Professional Hunters
 

OK Im must admit I am new to this.
I have a widow friend that has nice land in a nice area with deer, duck, rabbit, turkey etc nice lodging. I am trying to get in touch with professional hunters in this area South Haven, MS. Any Ideas how I can do that, the internet is not of much help. Thanks ;)

RE: Professional Hunters
 

I don't really know what you mean by professional hunter? A guide? An outfitter? What exactly are you wanting to do with the property? Sell hunts? Lease the land? How big is the place?

Sorry to ask so many questions but your post was a little vague.

Maybe try putting up a flyer in a local feed store or outdoor store. Also might try placing an ad in a local paper for whatever it is you're looking for.

Widow...With benefits, nice!!!!:D

Exactamundo!

RE: Professional Hunters
 

Thank you for all the questions. I am not familiar with the hunting terms.

Leasing the land is what will work best for both my friend and the interested guide/hunter.

This allows the guide/hunter to create a business for himself, while allow my friend to rent the land and
have her nice lodging facility used creating her income.

I see it as a win win. What do you think?

RE: Professional Hunters
 

Your not making no sense??? You want to sell hunts off of it,and let people stay in the lodge? How many acres is it?

RE: Professional Hunters
 

You want to lease to a guide service that will coordinate hunts on your ground from what I am reading. You also want to offer lodging in that package. Google hunting guides in the area and talk direct to them.

RE: Professional Hunters
 

You need to make direct contact. How many acres is the place any idea??? If it's big enough I think you'll prolly be able to get someone to take you up on your offer.

What the hell did he just say?

Any chance of you giving up the widow friendsphone number?:D

RE: Professional Hunters
 

All due respect to you, and I'll spare you the childish antics of asking for your friends phone number.

What you need to do, or what should work, is listing the place as being available for hunting with your local chamber of commerce. That is usually a good place to start. Most rural area chambers of commerce will have a listing of local places to hunt.

You will need to list the amout of acres available, the type of lodge that is on it (log cabin, trailer etc) and you should probably get up to speed on your local hunting laws with concern to when the various hunting seasonsopen and close.

Be careful because there are a lot of "guides" who are give the rest of us bad names, just as in any business, there are a few whowill take advantage ofothers.

I am not very familiar with your particular area's rules and regulations but you are welcome to call me. I do consulting on these matters and will help you any way that I can, no charge.

Thank you for all the advice. I cannot give my friends phone number out, though she has allowed me to help get her business I need to respect her private details. Having said that I will follow up on your advice and search out the suggestions you gave. Our email is [email protected]
Pretty funny 2 women who know not much about hunting on this adventure lol. My husband has hunted.

If I do not reply within a day I will get there. Thanks for the offer to advise.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding in all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your path :)God Bless You

Hi Jake

The place is 100 acres with lots of deer, rabbits and turkey I am told. Thank you for your advice . What a beautiful psalm......
I will share that with my husband. I desire to seek and serve the LORD all the days of our lives.

God Bless You

RE: Professional Hunters
 

It's going to be tough to get much of an outfitter/guide service on only 100 acres. I would suggest trying to lease it for the calender year.

RE: Professional Hunters
 

I'm glad you were able to help out with good advice. It seems someone here always can. However, there is nothing wrong with a little joke on here. Notice the smiley face in my post. I love it when someone on here cracks a joke and someone like you can't handle it. That's some of the fun in coming on these sites.Helping someone out is great. Having fun is great. Calling people childish for cracking a little joke is childish. Now I'm being childish! LMAO:D

Good luck jnapper!!

RE: Professional Hunters
 

Yeah that guy up there really doesn't sound like toomuch fun...
