Kansas Deer Hunt Report by Larry Kehlenbrink

Larry Kehlenbrink: Kansas Deer Hunt Report

HUNT: Kansas Whitetail Deer Hunt
CONSULTANT: Russ Meyer, Outdoors International

November, 2011

This Kansas deer hunting review was easy for me to write. My wife gave me the option of an elk hunt or Kansas whitetail this year, I chose to hunt Midwest whitetails in Kansas, and was really glad I did. Sometimes it’s not the trophy, sometimes it’s the hunt. This time it was the hunt and I’m 100% sure that next year when I’m sitting in that tree stand on one of John’s properties, it will be the big one.

I think I may have found my new annual deer hunt.

What a place and what a great operation. The outfitter is a down to earth guy and a bowhunter’s hunter. The facilities are great and there are deer everywhere; in fact I saw eight different bucks on one morning alone.

My nine-point whitetail put on a show for me like everyone sees on TV.

He worked a scrape, rubbed on a tree, responded to a grunt call, and strutted in to the shooting lane when I grunt / wheezed. I couldn’t have asked for more action! A fifteen yard shot and he dropped within 25 yards in sight. He was not the biggest buck of the woods, but on that incredible Tuesday morning, he sure thought he was.

Sometimes it’s not the trophy, sometimes it’s the hunt.

This time it was the hunt and I’m 100% sure that next year when I’m sitting in that tree stand on one of John’s properties, it will be the big one. I think I may have found my new annual whitetail hunt. What a place and what a great operation.

My hunt was absolutely top notch.

The outfitter is a fantastic man and incredibly hard working and knowledgeable, there is no doubt he will do everything within his power to make peoples hunts successful and enjoyable. I plan to do it again with him next year for sure.

Our hunt was excellent.

We saw bucks every day along with all other sorts of wildlife. Mountain goats, bears, and foxes were common sights. Fishing and crabbing was special bonus. The food was excellent, the crew was amazing. Outdoors International did a great job of finding exactly what we were looking for.

Jesse Neveau

What an amazing experience!

The hunting lodge was out of this world!, Rooms, food and the scenery were all A+. Our guide was exceptional and had us on Shiras moose all five days. We saw over 30 total with at least 10 bulls. They had a plan for everything including taxidermy and game processing.
