2011 Outlook

At Hemlock Hills Trophy Ranch LLC, we pride ourselves in the quality of our animals. We would rather book fewer hunts to better manage our herd than over hunt the ranch and negatively affect the quality of our animals in future years. We book hunts based ENTIRELY on the expected outlook and size of our herd. This is unlike most other game preserves who buy new stock based on their pre-booked hunts.

Red Deer:
We are projecting a very productive 2011 Red Deer season. We expect to have multiple 6x6, 7x7, and larger animals. This year we can accommodate hunts of stags up to around 400”. There should be a few hinds available for harvest. These would be available first to those booking hunts for other animals.

Elk:
We are projecting an excellent 2011 Elk season. We expect to have several animals available in the 330” – 380” range. Once again, price sensitive hunters can harvest a bull up to 300".  There will also be several trophies available that could top 400”.  We will be offering limited cow hunts in 2011.  For cow hunts, they would need to be booked by June 1, 2011.  If you are interested in a cow hunt, contact us ASAP and we will put your name on our waiting list pending the outcome of this springs calf births.

Whitetail:
Whitetail bucks will be open for limited hunting in 2011.  We have several mature bucks (several exceeding 150” and one 14 pointer this year) that would make prime trophies.  In addition we expect to offer a few hunts of 200" plus on a first-come-first-served basis.  Whitetail hunts must be pre-booked by June 1, 2011.  Since we are re-opening our whitetail hunts we need to have an accurate estimate of the number and size of animals to be harvested.
