Hunter Comments

Mr. Bell may be a nice guy and I believe he does want you to kill a mature deer, but the hunt overall was very dissappointing. Bell claims he had 100 stands to hunt from and I was allowed to hunt 3 of them! It didn't matter the wind. Trail cameras over each corn pile. Pictures clearly showed that most the activity was after dark espically the big bucks. I hunted for 5 days and saw 3 deer. Also claimed to have 20,000 acres to hunt from. Maybe true but he only showed me a farm that was maybe 40 acres. Stand quality and location was poor. One stand didn't have a bow rope or holder and another squeaked with any shifting of your weight. My expectation going into the hunt was not to kill a trophy, but I did expect to see more deer than 3 and I thought I would have been able to be more mobile. I was pretty disappointed.

Was the outfitter notified of problems? - YES

Outfitter's Response

I can understand Joey's disapointment not seeing many deer as this season was slow for daytime movement of deer. I do not find it necessary to defend our business and will be happy to provide reference's from client's that hunted with us this season and are returning to hunt with us next year.
