Not a ton of outfitters in Wisconsin, but most of the ones we have are in Buffalo County. I am sure if you search "buffalo county" on here you will get plenty of info on most of them. As for Illinois, search illinois outfitter and you will have more info than you can probably get through. I feel like I looked at every IL outfitter that has a website (probably missed some, but did a ton of research) and it really comes down to exactly what you are looking for and more importantly what you want to pay. I am going with Swain Farms this year, never read anything bad about them. Went with Bucks-R-Us last year, and although cheap, I would not go back.

Any specifics on what you want in the hunt and what you are willing to pay?

Head over to bowsite and check out the outfitter reviews as well.

 

Thanks so much for the response!
I am looking for a outfitter with a nice lodge don't have to see a lot of deer but good quality deer want to pay somewhere around three thousand or less prefer less!! Lol bow of course first week of November

 

Eagle lakes outfitters in pine county Illinois. Fourth year in a row for me this November and love it. Check it out, so far im 3/3, but thats not what makes the hunt. Ive become friends with everyone out there. Top notch in my book.

 

Thanks I will for sure check them out!!

 

This is a proven outfitter http://fulldrawhunts.com/.

 

this place he has some openings and is one great guy

 

There's a lot of good ones in Buffalo County, WI. Off the top of my head I can think of Bluff Bucks Outfitters, Buffalo County Outfitters, Bluff Country Outfitters, and Schuhter's Outpost. Tom Indrebo (owner of Bluff Country) was one of the first to practice QDM in the area and is one of the most knowledgeable people in the industry. He has a book and a couple of videos out there. Schuhter's Outpost is a pretty new outfit but they've shot some monsters and there's many more on their properties (the lodge neighbors my grandparents' farm, where I hunt) and Mark is a great guy. Bluff Bucks has hosted a number of outdoor celebrities - I know Lee and Tiffany were there a couple years ago.
Hope that helps.

 

Check out Bluff Country in Buffalo County Wisconsin. Tom Indrebo runs a top notch business. You wont be disappointed, they have some giant deer. bluffcountryoutfitters.com PM if you would like anymore details on WI

 

Whats that outfitter in Ill. that gets alot of publicity on here?

:toothy2:

 

i went with xtreme-hunts and had an awesome hunt. saw TONS of deer. guide worked his butt off for me too. i am going back this october

 

You wouldn't be talking about Hadley?... :wink:

 

Lets keep Hadley out of this discussion, it only goes down hill fast when that name starts getting slung around. So far he has got good, honest feedback which is what he wanted.

 

I am willing to bet this place can fit your needs. www.bluffcountryoutfitters.com/ If you have the will to wait, I bet you can kill a great buck.

 

Thanks guys checking all these out some very nice places!

Hadley Creek......:behindsof

 

I`ve always thought that Swain Farms (a sponsor on here) looked like a good place to hunt.

 

Illinois Connection

 

There are plenty of quality outfitters all over the midwest. I dont get on here often, but when I do i track info on our operation. I have worked at Hadley Creek for 8 years, and proud to say that I do so. We pride ourselves in the way we run our operation, and the customer service that we provide our clients. Im not on here to bash other outfitters nor do I want to read a bunch of negative stuff about our operation. BP1992, I invite you to give me a call at the office to tell me why you have such a negative attitude towards us. 217-335-3804. I dont mind critisism, but explain why. KYhunter5569, i also invite you to call our office so that I can give you insite as to why we are a successful outfit, and why we have such a large and faithfull client base.

 

I would guess the negativity comes from doing a quick search for Hadley on this site....Not real good results.

 

I hunted with Brandon Swain at Swain farms last season and had a great hunt tagged a very nice buck on first sit, his hunt was everything he said it would be and I could not have been more pleased.

Give Fox Creek Outfitters a good look - run by an honest family, good ground and no pressure will give you a really good chance at a good buck. good luck on your hunt!

 

x2 on Fox Creek. Good folks that put in a lot of effort. Have done several successful non guided hunts with them.

 

Schuhter's Outpost is where i hear alot of talk about lately and a couple friends hunted there last year and said Marc (owner) was above and beyond what they expected. Nice deer from nice operation? That doesnt seem real in this indusrty anymore, does it? Upon my friends thoughts i would think twice about booking a hunt with this guy at all, and my friends are whiney hunters......ill admit it i hate hunting with them at times HA
