 Montana Big Game Hunting Outfitter 

We at Rick Wemple, Inc. have decades of combined experience in guided trips in our home state of Montana. In 2024, Rick Wemple Outfitting, Inc. will begin a transition of ownership to Matt Turner. Matt has been guiding with Rick for several years, and all over Montana for decades.

Our Mission

Rick, Matt, and our team of professional guides all share a love of the outdoors, a respect for wildlife, and commitment to providing clients with an excellent experience. Our mission is not just getting you your animal but in maintaining a reputation as an honest and top-rated outfitter in Montana.

We love sharing the outdoors with you whether it’s hunting, fishing, or horseback trips. Our favorite service we provide is training the next generation of outdoor experts through our guide school! Stay tuned in future seasons as we add these offerings back in. For the upcoming ’24 season, we will focus solely on big game hunting. If a quality hunt is what you are hunting for, then keep reading!

Our Hunts

We are permitted to hunt over a million acres of forest! Here in the majestic Bitterroot and Sapphire Mountain ranges we have ample ungulate prey (elk, deer, moose, goat, and sheep) as well as predators (mountain lion, wolf, bear) to pursue. We can also target antelope in our eastern private land hunting area.

 

We hunt hard from dawn til’ dusk. While we do use 4x4 vehicles to access our hunting areas, your chance of success is better if you are in good hiking shape. A little luck with the weather helps too, but regardless, our experienced guides work hard to get you the best opportunity they can at the game of your choice.

More bang for your buck!

Unlike many Western Montana outfitters, we don’t utilize stock during hunting season. We focus on the hunt, not the horsemanship. Too often, outfitters hastily roll their summer wranglers into novice guides who must still care for the stock. Our staff start as apprentices and work into guides, and they are here solely for you and your hunt.

 

We also don’t waste the first and last day of the hunt riding into a backcountry camp like other outfits. Return instead to the privacy of your own space each night in the quaint town of Hamilton. Choose your own meals, set your own thermostat, be in cell range to call home, and rest up without the diversions of camp/lodge life. Have more control over your own hunt!

 

If we sound like your kind of outfit, keep browsing our site to learn even more. Then, contact us if you still have more questions or feel ready to book. We hope to hunt with you soon!
