Missouri Whitetail hunting is often considered a sleeper state by the thousands of people who hunt it every year.
There are new antler restrictions implemented in 2008 that are quickly going to make Missouri even better. We have secured the best possible hunting ground in these areas for long enough lengths of time to be able to manage our deer herds. When you combine this type of management, as well as our hundreds of acres of food plots, and being located in the number one whitetail state in the country, it makes for the best hunting you will find anywhere.
Missouri has long been known to have produced some excellent trophy Whitetails and the popularity is rapidly growing. Preference Points are not required for Missouri. You can purchase the MO Deer Hunting Tags over the counter.
We are located in the South East part of the state where you will find some true giant deer. A great deal of the biggest names in whitetail hunting have hunted right here in our area.
If you are waiting to accumulate enough preference points in Iowa and would still like to hunt this region, Missouri is the place. We offer 10% off our Missouri Whitetail hunts to the hunter who has put a deposit down and waiting to draw an Iowa tag. (Deposit for Iowa hunt must be paid prior to booking Missouri hunt.)
For Breakfast we have Cereal, hot or cold with toast, bagels and some fruit. Juices and milk
Lunches are a bag lunch such as sandwiches, cookies or a snack, chips and a drink
Supper is always a good hot home cooked meal that is second to none with plenty to eat for everyone.
All Missouri hunts are semi-guided and pricing includes meals, lodging, pre-hung stands/blinds, transportation to and from stand, and field care/dressing of your animal.
We hunt on over 3500 acres of the mixed hardwood hills and cropland located in Northern Missouri. We have hundreds of acres of food plots strategically place to hunt over and offer our deer year round nutrition so they can be to their fullest potential by the time the antlers quit growing. Missouri tags are over the counter so the draw is not an issue and you can hunt when you like.
Many of our hunters enjoy the excellent hunting that Missouri offers while waiting to draw an Iowa tag.
Our daily routine on the semi-guided hunts begins with a light breakfast of cereal, toast, bagels, etc. and packing of your lunch for the day. We then take off for the stand/blind arriving 30-60 minutes prior to shooting light. We strongly encourage our hunters to stay in stand all day and will do our best to make you as comfortable as possible to help with the task of sitting all day. If you do want to come out for a break, we will set a pre-arraigned time to come pick you up for a mid-day break. Once the hunt is over for the day, we will serve a terrific home cooked meal upon arrival back to the lodge. The mid-day action is a bit slower during the late muzzleloader hunts, and hunters often sit for a few hours in the morning and go back out early afternoon for the evening hunt. We have two different taxidermists who we strongly recommend as well as a meat locker close by.
The whitetail hunting in any state can be challenging but to most whitetail hunters the end results that are possible while hunting with us are worth the wait. We have a minimum score that we like to maintain which is SCI or B&C 130 in Missouri.
There is a great chance to see the buck of a lifetime in both Iowa and Missouri.
Our Missouri Archery hunts present a great opportunity to harvest a 140 class buck or bigger.
The rut hunt in Missouri is an over the counter tag and is a rifle hunt. This hunt is in Mid November. We also offer Missouri Bow Hunting for Whitetail Deer. Early Bowhunting in September and late Whitetail Bowhunting in December
Whitetail hunting in Iowa runs from Mid October thru January with a mixture of shotgun and archery hunts. The archery season is during the rut hunt in November. Missouri Whitetail hunts run from September thru January and the rut hunt is a rifle hunt
The best turkey hunting is in April thru the middle of May with some great Tom’s being taken all through the season
Turkey hunting in the spring can be very warm but it can also be very cool that time of year. You will need to bring along some warm clothing as well as your rain gear, you just never know.
Deer hunting will require warm and cold clothing as well. Rain gear may be needed in the early season and warmer clothes later in the year. We do have heated huts in the shotgun/muzzle loader hunts but you will still need to be prepared for some very chilly weather
