Why Horsetrack Outfitters tops the list
The ranking below isn't sorted by price or raw star average. It weighs a rating by how many reviews back it up, so a thin perfect score doesn't automatically outrank a deeper one a notch lower. Horsetrack leads because its rating holds up across the deepest review count near the top, not because it's the cheapest or the flashiest.
The trap in these numbers
Every price here is a flat trip total or a whole-hunt per-hunter rate, not a per-day figure, so don't stack one against a per-day elk quote. The range above already excludes a mandatory add-on fee every Montana outfitter charges, plus a non-hunting companion rate that isn't the hunt's own price.
What this range doesn't include
Montana draws bighorn sheep tags by lottery, district by district, which is why this range runs so much wider than an over-the-counter elk or deer hunt. The tag itself, and your odds of drawing one, come from Montana FWP, not from an outfitter's rate card. Check there before you book. Once you've drawn, what you're paying for above is the guide, the camp, and the country: apply first, price second.

How we rank: Outfitters are ranked by a credibility-weighted rating that blends each outfitter's verified Google star rating with how many reviews back it up — so a strong average from many hunters outranks the same average from only a few — then by the breadth of bighorn sheep packages they offer (live inventory, last updated August 2026). Prices, ratings and review counts come straight from each outfitter's current listings — always confirm details before you book.
