Repost: Deer Hunting in SC 101.. Pls help
 

Greetings to all! This is my first post in this forum and hope you could help me:

I've just booked a flight for my 73 year old dad to visit his brother at South Carolina. It is their childhood dream to go deer hunting and finally they are not doing it come August 15.

Would just like to ask for recommendations on where I should book them for deer hunting.

any other suggestions or tips would be greatly appreciated!!

thanks in advance

You might try Cyperss Creek,

Are you wanting to just take them to public land or were you looking for an outfitter?

if you are looking for outfitter try bangs paradise valley ,island plantation ,bostic plantation .there quite a few in the low country of sc .there are not many in the upstate .now if looking for public theres tons of it but need to know where they are looking to hunt at here .

Cowdens Plantation....Owned by Kenny Jarrett of Jarrett Rifles. Great setup with a high rait of success....

Go to this site and search for specific outfitters...

Bostick Plantation is garbage! I've never been there and never will. There are more than a lot of really bad reviews about that place.

from what i have heard of blackwater is that are good place to go .give em a buzz .goodluck.:patriot:

Cypress Creek. I know the people that run it and have hog hunted there myself.1st class opperation. Great food, great people

SC Hunt
 

You wont do any better then Blackwater, I have hunted there several years and they run an A+ operation. Stay as far, far away from Bostick as possible, you have a better chance at bagging a deer by flushing your money down the toilet then "hunting" there. Good luck.

Buck & Boar is a good place also but it's high-fenced. I know some people are picky about that. And they're pretty pricey on their deer hunts. But it looks like they have some great deer and a great opportunity to bag a real trophy.

I actually hunt the property ajacent to Blackwater and there are some nice deer in that area I killed the one in my photo near there. Tons of deer there! That's for sure. We can't even keep any food plots down. The deer keep eating the young sprouts as soon as they are a few inches tall. Lots of ajacent farm lands around that area as well. Helps give those deer what they need to grow.

there are several guide services in the upstate but they are hard to find .upstate is not as popular as the lowcountry.

If your stuck with those dates, then you have to hunt the lowcountry. Their gun season opens August 15th, where ours in the upstate does not open until Oct. 11th (Sept. 15th for archery).

X4 or 5...or however many, on staying away from Bostic. That place has taken a nose dive since I hunted there 10 years ago. Nothing but bad reviews now.

I have hog hunted with Cypress Creek. I would give them an 'A' rating.

Good luck

give Rick @ Waccamaw Hunting Services a call deer he will put you on the deer, been hunting with him for 4 years and have no complaints good honest hard working guy has some real good hunting to boot!
