Linda Donaho: The American Huntress
Steve & Brian: Thank you so much for one of the best weeks I’ve ever had! I’ve never seen so many mule deer. Everyday has been a grand adventure; culminating in meeting “Mr. Big”—my monster Muley.

The lodge, staff, and food belong in a feature article in Conde Nast’s Greatest Resorts. Down Home Family Fun with a World Class Mule Deer Hunting Adventure. Thank you for allowing us the opportunity of filming The American Huntress. Girls, Guns, + High Desert Ranch; It doesn’t get any better!!

Larry Weishuhn, Wildlife Biologist, Outdoor Writer
Host “A Hunters life with Larry Weishuhn and “Outfitters Rating with Larry Weishuhn” I have finally found what I’ve been searching for—a place and people who have a passion & a commitment for mule deer. I am impressed and after many years as a writer, wildlife biologist and TV show host, I am not easily impressed.

The finest food –fabulous facility, mule deer that with time will only grow larger and every bit of important the people who are High Desert Ranch—Attention to detail that is unparallel in the hunting world.

I am truly honored to have spent time on High Desert Ranch and experience enriched by being able to spend time with “The Natural Born” killers from Houston Safari Club. Thank you!

This trip to High Desert Ranch has been incredible!!! I can’t put into words how enjoyable the week has been. All I can do is gush & smile & laugh at the good times! The lodge is comfortable and welcoming, the staff & chef are wonderful—the food is absolutely wonderfully delicious and Carmen & Lacie were always friendly & solicitous. My guide Kyle was wonderful as well. It was a true treat to be a guest at this wonderful lodge.

AND to be a huntress at HDR and have the opportunity to see all the magnificent mule deer and then get to take a silver deer was a chance of a lifetime!!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! What a wonderful birthday treat for me and I will treasure my HDR photo album forever
