NEWS
Pig Hunts are full board right now, Client Adam Messner is 2 for 2 on pig hunts this year with us. Here is what he had to say about it and his picture are below.
"I had high hopes for my pig hunt. I have been doing a lot of research regarding where to go, when to go and who to go with. If you check out the photos, you'll see I made the right decision. Jim Garcia is the most professional guide I have ever hunted with. He's a heck of a nice guy too. If you are considering hunting with a guide, hunting with Jim is a no-brainer. If you are considering hunting by yourself, you might want to rethink that - Jim knows Pigs!" - Adam Messner

REGULAR BIRD CARDS (PUNCH ON RETURN)-
With the Regular Membership, only the birds recovered are deducted from your card, except for when 80% of the birds from your card have been released or the first weekend in January. In either case, (80% or 1st weekend in January) all birds released are pre-punched.
We determine the number of birds released based on the 10% rule (i.e. standard plant). Each time, you make a reservation, we will release 10% of the number of birds purchased in a designated field. Ex: You purchase a 50 bird card, we release five (5) birds each time you come out. Under the Regular Membership, if only one out of five are recovered, one bird comes off your card. The other exception to the rule is if you request a custom plant.
Custom Plant
A custom plant is anything other than a standard plant and the number of birds requested (as a minimum) are deducted from your card, regardless of the number of birds recovered. *No custom plants after the first weekend in January.
All waterfowl hunts are fully guided by our professional, licensed waterfowl guides. Our properties are managed specifically for waterfowl hunting and are only hunted one or two days out of the week. We hunt ducks and geese from layout blinds and sunken steel blinds depending on what type of habitat the birds are using.
Our goal is to shoot ducks and geese at 20 yards or less! Our properties are scouted before the hunt to make sure the birds are there. Be sure to check out our Photo Gallery to see pictures of our recent hunts! After each hunt, you may enjoy a bbq at the clubhouse and have all of your waterfowl cleaned while you are enjoying lunch!
