About Us
The strength of Silver Sage Outfitters is the pride
that everyone involved takes in our clients success.
This starts at the top of the organization with the
outfitter himself and works its way down through each
and every member of the staff. When you hunt with
Silver Sage, you have more than just your guide to
count on, everyone available will be pulling together
for your success.
Josh Schuett
"Mister Intensity" is the workhorse of the operation. Josh annually logs the most hours in the field of all the guides and his versatility and enthusiasm for success are truly motivators for anybody around him. Josh has been known to quite literally grab a uncertain, confidence starved client and drag him kicking and hollering to the hunt of a lifetime. When times are tough this persistence has seen Josh and his clients through time and time again. Josh has turned his passion for the outdoors into a year round obsession and is one of the top coyote hunters anywhere. If you don't believe it just ask him!
Shaun Steidel
Nicknamed "Prairie Ghost" because of his preferred camo pattern and his uncanny spot and stalk abilities, Shaun is a favorite amongst our new and return clientele. An accomplished archer in his own right, Shaun holds the provincial archery antelope record @ 84 4/8 net, taken spot and stalk of course!
Your hunt with Shaun will focus on having fun first
and foremost and be prepared to be thorough. Shaun's
patience and meticulous hunting nature often times
creates shot opportunities out of situations others
would have long ago abandoned.
Dick Pietsch
"Peachy" is the Dean of the guides staff. A grizzled veteran of 20 plus years of service, there is no scenario that Dick hasn't encountered and surmounted in his storied guiding career. An accomplished gunsmith, Dick has on numerous occasions saved the day for clients arriving with or developing problems with their rifles during the hunt. A "jack of all trades" Dick rolls with situations as they present themselves and strives at all times for his clients success.
Billy Franklin - Outfitter
Mr. Antelope himself, with the help of his staff, Billy has emerged as arguably the #1 antelope outfitter in North America. With a passion for his craft that is infectious to those around him, Billy has made his mark by refusing to accept second best for his clients and leaves no rock unturned in his quest for providing his clients with the ultimate hunting experience. While Billy's actual guiding time has been curtailed recently by his growing responsibilities as the outfitter, he still manages 3 or 4 times a year to don his trademark Desert Storm camo and go afield himself to show the boys he hasn't lost his touch!All the Silver Sage team members are dedicated to providing the utmost in exciting and rewarding hunting experiences. There are few guarantees in the hunting world, but you can count on us for an unmatched level of preparation and effort.
We hope you will consider making Silver Sage Outfitters a part of your hunting future!
