Where is mellon creek ranch

There are lots of species of game to hunt including whitetail deer, wild hogs, coyotes, bobcat, turkey, and even Nilgai. If you need a break from chasing game animals they even have the option to go fishing. From the lodging to meals to the actual hunt there is not much else a hunter could ask for. If you are on the hunt for your next hunt you should give them serious consideration. I was incredibly impressed and I believe you will be, too.

So the meals were excellent, we got that covered I think. On top of the great cooking, they had all kind of snacks, crackers, chips, candy, you name it. Mellon Creek was also willing to get whatever you'd like that they didn't already have. After I scored on the first evening out, we decided to do a Bobcat hunt.

The cat hunt can last all night and since I had already been deer hunting all day I asked at lunch if they had any Redbull. They didn't but said "I'm headed to town after lunch and will grab some". Sure enough at dinner before the cat hunt there were plenty of Redbull's to get me through the all night hunt! Also included in the menu is beer and wine. They had a large cooler with 3 or 4 different kinds of beer on the back porch for winding down in the evenings and telling the stories of the day around the fire pit.

Food was first class for sure but 2nd to the hunting sorry Joe! The Guides During my 4 day hunt I had the opportunity to hunt with a few of the guides at Mellon Creek. The two main guides I'm not sure on the exact structure so don't quote me on that do an excellent job of managing the ranch as well as guiding the clients. All the guides work well as a team. Plain and simple, together they get it done. The guides know the ranch, they know the animals and they know how to get their clients opportunities.

There were 3 hunters in camp with me and everyone scored on great management bucks, 2 of us on the first day!! I don't know about all other camps, but I can tell you, of all the others that I have hunted in, that has never happened!

I was speaking with my guide Dan the week after my trip and he happened to be guiding a bowhunter that week. Dan actually got this hunter four different shot opportunities with a BOW in his 3. For an outfitter, guide, or anyone to get four different chances at nice bucks in 3. To me that is just incredible and having been to Mellon Creek and seen the ranch first hand, I can honestly say it is certainly a possibility! The Hunt Arriving at camp on Thursday afternoon before hunt, I wasn't there 15 minutes before my guide Dan, asked me if I was ready.

I threw on my boots, grabbed my gun and we headed to the range. I had a slight mishap with forgetting the keys to my gun case at the lodge, but it wasn't too far back to get them thankfully.
