to groups of up to 16 hunters.

December Draw Dates and re-booking:
This year we are offering a 6-day hunt for 2 hunters from
December 16-22, a 3-day hunt for 2 from December 16-19, and
another 3-day hunt for 2 from December 19-22. These
hunts will be put in the draw every year. You may enter
your name on each of the hunts if you wish. All of the
other December dates are offered to last year hunters, first,
providing they call me to reserve by Saturday, April 3 at 8 AM.
At 8AM on April 3 all unreserved dates are available. If
you hunted last year and want the same DATES but want to add
days or hunters you will have to make those changes on 4-3-2010.
Assignment of pastures:
We have had some complaints from hunters that
"favoritism" is going on and we are saving pastures for certain
hunters. This is not the case.
If a hunter get the same pasture as the previous year it is
coincidental. All of the pastures are assigned
before check-in and in most cases hunters are given the choice
of open pastures. All of the areas have excellent hunting
and when we are booked (16 hunters) each hunter has an average
of 300 acres to themselves. We place hunters in a pasture
according to group size and the placement is controlled by the
hunting manager. We have 7 pastures and they range in size from
250-1619 acres. Once you are assigned a location you cannot jump
to a different location without permission from the hunting
manager.
