   Lecuyer's has put together a lease on over 8,900 acre's of wood's and farmland, 45 miles south west of the lodge. 5 farms encompassing 32 separate pieces of Prime hunting property. We have exclusive hunting rights for several years on all the properties. Together with each land owner we are managing both the type of hunt and number of hunters. Unlike the Island/ bush hunts, here we are stand hunting only. We have built some of the finest tower stands anywhere. Being 18' off the ground, with a building 6' by 4' by 6' high. Shooting lanes out all 4 sides, padded swivel seat and urinal, they are very comfortable. Along with the tower blinds we also use the new giant bail blinds and ladder stands. All are over Alfalfa fields on the timbers edge and river bottoms. This small pocket of Ontario grows some of the richest Alfalfa in the world! The deer love it. There are plenty of river bottoms and watering holes scattered throughout the land. Here, we do two, 7 day hunts, taking only up to a maximum of 14 hunters in one season. For those who do not like to walk, this is the hunt for you. You will see plenty of deer each day. Our guides will transport you and you party to your blinds each day.

   Here we provide one pro guide for each two hunters. Your guide will be spotting off a different stand for you, in case you may not see something you like. Managing the hunt was the only way in which these farms would allow this land to be hunted for the first time. Should you book with a party of 8 or more hunters in your group, we will not take any other hunters on the farms the same time. Ontario host the largest white tail deer herd in Canada. (2004 stats) This hunting zone host one of the highest deer densities in the entire province. This is the same deer herd as in northern Minnesota. The state of Minnesota has the highest number of record book bucks, in the top 50 ever taken. Some of our land is actually just on the other side of the river that separates Canada from Minnesota. The difference being, you will not have a million hunters walking through the woods with you. This is a great opportunity to harvest a Canadian trophy of your own. Our package is all inclusive with no ad on trophy fee's. We look forward to having you join us on this trophy Canadian white tail hunt.
