Our Hunts and Rates


The Quail Shed offers exceptional hunts for 100% wild, free-range trophy Whitetail Deer beginning October 1st.

We are now booking for the 2008 - 09 and 2009 - 10 Seasons!

New for the 2008 - 09 season:
Kill an antlerless deer, on a bowhunt, and you will be entered into a drawing for a free hunt next season!

Also:
We have a few bowhunters who have asked to be able to take a deer smaller than the restrictions on our trophy managed properties. In response to that request, we now offer a hunt, on other properties, which will allow a hunter to take the buck of his choice!
There is still a very good chance that you might shoot a deer which exceeds our minimum (130 P and Y) on these lands. And, if you do we will refund $300.

We have also continued to expand our available hunting land, including more quality hunting locations in Clark, Crawford, Jasper, Cumberland, and Coles counties!


For the 2008-2009 season, we will continue to offer semi-guided hunts which include meals (Continental breakfast, sack lunch, and evening home cooked dinner) and lodging, access only hunts, and a season membership.

We will book a very limited number of Shotgun or Muzzleloader hunts, on special properties, in addition to our Archery hunts, and a Combination Hunt which includes one week of archery and your choice of one of the firearms seasons. Gun hunts are limited to one trophy buck (140 B & C and up), and one doe.
The Combo Hunt will offer our hunters the chance to take two trophy bucks, one with each weapon .

Bowhunts are normally six consecutive days. However we can work with you, if you need to hunt on a different schedule.
Additional days, added to a scheduled hunt, may be available on a limited basis.
Unless you opt to hunt the non-managed properties, you may shoot one trophy buck (130 P & Y and up), and unlimited does on your bow hunt!
Taking additional does is encouraged, and these tags are available over the counter in Casey, the closest town.
