FAQ
How do you typically hunt?
At the Happy M Ranch, we hunt from blinds, pop-ups, or jeeps. You may use a rifle, or bow hunting is available.
Does the Happy M have rifles available for me to use?
We definitely prefer you use a rifle you are accustomed to shooting but will rent you a rifle if necessary.
Will I have a guide?
Yes! There will be a guide for every hunt for our guests at the Happy M. Since we chose to limit our guests to 2 or less at a time, you receive our individual attention when you hunt with us.

Tips to the guide are not required but very much appreciated. Ten percent of the hunt price is customary.
How long are the hunts?
Our hunts last from Friday afternoon until Sunday at lunch.

Absolutely. We provide three delicious home-cooked meals as well as snacks and beverages throughout the day. You will definitely not go home hungry!
