Kentucky deer hunting for aged mature whitetails with
consistent results is all about Odds. "Odds" at seeing and
killing mature bucks are created and increased by the outfitters
annual hunt plan.
An outfitters hunt plan should and must be completely and
thoroughly displayed through out the outfitters website. A
running multiple year history (very important) of a solidly
thought out hunt plan , documented via website pictures and
descriptions is critical.
You will give yourself
much greater odds at the desired goal of killing big bucks to
chose an outfitter that vividly displays his outfitting hunt
culture. Odds at killing mature whitetails can and should be
manipulated - scout snipecreeklodge.com website and you will see
many tactics that are consistently used to create the greatest
odds at seeing and killing mature Ky whitetails.
Additionally to have the greatest "odds" its a must to hunt
locations that contain big deer in big numbers.You will be
hunting a very high density of aged mature bucks in
Snipe
Creeks hunt zone. The buck to doe balance is a free range 1 to 1
ratio , creating and offering explosive rut action that is
difficult to duplicate or even to imagine. The hunt zone of
Snipe Creek is exclusively conducted in the vast
Kentucky Lake river bottoms and all 120 deer stands
are 15 minutes and less from your last sip of coffee.
Hunt camp experience and camaraderie are an ingrained element of
our hunt culture. The camp fire, skinning shed and good food
are always the center piece after the hunt.
Snipe
Creek , is serious about game management and hunt style,
which results in game manipulation , which greatly alters the
odds in favor of the hunter at having a successful Kentucky
trophy deer hunt. Created is the perfect habitat for promoting
productive deer life and a dedicated 12 month hunt plan based on
experience which together equates to greatly increased odds of a
successful hunting experience for you.
Expect to be
impressed! Through this extremely detailed website we show
and prove all that is said to any one that takes the time to
thoroughly scout this web site.
I am Carl Doron ,
owner and take the marketing strategy of promoting
Kentucky deer hunts at Snipe Creek by showing and conveying ,
via solid documentation , the hunt substance and hunt culture
offered that consistently ranks us as the most successful free
range Kentucky deer outfitter in the state. Choosing any
outfitter that lacks multiple year history of displaying solid
facts and details about the full scope of what goes into a
Kentucky outfitter deer hunt is a shot in the dark.
Odds will be with you
at Snipe Creek ,

Outlined below are the actual and only
days that will be hunted on Snipe Creek hunt properties.
1) Early September Ky velvet hunt. (Applies no pressure to the
November rifle hunt.)
2) 5 days (only), the early-mid October bow / powder combo
Kentucky deer hunt. (Applies no pressure to the Nov. rifle hunt)
3) November rifle --16 day Ky rut hunt. (Going into this hunt -
totally pressure free..ranks us consistently as the Number one
Ky deer outfitter in the state , based on 100 % free range
results.)
4) December second rut, Kentucky black powder / muzzle-loader
deer hunt. ( A local favorite for older aged matures.)
No hunts will be conducted on all other dates. Every
outfitter in the nations big buck states , including Ky
outfitters offer and sell a lot of "pre-rut" and "rut" bow
hunts. These high pressure bow hunts are almost exclusively
conducted prior to the fire arms rut hunt.
Snipe Creek will not hunt on any dates that give low or even
marginal odds at harvesting mature bucks. Hunting
(particularly bow hunting ) all of October and bow hunting early
November prior to the November rifle season tarnishes the
November rut rifle hunt by a huge amount. Basically the does are
largely to blame. All does have 2 or 3 fawns ,and the does
are very protective of their young and vulnerable fawns. The
protective does when pressured move their young family extremely
rapidly to other feeding and bedding zones.
If you go into the rifle rut hunt with non
hunted deer on non hunted property, the does and bucks have and
will completely commit to rutting on these properties ;
does and bucks have spent all summer foraging in the food plots
on managed hunt properties and then the last 28 days before rut,
the relaxed herds of deer are laying out scrapes , rubs , scent
branches and other love markings, known only to the whitetails,
on the wildlife enhanced managed land.
What makes or breaks great" hunt odds" is not the number of
hunters in camp during the rifle season----what kills a rut
rifle hunt is when deer are disturbed on properties during the
28 days prior to the actual rut. Those 28 days is a critical
period of time when the herd is laying out their rut plan and
intentions ....Deer disturbance of the slightest degree during
this 28 day "critical" period of pre rut behavior , alters
the herds rut plan to other habitat zones which will become the
new rut zone and certainly decreases the odds at a successful
hunting experience. SNIPE CREEK DOES NOT BOW HUNT ANY OF THIS 28
DAY "CRITICAL" PRE RUT PERIOD OF TIME..
When herds of free range deer are left
completely undisturbed during the 28 pre rut days, the herds
will continue to stay in Snipe Creeks hunt zones. ---Much could
be discussed about the "rut disturbance" and its effect on odds
at seeing deer in general, as well as seeing aged deer.
Its truly amazing to watch the herds of deer move to our
non-pressured hunt properties in the fall as the other "local"
October and early November bow hunters send many herds of deer
to the hands of Snipe Creeks Ky deer hunt plan.
This very disciplined hunt calendar ensures that every hunter
hunting, on any hunt offered, at Snipe Creek is hunting "high
odds" dates at seeing and killing mature Ky bucks. Also
important to note, is that the "high odds" hunt dates that are
offered exclusively at Snipe Creek have not been tarnished by
useless hunting prior to the prime dates. This fact along with
other key components of our hunt culture and hunt plan,
consistently ranks us as the number one Kentucky outfitter in
the state , as well as the Mid West.

