Nothing against the company. But, I would never do it again. My problems with it are pobably just the nature of a stocked hunt with farm raised birds.
My dad was in town and wanted to hunt. Usually its cold and involves a long drive. This time it was only 15 minutes from my house to the hunt. It was over 75 degrees. The birds were small. We literally chased some birds on the ground and kicked at them to get them to fly. It felt wrong doing a stocked hunt. I paid for 12 birds. We saw 14 or 15 birds. I shot and killed every bird that was in range. The dogs unfortunately flushed some of the birds when they were way too far away from us.
to add to the above. I want to be honest with you guys. Even though I hate to say anything bad about the company in this case.
I scheduled a morning hunt for a reason. We knew it might be hot and we wanted to get an early start. They were about 45 minutes late getting to the range. By the time we got to the hunting spot a couple miles down the road it was over an hour later than I scheduled. First I hate when people cant be on time. It is one of my biggest pet peeves. Second, because we started over an hour later, it got hot real quick. The dogs couldnt work in the heat. The guide who we payed for, his dogs werent that great at their jobs. He was a really nice guy, and he was on time. I would probably still use him again. (great guns did take $24 off the hunt, but I would rather have paid full price and had them be on time) the late start meant we only hunted for 3 hours, when we paid for 4 hours because the dogs were completely wasted in the heat.
