If they can charge that much for a whitetail hunt and people pay it, good for them. I personally would not pay that much for a whitetail hunt, but some people are willing to pay it. Good for McMillan for building a quality business that is able to charge those higher prices and sellout every year.:thumbs_up:thumbs_up

What struck me as odd was on one of the recent reruns he had a client that couldn't get a shot on a really nice buck at first light one morning. So what does Tom do? Makes a move on and kills this same buck while the client is still there. I would've been asking for a refund on the spot.

I was in camp for that... I helped him rig up his bow with the camera via zip ties.

Footage was a little dark and grainy on mine. It was pretty neat to see the lighted nock going into him though. I have since retired from being filmed... and have 6k more a year to spend on corn, crossbows, and ozonics units!... :wink:

$6k buys a lot of new UA gear

Oh no he didnt!!

Only $6000.00 and that doesn't include license/tag. What has this sport come too??????????????????????????????? It's too bad the average joe will never get to do a hunt like that, it makes me sick that hunting(a tradition) has come to "Big Business" and a "Rich mans sport".

That aint real hunting [emoji6]

If a seller and buyer agree on the price of a hunt, who cares. Yes some people can afford any amount to hunt.
I personally try to avoid places where celebrities hunt because I believe they will be getting the best stands and treatment and the non famous hunters will get left overs.
I have had some out fitters tell me the so and so celebrity hunter was here or is booked here. When that happens, I tell them I am not interested.

 

[palmatedbuck04]

Only TV host i would hunt with

I have to recant this statement.watched his show this weekend every hunter was sitting on a baitpile,not my idea of hunting,and surely not paying $6000 to stakeout a pile of corn.

 

[horsehands]

How about a trophy squirrel hunt for half that price? Either sex and lodging included. Fair chase and no bait.

 

[Dafis]

Haha folks look up the haschknife ranch

I looked that up years ago when Primos hunted/leased it, it was expensive back then

They, Bone Collector, have hunted the Hooray Ranch the last couple years, it starts at $10K for a 5 day hunt

 

[NYyotekiller]

Total craziness what some of these guys are paying for hunts. Even crazier that some guys pay that to sit over a bait pile.

I’m pretty sure Waddell bought a bunch of land next to McMillan. I think he sold it for something crazy like $1.3 or $1.6M.

I personally put “celeb” clients behind my paying clients, though I tried to put all of them on deer!

Wonder how many don't kill anything on those $6k-$8k hunts and get the" better luck next time " speech??

I think these prices are ran through the roof due to all the celebrities. I wanted to fulfill a Big Horn hunt that was my grandfathers dream up until the day he passed away. This year was the first time in a very long time that i had priced the hunt. The lowest i found was 55,000 and a 10,000 harvest fee once you harvested the animal. Now maybe it was just the select few places that i looked at but i couldn't believe how much of a rich mans sport this has become. Like i said i think its because of all these hunting shows.
