Mediocre hunt--save your money
This is not a very professionally ran business. I would not recommend this outiftter based primarily on the fact that you are paying for a guided hunt that is not very well guided. Tony's guides are bad, you are better off going on a self guided hunt on public land. The archery hunts are in a wilderness area that is public and over pressured by other hunters. His success rates are exagerated. Save your money, book with someone else.

Kansas is one of the top producing monster whitetail buck states in the country. It also has some excellent turkey hunting and a few big mule deer in the western part of the state. Kansas has an excellent reputation as a top notch destination for upland birds. It has excellent populations of pheasant and quail due to the vast expanse of suitable prairie and grassland type habitat.
