Frequently Asked Questions

• How do you determine stand assignments? - Stands are picked from the most recent activity in the areas and best wind directions by the guides, the best stand sites are then put into a hat, one for each hunter in camp, then the hunters will draw their stand assignments from the hat. No Favoritism Here!

• How long do the hunters stay on that stand site? As long as the wind allows a hunter can keep their stand site as long as they wish. If they give their stand site up, it immediately becomes available to another Hunter. It is recommended to stay at least 2 days on your stand site before moving if the wind direction allows.

• Can we bring our own stands? Yes, you may bring your stand but you will have to place it in the area that we want you to hunt in. We understand that some stands are more comfortable than others so this is why that’s allowed. If you move from your assigned area your hunt will be over, no excuses.

• What Type of Stands do you have? We use mostly Ladder stands and Pop Up Blinds, we do have some box blinds also.

• How far is the walk to the stands? It differs depending on the farm and stand site you are hunting, in some cases, we are able to take you all the way to the stand, at other times if the weather is bad you may have to walk farther than normal. We will get you as close as possible in all cases.

• How do I know a deer is big enough to make your min of 130? You will Know. If you have to wonder then it’s probably not big enough. We will show you lots of trail cam pics of what’s big enough and what’s not before you start hunting.

• How Far is your shot opportunities? In most cases, our feeders and bait piles will be between 20 and 40 yards for bow, but there will be deer seen farther than that. We do not recommend a bow or crossbow shot Farther than 50 yards.

• What is your success Rate? The success rate has absolutely nothing to do with an outfitter, as an outfitter all we can do is get you in range of a shooter buck, the rest is up to you. We measure our success on Opportunity. We typically run 75 to 80% opportunity for a shot on a shooter buck within Range. These are 100% wild deer and we cannot guarantee success.

• How Much Land Do you have? We currently have access to over 2000 private acres in Ohio.

• What should I bring? All your personal items, hunting gear, as well as bed linens for a twin-size bed or sleeping bag and towels.

• Can I get A Refund on my deposit? Typically deposits are Not Refundable or Transferrable although they may be honored at another time at the discretion of management depending on the circumstances. This is 100% at managements discretion.
