Hunting Tactics & Planning Service

This service helps hunters or landowners develop a strategy for their hunting season by analyzing many factors before they hunt to minimize wasted time and maximize harvest opportunities.

I show you how I develop a strategy to hunt a property throughout the year. I will also show you how I use scouting, observation, weather, and habitat features to determine where and when I will hunt throughout the year.

What my process looks like:

  1. I start with a phone call to get acquainted with you and hear about your hunting experiences to determine how I can best help you. 

  2. During our phone call, I ask you to share the property's location so we can look at a digital map of the property you are hunting. You can share the area with me via OnX and then we can use Google Meet to discuss the property on a video chat. 

  3. Next, we schedule a time to walk your property in person so I can understand the habitat, your current hunting strategies, and how deer are using the property.

  4. After I assess the property and take notes, I will have a second call or visit with you to review key stand locations on your digital map. I will discuss where, when, and how I would recommend hunting those spots. I also share all the documents and tools I use to plan my hunts.

Pricing

Here’s some other info we’'ll cover

  • How to use scouting information, observational information, and aerial maps to develop a hunting plan.

  • How to factor weather and wind forecasts into your decision-making process.

  • How to plan which stands to hunt in the mornings or evenings based on the season you are hunting.

  • Understanding hunting pressure on the property you’re hunting and how deer react to this pressure.

  • Understanding seasonal hunting challenges and habitat changes and how to plan for them (Early Season, PreRut, RUT, Late Season)

  • Habitat features worth taking into consideration when planning your hunts. This includes bedding areas, travel areas, and food sources.

Important Notes

  • Anytime I review aerial maps, I use OnX maps. You will need to have this app downloaded before our conversation so I can share pins, information, and findings with you. OnX’s subscription fee is roughly $34 per year. I highly recommend this app because it is extremely valuable for mapping, seeing boundaries, notetaking, and remembering information.

  • This service is not just for landowners, it’s also for hunters who are looking for better results.
