TESTIMONIALS

I have been to over 15 different hunting camps over the years, but nothing has compared to the experience we had at Royal Rack Ranch.  First off this was my first high fence hunt and quite frankly I was on the fence about this sort of hunt, my own misconceptions and personal bias were that all high fence hunts were pre-packaged meat in the box type hunts and I have no doubt that some of these high fence hunts are just that. However, Royal Rack Ranch is anything but that. The only way you know this is a high fence hunt is that when you come to the camp you see a fence as you are greeted by the owners and staff, other than that you would never know you are on a high fence camp. An example was that we went on an hour-long property tour over the 22 miles of trails, and we never saw a fence… EVER!  

 

Hunting- Each day, we probably saw 15-30 deer each day, some were monsters that were hard to pass up, but I was on a mission to hunt according to the package I selected, you sit with a guide that knows their stuff on scoring racks, deer like behavior, and they give you the yes or no if a deer is in your package class.

 

Accommodations- I was hunting with my dad and we had a suite that featured a full kitchen (not that we needed it) two bedrooms with king sized beds with bathrooms attached. We also had our own living room. It was the most amazing lodge room I ever have been at!

Food- I used to think my wife was a good cook, then I had Brian’s cooking, he ruined me for every other hunting camp and possibly some of my wife’s cooking! The meals were well balanced, unique, and always cooked to perfection.

 

Atmosphere- the general lodge atmosphere was great everyone was kind, excited to see you and excited for you to be there getting exactly what you wanted, the lodge has a huge game room and while I didn’t use it seemed like it would not be hard to find someone to play a game with.  Conversations with the owners and guides were great, everyone was easy to talk to and seemed genuinely interested in you and what you had to say.

 

Overall- This was an amazing hunt, it challenged me in ways I did not expect, the constant deer movement was great, and just seeing some of the monster bucks were amazing- bring a decent camera!  For a hunt I did not expect to like I was very wrong, and we have already booked for next year, I would recommend this hunt as it is challenging, the number of blinds allow for you to get a deer regardless of physical condition, and the food is amazing!
