The over all experience was different than normal hunting trips. I am used to hunting atmosphere and more days of hunting. It was more like a bed and breakfast. The house was beautiful but over the top because it didn’t give you the hunting lodge rustic feel we were used to. The food was excellent but didn’t need to be as formal.
Lodge and hospitality was first class! Miss Terry can COOK! Hunt was good and would have better had if the weather had cooperated! I’ll be back! The phesant hunting was GREAT! The ducks and geese were everywhere, but we needed the nasty weather! Guides were all top shelf! Andy and Neil were phenomenal and so were Jack and Boone (dogs)!
As far as the hunt. Three day was not enough. You just started learning the land and the deer habits and it was over. Not only that you had three days of hunting but when you returned to the house on your final night you found all of your close taken from the house, put in the garage, and your hunting gear pushed aside to make room for the next hunters. So the next hunters excited and standing by you asking how your hunting was while you stripped down, having to dress in front of them, and frustrated because your personal stuff and hunting gear had been placed in the middle of the floor. More on the hunting I am a very experienced hunter. I didn’t agree with a lot of what the owner was saying to our group for hunting tactics. The stands were not in the best spots. The stands were not brushed out properly which lowered your odds immensely. Some of the stands squeaked and moved when switching positions. The deer population was great which should have made for a better success rate. But too many things were against the hunter on this hunt
