Hi All. Working on my bucket list......and I am trying to find a guided whitetail hunt for my wife and I. (She has also brought up taking our teenage sons). That in itself brings up some potential budget issues.......so it may just be the two of us after all :-)

I'm looking at Midwest states.....possibly Kentucky. Shes is not as comfortable with a bow as I am......and we are likely looking for a rifle hunt.

SOOO many guides.......so much information online......it's hard to wade through it all sometimes, so I wanted to get referrals from people here who may have had a wonderful experience with a guide or outfitter to share. I got burned on a trip to Canada a number of years ago, and not wanting to repeat. (guide was so drunk he couldn't walk by 7 am).

3 hip surgeries ago, i would have tried to do a public land DIY hunt......just not in a position to scout, hang stands etc.......so I am weighing different options.

Any help or suggestions are MORE than appreciated......
