic expectations and come prepared for an active day.

Sage Grouse Updates

Historically Sage Grouse season in Wyoming opens the 3rd Saturday of September and runs through the end of the month. For the 2026 season, that gives us 12 DAYS to get after these iconic birds. If a sage grouse hunt is on your list, got on our waitlist early - these dates will fill fast, and when they’re gone, they’re gone. We will start accepting deposits for the 2026 season in February.
