Our Hunting Guides Successful hunts are a combination of many factors, not the least of which is guides who are proficient hunters themselves. At Nine Mile Guest Ranch and RTS Hunting, guides are a huge part of the success story. Most of them are native to our area, and the ones who aren’t have been with us the longest and have learned the properties top to bottom. Our guides love to hunt and love to help others have successful hunts. |
