Deadman Spring Outfitters

Deadman Spring Outfitters is a family-owned operation based in Albuquerque, NM, specializing in fully guided big game hunts across New Mexico. Owners Jeremiah and Amber Miller run the outfitter from their location at 9908 Mesa Arriba Ave NE, Albuquerque, NM 87111 (505-239-6690).

Non-resident hunters booking through a registered outfitter get access to 10% of available hunting tags in each unit—double the 6% allocation for general non-resident applicants. The catch: you must contract with the outfitter for a minimum of two days if drawn.

Hunting pronghorn antelope on state lands and private ranches. Both draw hunts and landowner permit hunts available. DMSO provides expertly scouted locations, blind setups, and pronghorn behavior guidance.

• •5-day fully accommodated hunts using skilled hound dogs and houndsmen. The hunt combines adrenaline and strategy:
• •Hounds catch the scent and track the bear
• •Hunters follow on foot, truck, or ATV
• •Dogs tree the bear
• •Hunter makes the shot

Hound dog hunts in rugged New Mexico landscapes. Similar to bear hunts—hounds track, tree the lion, hunter closes in and takes their shot. Demands patience, stamina, and respect for the terrain.

• •Merriam's wild turkey during spring season (peak breeding season). Hunters can obtain two turkey tags per season, allowing harvest of up to two bearded turkeys.

Highly competitive, prestigious hunts. Securing sheep tags in New Mexico requires several years of waiting due to demand. These hunts test your skills in diverse, breathtaking mountainous terrain.
