At Goodman Ranch, we proudly offer trophy elk hunting in Tennessee, giving hunters the rare opportunity to pursue one of North America’s most majestic animals without traveling out west. Our herd of Rocky Mountain Elk has thrived since being reintroduced to the region, and we are excited to provide hunters with world-class guided hunts right here in West Tennessee.
Our bull elk average 250"–300" class trophies, with larger bulls available upon request. Trophy elk hunts at Goodman Ranch include 3 days and 2 nights of lodging in our rustic lodge, hearty meals, and expert guidance. After your successful harvest, we will cape, quarter, and prepare your elk for transport, as well as handle all taxidermy needs.
Because of limited availability, we recommend booking early to secure your Tennessee elk hunt.



The North American Elk, also known as Wapiti, is one of the most iconic big game species. Their immense size and the unforgettable sound of bulls bugling at close range make them one of the most thrilling animals to hunt.
Once common throughout the eastern United States, the native Eastern Elk became extinct in the 1800s. Today, thanks to conservation, Rocky Mountain Elk have been successfully reintroduced to Tennessee and several other eastern states. At Goodman Ranch, we began raising elk in 2013, and our herd has flourished in the rolling landscapes of West Tennessee.
While elk can be pursued throughout the year, the late summer and early fall offer the best trophy opportunities. During this period, antlers are fully polished, and bulls have not yet begun to fight for dominance. Whether with a bow, muzzleloader, or rifle, hunters can enjoy an unforgettable guided elk hunt in Tennessee.
