    The Sheehy ranch is as described in the Landtrust platform—beautiful and game filled. We were there for a last week of the season turkey hunt. Although unsuccessful in killing any, we heard multiple gobbling birds each morning and enjoyed the action. We passed up jakes, who were all blowing it out gobbling, and we couldn’t distinguish their sound from mature birds. The house on the ranch was well equipped and comfortable. Jon was available for anything we needed or had questions about but allowed us to “do our thing” and enjoy his beautiful property with as much privacy as we wanted. These are real good folks and we wouldn’t hesitate to return.

    Waited 24 years to draw a special region bull tag. Jon was very accommodating and answered all my questions before booking and didn't pressure me while I thought about it. House came stocked with everything we needed to be comfortable for a week. We hunted 7 of our 8 days, skipped the last day due to really bad weather. Saw multiple bulls including some well into the mid to upper 300s. In total we saw 15 individual bulls and only about 10 cows. It's very open country so getting them to get really close was difficult. I was able to get a few into 80 yards but just didn't have the right angle in order to be comfortable taking the shot. There were also really nice representative bucks for both Whitetail and Mule Deer. If I draw this tag again, I'll be calling up Jon for another stay.

    The Sheehy ranch is a beautiful ranch and Jon was a great host. A good private camping area was provided along with thorough instructions and directions on the hunting areas. I was successful with a mule deer buck on the first evening and saw other deer the next evening while out viewing. Jon also showed me some of the old homesteads and shared some family history, very thankful for that as a solo hunter. Tom Maya.

    Of all of the places in Montana that I’ve hunted the Sheehy ranch tops them all. Jon was amazing and the property was not only gorgeous but was full of game. The property was easily accessible and very hunter friendly. I went for my spring turkey hunt and was graced with a mature gobbler coming in moments after shooting light with plenty more gobbling up and down the draw. Jon was quick to respond to messages and questions about the property. If your looking for a truly one of a kind hunting experience I’d highly suggest the Sheehy ranch over anyplace else.
