A Typical Whitetail Deer Hunt
Routier Outfitting offers rifle Whitetail deer hunts. This is primarily a spot and stalk hunt for rifle hunters. In the evenings we also sit on agricultural fields where the deer come to feed.
A typical Whitetail deer is going to score 130 in. with the top end being 150 in.
Applying for a Whitetail License
Rifle hunters have two different licenses they can apply for to up their odds of drawing. The first application is due in early April and is called the special buck license. The special buck license is good for one any deer on private land only, and we hunt private land exclusively. It cost $560 and this is your best chance of drawing a license. If unsuccessful in drawing the special buck license you can then apply for the general drawing in June. The general drawing license is species specific and this license cost $286. You have the option of buying a preference points when you apply and that would up your chances of drawing the next year if you are unsuccessful this year.
