If you’re searching for a personal, professionally guided hunt in western Kansas, Bow Creek Ranch Outfitters offers four distinct hunting opportunities: upland bird, dove, predator, and yak. Whether you’re new to guided hunting or returning for your next Kansas adventure, this guide will help you understand what we offer, what to expect, and how to prepare.
Four Hunts, One Ranch
Bow Creek Ranch is a family-owned operation dedicated to delivering personalized, high-quality hunts with warm hospitality. Every experience is hosted on our carefully managed property and includes lodging, meals, and transportation during your hunt.
Here’s a look at the types of hunts we offer:
Upland Bird Hunts
Bow Creek Ranch manages its upland habitat annually to support wild pheasant and quail populations while supplementing with raised game birds to ensure action-packed hunts. You’ll have access to thousands of acres of native and managed cover as you pursue:
- Pheasant
- Quail
- Chukar
These hunts are fully guided and include well-trained dogs. You’re also welcome to bring your own dog with prior notice.
Dove Hunts
If you’re looking for a fast-paced, social hunt, Kansas dove season offers an exciting option. Dove hunting at Bow Creek Ranch takes place in the early fall and provides excellent shooting opportunities during peak migration. These hunts are a great choice for small groups or first-time hunters looking for a relaxed but rewarding experience.
Predator Hunts
Bow Creek also offers predator hunts across the property, targeting coyotes and other species. These hunts can be tailored to your experience level and are an excellent way to challenge your calling skills or round out your time on the ranch with a different kind of pursuit.
Yak Hunts
For those looking for something entirely unique, Bow Creek Ranch offers yak hunts on the Kansas prairie. These guided hunts are both challenging and memorable, giving you the chance to pursue a rare species in a beautiful setting.
