So you want to book a whitetail hunt with an outfitter, but you
don’t know exactly where to start. Maybe this is your first
time or maybe you’re rebounding from a horrible experience and
you’re attempting not to repeat. With booking season in full
swing, we thought we should explore the do’s and don’ts with Jason
Selman of Hero Shot Outfitters. What questions should you
ask? What are the red flags? What’s should you expect to get
when you spend your hard earn money and when should you run away
and go onto the next outfitter? We explore all this an more
with Jason so that you can avoid big mistakes and ensure a quality
experience when booking your next whitetail adventure with an
outfitter.
