Our History
Hunting has been a part of the Prunty Ranch since the late 1940s, when Shorty Prunty started guiding mule deer hunters as one of the very first licensed master guides in the state of Nevada.
Shorty and Marge raised their sons, Dick and Gary, on the ranch, working alongside the cowboys and haying crews, and helping during hunting season.
Shorty and his sons guided for many years, and in turn, they shared the love of the outdoors and a good adventure with the next generation.
Today, the family remains one of only three outfitting services permitted to guide in the Jarbidge Wilderness area, Nevada hunt area 071 and Nevada hunt area 072, offering:
Unique location & available facilities:
The home ranch is ideally situated in the heart of Nevada hunt areas 071 and 072, which have produced a multitude of outstanding big game animals through the years and are often considered “hunt of a lifetime” territory.
Experienced guides & horses:
Our guides are horsemen and experienced hunters themselves. They are deeply familiar with the areas we hunt and game movement patterns. Our horses are used for ranch work throughout the year.
Personalized, quality experience:
With the outfitting business being only one aspect of the ranch’s operation, we do not operate as an “assembly line outfitting” business and accept only a limited number of clients.
