Hunter Comments
I recommend this outfitter

Josh runs a GREAT OPERATION at Monster Whitetail Outfitters. His farms are in the heart of "Antler Alley" in Putnam County, Northern Missouri and SE Iowa. My Buddy Paul and I hunted Missouri farm Nov 7th-11th, 2020. We saw multiple Shooter Bucks every day! 130"+ P&Y!! My buddy Paul Harvested a 147" Trophy 9 Pointer. I had 2-opportunities at a 150+ Class 10-Pointer that I could not close the deal on with my compound. This part of Northern Missouri is Beautiful Perfect Deer Habitat, Big Rolling Hardwood ridges, thick bedding cover, lots of creek bottoms and ditches created cool fingers, travel corridors, funnels for deer to travel into hay and corn fields in this bottoms. The Millennium treestands Josh uses are comfortable, every stand has a lifeline, Josh is a Big Proponent of safety first. The Guides Kaleb, Colton, Doug, and Hunter, are great people to share camp with and entertaining. They are Johnny on the spot, getting you out early on stand with UTVs and picking you up at Dark. My Buddy Paul and I never seen so much Buck Rutting Behavior; chasing does, grunting, snort wheeze, scraping it was a "Rutting Rampage" , from my 5-day hunt I would guess the Doe to Buck ratio was 2 to 1. Calling worked great; grunt, doe bleat, snort wheeze, and rattling bag. I watched a 140-class white racked 9-pointer tend a doe, came by me 3-times chasing a doe, just not close enough where I was comfortable with the shot. Watched 9-Pointer Bristle up and display in food plot, then lock Antlers with a smaller 8-pointer, would not let any of the smaller bucks get with 20-30 yards of the Doe. We both saw multiple different bucks 6-7 a day and 12+ does each. The guys in camp hunting SE Iowa, some were seeing 15+ Bucks a day, and passing 150" class Bucks, to hold out for the 170"+ Booners they have a cell trail cams. A Younger Hunter in camp Rattled in an Iowa Mid-160's Giant, within 20-yards, for easy Bow Shot. I may not have taken a Big Buck Home, but the hunting experience was rewarding, I had 2-opportunities at the Biggest Buck of my hunting career that is all you can ask for from your Guide. I will definitely be going back to hunt with Monster Whitetail Outfitters again with Josh's Team!!!
