Other Personal Experience: Paul is very pleasant and a go
Overall Impression: Wonderful
Recommend: Yes without hesitation
Reviewer Comments: I let Paul and Don know upfront that I was looking for a Silver class Axis deer. Don made sure that I had opportunities for an Axis in that range. We saw several lesser and greater ones, including one absolutely magnificent one, as well as a lot of other species. It didn't take long to get what I came for. Because I wanted to extend my hunt I asked if I could hunt the outback that evening. Paul and Don not only agreed, but Don volunteered to help me find a very nice Fallow buck. I am already planning my next trip

Reviewer Comments: I have been to several ranches in Texas, and none compare to NTO. This was my second trip, and they have the best quality of animals, the best guide, and by far the best food of any ranch I have ever been on. This time I shot a 23.5" Blackbuck, last time a 32 inch Axis deer. My two hunting buddies shot 8 animals out of the "Outback" including a couple of whopper hogs. Give this place a try, you won't be dissappointed.

Reviewer Comments: Just got back from North Texas Outfitters and had an excellent hunt! I was bow hunting and shot a nice coriscan ram, and my buddie shot a nice texas dall. We also got a russian boar that weighed about 200 pounds. We have an awesome time and saw several different types of animals. I can't wait to go back again!

Reviewer Comments: I can't say enough good things about this hunt. Our guide (Don Wade)is the best.... The meals we're better then at home. (real mash potatos) The quality and selection of the game was excellent. The hunt is what you make it. Don & Paul we're there to help you. There was no pressure to just shoot trophys. Great Bow hunting and could see where black powder and gun could be a good time. Feel free to call or email for details & and more info I'd love to tell you about the huge buffalo I shoot. Oh ya, great hogs.

Reviewer Comments: A great overall experance! Six of us went ranging in age from 5 to 63. We were all given special treatment and made to feel like one big family. The guides, Don Wade and Brian, were exceptional. The meals---3 a day with access to what ever we wanted---were great. NTO offers two types of hunts, an econy hunt and a hunt for truly trophy animals in two different areas of the ranch---we started on the econy hunt and at no time were we ever pressured or even felt pressured to upgrade our hunt (this ment a lot to me and my friends, NTO was there to help us have a good experance and they did). Two members of our party upgraded their hunts and we took a nice red stag with a rifle and a trophy buffalo(bision) with a crossbow.Guide Don Wade is a hunters hunter, a grand-paw(even though he doesn't look it) and a people person, between him, Brian and Paul we never wanted for anything. A truly enjoyable experance. Just let them know what you want and I belive they would do anything to try and make it happen, if you don't know just show up and they will help you figure it out.

There is no legal requirement for non-resident waterfowl hunters to use a guide, but many are available and a high percentage of non-Canadian hunters utilize them. In addition black bear, Canada moose and whitetails are hunted throughout the province.
