Frequently Asked Questions
- How long have you been in business?
We purchased this property in December of 1992. we opened the Hunting
Preserve shortly thereafter in 1993.So we have been here for 15
years
- How many acres do you have? We own and lease about 600 acres
here. Part of our property is not fenced ,and we hunt native
whitetail and eastern turkey on this part of our property. Most
of our property is fenced with New Zealand deer fence and this
is where we hunt on the preserve and keep our breeding stock.
Most everything we hunt here, we have male and female of the
species and we let them breed and propagate here. Many of the
animals we hunt here, were born here and have lived their whole
lives here. The terrain here is very rough and we offer many
different possible hunting situations. You will feel proud that
your trophy has been well earned.
- Do you have Russian boars there? We have Pure European wild
boar here. Our breeding stock came from Manitoba Canada about 10
years ago. A Russian boar usually refers to an animal that is a
cross between a pure European Wild Boar and a feral hog. A feral
hog is what we have running wild in the southern half of the
United States, and its basically a domestic hog gone wild. So
actually we have one step better than what is called a Russian
boar, Although many people would call what we have a Russian
Boar because it is much better than what most hunting preserves
offer , which are feral hogs (domestic hogs gone wild).
- What is the difference between a Pure European wild boar and
a feral hog or a Russian Boar? A pure European Wild boar has
longer ,thicker hair and has more hair on his hackles. He has a
long straight tail and not a curly tail. True Wild boar are not
all black. True wild boar are a dark color with silver , red or
brown brindled in their hair.
- What type of weapon are you allowed to use? You can use any
type of bow, Rifle , blackpowder, shotgun, or pistol.
- Do you have a butcher service available? We do have a
butcher service available to cut package and wrap your meat. If
you use our butcher service, you will have to come back and get
your meat. Any good butcher will tell you that the carcass of
any animal that you are going to butcher needs to hang for a few
days before it is cut up. These preserves that offer to butcher
your animal that you have harvested the same day or that night , are doing you a disservice. Any animal harvested should hang for a few days before it is butchered. We will field dress. skin and or
Quarter your animal at NO EXTRA CHARGE, for you to take home to
a butcher near where you live, so that after it hangs like it
should and your butcher gets it cut, packaged and wrapped, its
right there close to home for you to pick up
