Upon arrival to Great Falls you are invited to make your way to the Blue Collar Bird Dogs facility to meet your host and the dogs that will be working hard for you to make your hunting trip enjoyable and memorable.
Weather and sunlight permitting you will enjoy some refreshments, shoot some clays, play a round or two of horse shoes or corn hole and discuss the plans for your trip.
Celebration Barbecue
If you have spent three days or more hunting with us, it is time to relax and celebrate your harvest. Enjoy a freshly prepared barbecue. Spend some time relaxing by the fire, reliving your trip.
horseback hunting
Are you looking for the ultimate hunting experience? Imagine the excitement of chasing pointers on horseback as they point pheasants, huns and grouse.
We are proud to offer horseback hunting on our steady Tennessee Walker, Rocky Mountain and Kentucky Mountain Horses.
Our horses are trained to coordinate their skills with our dogs in giving you a successful hunt. When hunting on horseback you can cover more territory and get into the back country where few hunters reach. That is where you find the most game. For safety purposes we allow only experienced riders.
