Reviewer Comments: Wow, awesome! There was game everywhere, including some GREAT elk and exotics. Great accomodations, food, and personel. I'm partially disabled and the personel went the extra mile to make sure I had a fun and successful hunt. I could have ended my hunt the first night with really nice animals, but held out because I wanted to hunt more. I saw many bigger animals but chose to harvest a very unique 130 class half typical and half non-typical buck and a huge boar.

Reviewer Comments: Went weekend of July 12.What a hunt.The place is very green,it was hot,and the animals were wild and elusive.We hunted for a 40"+ Gemsbok for 2 days.Got a shot at 8:45 p.m. at 250 yds. and missed.On the 3rd day we saw the top horn of a huge Fallow sticking out of a 4ft. high grass field at about 400 yds.Stalked to within 50 yds. but he spooked and ran off without a shot.Went in for lunch and went back out.Saw the Fallow standing under a tree and got a 120 yd. shot.Shot and connected on a monster 23 pt. Fallow that was the biggest I've ever seen.Weighed 225 lbs. and will score very high in the record book.This was a very hard but rewarding hunt.You will never go on a better hunt or hunt with a better guide than Chris McDaniel.Also saw a Whitetail on this trip that would score 180+.I would recommend this hunt to real hunters that want to bag a true trophy Whitetail or exotic.

Kansas Hunting Information
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.
New Mexico Hunting Information
New Mexico is one of the top destinations for trophy Elk and Antelope hunting. Draw odds can be tough depending on the unit but landowner tags are also available for those who don't draw. Mule Deer are plentiful but generally of average size. Only a couple of units and reservations consistently produce big muleys.
Illinois Hunting Information
Illinois is widely known as a top trophy whitetail destination. Illinois also has some great waterfowl hunting, especially in southern portions of the state.
