|
You cannot go wrong with Adobe Lodge. This is my second year hunting there. I did not "take their advice" last year. They said to "wait" as there were many good bucks. I harvested an ok eight point, but saw many larger later in the hunt. This year, I looked and waited. The result was worth it. Every hunter in the camp (8) got a good buck, including another good 10 point and a very unusual 21 point non-typical.
