Tremendous Whitetail Outfitter
Our hunt was excellent in all regards. My son and I both had multiple shot opportunities and bucks each time one stand. The first morning my son passed on a 125 in 8 pt and I passed on similar deer the second day. That morning I had 9 different bucks in bow range. My son stayed after a 158 in non typical he saw on the first evening and saw it several more times before taking it the final morning. On the next to last morning I took a 140 in old buck weighing an honest 250 lb +. Saw 6 other bucks, with 2 other shooters that morning although all were not within bow range. Accomodactions are very good in a comfortable lodge (nothing fancy) with a very nice "lounge"/dining room. Meals were excellent and all you can eat. Jeff Rader and his staff go out of their way to make sure you have a great hunt and that all of your needs are met. This is a very highly recommended trophy whitetail hunt at a very reasonable price. Although we did not hunt them, Jeff's areas are infested with turkeys. We literally saw hundreds of turkeys. The only downside being when they got fired up in the morning that made so much noise you could not hear deer approaching.
