NOTICE:These rules are not meant to be offensive
to anyone. They are made and enforced to give our customers the
absolute best chance of harvesting a mature whitetail. We thank
all of our customers for following them.
Any
deer shot must be reported to Mark and or your guide before
you look for or track the deer. One of us will help you track
it and your picture will be taken for our photo album.
We
only harvest bucks scoring 130 Pope & Young or larger “a
mature buck”. Absolutely no shooting any buck
smaller than 8 points, 16 inch inside spread.
There
is a $1000 fee for deer shot below these requirements. All
fees will be doubled if a deer is shot below these requirements
on the last day of your hunt. Our goal is not to collect
any "fee" money,
but if we do it goes towards our food plot program to enhance
antler growth.
There
is a $1000 fine for button bucks harvested.
A
safety belt or harness must be worn entire time while hunting
out of a tree stand. If you are ever caught without one on
your hunt will be finished. Safety in our #1 concern.
Feeding
is prohibited including any grains, salt blocks, or mineral
blocks.
Please take everything off the property that you took on
it, including any food items and litter.
Alcoholic
beverages are prohibited in the hunting area and you may not
hunt if any alcohol has been consumed.

You must be "scent free" when entering the hunting
area. Scent elimination products are required to be worn
to help reduce human scent.
Daily

Scent
suits are highly recommended Be
sure to check tree steps, climbing sticks, and ladders for
stability before climbing up to your stand.
