and will pick you up at whatever time you would
like to break. We serve Lunch at noon, and
then you will be returned to your stand to
be picked up shortly after dark. At the end
of the day you'll enjoy a large southern style dinner
cooked by your personal chefs at the lodge.

Whitetail Deer You'll Encounter
During a Hunt...
 Large Alabamba bucks taken at Oak
Ridge Lodge are equally distributed (50/50)
from morning hunts, and afternoon hunts. In other
words, your chances of taking a large buck in the
morning are the same as taking a large buck in
the afternoon. Please note, Oak Ridge Lodge does
have restrictions on bucks harvested to protect
the future of deer hunting.
Deer need to have a 15 inch inside
spread, which is normally the width of the
ears. There is no restriction as
to the number of points a buck must have, except
for the state restriction requiring that one
side must have at least 3 points. There
is a $300 fine for shooting lesser bucks.
Average weights on mature bucks
have ranged from 185lbs up to 240lbs with some
spreads as wide as 23 inches inside. There
are many bow hunting stands located in
prime hunting spots for anyone wanting to try their
luck with archery tackle. Oak Ridge is also
set up for, and welcomes black powder hunts. |
