McCoy Hunting Ranch

McCoy Hunting Ranch sits on 1,500 acres of rolling hills, timber, meadows, swamps, and flowing streams near Long Prairie, Minnesota. The McCoy brothers—Tom, Jack, and Phil—have been ranching elk since 1989, starting in Colorado before relocating to Minnesota. They manage one of the largest elk herds in the country, along with substantial whitetail deer and buffalo populations.

"You can't help but appreciate all the sights and sounds of the great North American Wilderness – the elk bulls bugling in rut, elk cows calling their young, the beauty of the birds and the majesty of a doe and her fawn."

You choose what matters to you:

• •Species: Trophy elk, whitetail deer, or buffalo
• •Weapon: Rifle, black powder, or bow
• •Duration: Two-day minimum hunts available; longer hunts negotiable
• •Guide preference: Go solo or hunt with an experienced guide
• •Skill level: Hunts designed for beginners through seasoned hunters

Many hunters appreciate the two-day option—get away from the office, spend time with friends or family, and leave with your trophy. The terrain varies across the property, so you're stalking through different challenges depending on the day.

Elk bulls score up to and over 400 points. Whitetail and buffalo offer their own trophy potential. Field dressing and meat processing are handled through local partners—ranch staff takes care of the work so you focus on the hunt.

Booking window runs September through March. Contact the ranch directly for current availability, specific pricing, and custom package details.
