Full description and what we offer
Crooked Creek Outfitters operates guided big game hunts across prime hunting land in Northwest South Dakota's Harding County, with some areas bordering Montana. The outfitters are native to the region—owners Matt Gilbert and Pine Gilbert grew up in ranching families here, and partner John Hight has decades of experience in the outfitting business dating back to 1983.
Guided hunts available for both archery and firearm. Archery tags are a guaranteed draw through South Dakota Game, Fish & Parks. Firearm tags operate on a lottery system—both require direct application through the state licensing division.
The outfitters know their terrain well enough that hunters sometimes fill tags early in the season.
Hunters are housed in comfortable surroundings during their stay. Meals are not included unless prior arrangements are made directly with owner Matt Gilbert at (701) 523-1401.
| Name | Role |
|---|---|
| Matt Gilbert | Owner, guide, family ranching partner |
| Pine Gilbert | Owner, guide, ranch operations |
| John Hight | Founder, licensing expert, guide support |
Both Matt and Pine transitioned to full-time outfitting management in 2012, with John remaining available for support.