The impact of 100+ well maintained and strategically placed rich
and nutritious food plots, combined with vast habitat
enhancement has changed the positioning, travel routes, bedding
areas and feeding zones of most herds of deer in a 5 mile
square. (Snipe Creeks hunt zone)
Each summer, it is ubiquitous to see herds of 10-20 bucks in
every bean field around and on Snipe Creek's Properties. Most
often half of said bucks are 3.5 and older with 130-175 inch
racks. When the green fields dry, most all the bucks head for
another known food sources - food sources on Snipe Creek
Properties. Deer season comes and out of town hunters
looking for a Kentucky deer hunt get their moneys worth. Snipe
Creek Properties consistently puts the smack down on a lot of
big Western Kentucky deer (bucks).
Every summer there seems to be even more and bigger deer in
those visible green soybean fields. Again as the beans turn
yellow and waxy those big bucks will b-line it to their known
food sources on Snipe Creek Properties. 2011 will be another
record season at Snipe Creek Properties.
Consistently successful Western Kentucky deer hunts are strongly
correlated to food source and habitat improvements. Hunt plans
that consider such improvements will offer what any hunter
seeks. A moment with nature that will explode with that hunt of
a lifetime.
After 20 plus years of planting and maintaining numerous food
plots in this region, Snipe Creek Properties has vastly improved
the Western Kentucky deer herd. Due to our Snipe Creek Quality
Deer Management Program, the deer herds have become "imprinted"
and are "hooked" on the best food sources available. We
exclusively hunt 3�+ year old, 130"+ bucks and are working in
cooperation with local landowners to improve the herd for all of
Western Kentucky. Proof can be seen in our post-season
2011 trail cam photos,
2010 trail-cam photos,
2010 velvet trail-cam photos,
2009 kills, and
2010 kills!

The bottom 5 pictures to the
left depict a
small sample of how 100+ well positioned and
pristine food plots are creating and
manipulating the 2011, snipecreeklodge.com
Kentucky deer hunting picture. Both pictures are
plots of high protein chicory and clover. The
field with the single mature buck is an "aged"
plot planted 3 years ago. The plot with the 8
bucks was planted this spring 2011 on March
23rd. Many herds of deer are imprinting to the
Snipe Creek Lodge food plot locations all summer
and into the fall hunting season. More pictures
of food plots and deer can be viewed by clicking
any of the field plot work or trail cam pics
from the 2011, 2010, 2009 years. Important to
note is how a history of deer manipulation
consistently yields explosive Kentucky outfitter
deer hunts, which consistantly place a lot of
aged bucks in front of hunters as seen by the
kill pictures.
