HUNT RESERVATION FORM

"Pay $3000 to $5000 for a Canadian whitetail hunt if you wish. My money is staying in Illinois where the chance of success is in your favor. ...... And in western Illinois, the locals are friendlier and you'll forego the arrogance of Canadian customs." - Les Davenport, "Illinois' Unofficial' B&C's," Illinois Game & Fish, August, 1995.

Come hunt with us on some of the best bowhunting land in Pike County, with lots of good deer and many Pope & Young class Trophy Bucks!

You (hunter) must also agree to the following rules while hunting with Pikeland Outfitters. Any rule that is not followed will mean immediate cancellation of your hunt with no refund.

Hunter must stay in the treestand, ground blind, or other location that the Pikeland Outfitter guide places you in. Hunter must not leave this immediate area.

As part of the management plan developed by Rack Buck Deer Management, Inc., Hunter must only shoot at bucks with at least a 16" outside spread and at least 8 points, or does. Any buck not meeting this criteria will result in the Hunter paying an additional $400 fine.

Hunter is also encouraged to shoot at least one doe while hunting.   Everyone thatdeer99woods1.jpg (37422 bytes) shoots a doe enters a drawing for a FREE late-season hunt the following year.  Details are posted in the lodge.  In an effort to improve our management efforts, Hunter will pay a $25 fine for shooting button bucks.
