About Us

Doonan Gulch Outfitters is a small, family owned and operated business. Doonan Gulch offers some of the best Archery and Rifle Antelope, Elk, White-tail and Mule Deer hunting in Powder River County of Southeastern Montana. Opportunity for spring and fall Turkey as well as Upland Game Birds.

Hunting occurs on our private land, Custer National Forest and BLM permitted areas, as well as thousands of acres of privately-held leased land. Doonan Gulch Outfitters hunt fair chase and there are no guarantees. Typically we see lots of game animals and we strive to get you as close to the prey as possible, however shots could exceed 200 yards in some cases. Hunting terrain varies from timbered hills and draws to creek bottoms or sagebrush prairies. Weather is unpredictable, ranging from sunny and mild to cold and windy with heavy snowfall.

Once your primary animal is taken, you may elect to hunt upland game birds, go prairie dog or varmint shooting; or spend a leisurely day photographing the area.
