Questions About Hunting

Do you host multiple groups at the same time?

We only host 1 hunting group at a time. We work with a point of contact for each hunting package. That person will determine the hunting group members.

What level of experience is needed to hunt at GBL?

Guests should be familiar with their hunting guns and are responsible for making the decision to shoot.  Guests are responsible for taking appropriate care of their harvested game. We will assist guests new to hunting, if requested.

Tips for Hunting from a Stand

What do I need to bring?

Food and drinks

Hunting license guns and gear

Personal toiletries and medications

Coolers and ice for game

If you bring a pop-up blind, plan to set it up soon after arrival to allow game time to get used to it. 

Hunting Checklist

What does GBL provide?

Our hunting packages include lodging in our ranch house.  

Our kitchen (including refrigerator, dishes, and silverware),  grill, smoker, and walk-in cooler are available for guest use. 

We provide coffee in the morning. 

Bedrooms and bathrooms are furnished with blankets, pillows, linens, towels, soaps, and toilet paper.

Our shooting range may be used, but each hunting guest should sight-in their guns before arrival at the ranch.

GBL provides transportation within the ranch.

Why do you have a policy limiting the number of youth in a group?

GBL supports youth hunting. In our experience, limiting each hunting group to only one youth helps promote a safe and productive hunting package.  Exceptions are possible, but need to be discussed prior to arrival at GBL. 

Do you allow bow hunting?

We do not offer bow hunting in our hunting packages.

What are the Ranch Rules?

Respect the Animals

You are responsible for any animal you shoot, recovered or not.

Only listed "Add-on" animals may be hunted.

No hunting from around the house and adjacent grounds.

Unethical or unsportsmanlike conduct will not be tolerated.

Guests are asked to keep a low profile in terms of their voice and activities.

Respect the Property

No littering. 

Do not leave food or trash in blinds.

No smoking inside any building or hunting area.

No removal of items from the ranch without permission.

For Your Safety and Ours

Guns should be loaded only when hunting. 

Always pay close attention while loading and unloading.

Follow basic gun handling safety procedures at all times.

Consumption of alcoholic beverages is allowed, in moderation, when not  hunting.

Fires are allowed only in designated fire pits and not during county burn bans.

Non-hunting guests must stay within the house grounds or in a blind.

Guests 17 and younger may not stay alone in the ranch house.


What else do I need to know?

Hunting package prices are a minimum, per hunter charge, whether or not all included items and services (nights of lodging, days of hunting, and included game) are used.

All game is "Hunter's Choice." GBL Ranch has no "cull" designations. Only goats have a length of horn associated with their fees.  This is to differentiate between meat and trophy game.  


In each hunting package, animals are considered taken if wounded.  The Ranch staff will work with hunting guests to track and will have final say on all tracking activity.

Guests at GBL for hunting may be asked to leave early if they cannot respect the Ranch Rules. The hunting package fees will still apply.

Our hunting packages include guests and staff eating family-style.  We will assist with meal planning, provisioning, and preparation as needed.

No ATV's or animals may be brought in by our hunting package guests.  


There is a ranch cat that may be in and around the house area, but there are no ranch animals in hunting areas.

Bow hunting is not permitted at GBL Ranch.  However hunting package guests may practice with targets in the ranch house yard.
