I'm looking to take my 10 yr old son on a plantation-style deer hunt in Alabama sometime around New Year's. Was wondering if anyone had a good recommendation for a lodge that works hard at taking care of its young hunters. Any advice will be appreciated.
Bryan, I took my son to Dream Lake Lodge in Livingston last year and we had an absolute blast at a reasonable price. My son shot a 9 point and we loved it! Jeff Kelly runs the place and the lodge and food is super!!!
Is seeing a bunch of deer more important than killing a buck?
Want a nice lodge to relax in or just a place to sleep?
Want the place to yourselves or you okay with 10 other hunters in camp?
Looking to have a reasonable chance for the kids to kill a 110" -120" buck. Lodge would be nice, but not required. Number of hunters not important as long as we get taken care of.
A lot of the private schools and other organizations that are trying to make money have weekend hunts at very reasonable prices. A lot of the land is very lightly hunted other than these hunts also.
