Satisfied LadyWoods Customers
The place is great! And the people are awesome. I've been here a hand full of times and plan on being back many more times!
It was my first time upland hunting and we had a great time - the people there are very nice and made sure we had a good afternoon. We got 8/10 of our paid for birds (one was running and try as she might the dog just couldn't flush it) and spent a good amount of time trying to get a shot at some of the escaped pheasants but they were flushing well before we were in range in the woods. Very pleased and would recommend them to anyone out there who is interested.
5 Stars!
I have hunted there at least once a year for the past 5 years. I've always had a great time there, they are very nice, great dogs, overall good time. Most times I go, I get all the birds I paid for or very close to it. The shots are very close, I've never used anything more than an IC choke with 6 or 7 shot 2 3/4. They have pheasant and chukkar.
