• "Big Whitetails are unlike other deer, they are extremely reclusive and in most cases a Ghost in the woods. It takes a different strategy to hunt them. While I certainly can't guarantee you will take a trophy buck with me I can guarantee I will do everything I can to get you on a nice buck. Many of my hunters have taken the biggest deer of their life with me and that always puts a big smile on everyone's face!" Bob Parker
