The Bison Ranch

Overview

The Bison Ranch features thousands of acres of rolling virgin prairie which meets farmland where row crops and small grains flourish. This diversity of habitat is where whitetail deer thrive. Due to certain restrictions on non-resident hunting in North Dakota, it is somewhat difficult to get a rifle tag for whitetail bucks. These tags are drawn by lottery. Applications become available during May on the North Dakota Game & Fish website, the deadline is in early June, and the lotteries are held in July and August. Denied applicants receive preference points for subsequent lotteries. However, archery deer tags are readily available over the counter. Although trees are few and far between in this country, we have several deer stands on private shelterbelts and draws where some nice deer have been harvested.
