T/C offers bow hunts to the public on the best piece of deer property I have ever hunted. It is 12000 acres in west KY, and that is the biggest single private landholding in the state. I was on a gun hunt as a guest, and passed up a bunch of 130-140 eight & 9 pointers the last night, I hit a big 150ish deer a little back. We trailed him a while in the dark and it began to rain and didn't quit for 2 days. We looked all over the creek bottom, but it was fruitless. My fault. They take an unbelievable amount of good deer with bow and have over a 90% shooting opportunity and a 66% kill. That is just unreal in my eyes for a free range bow operation with deer of this caliber. I listed the number to T/C, if you can't get in touch with the right person there, call or e-mail me, and I will hook you up with Gregg Ritz or the camp manager.
