HER OUTDOORS WITH DAOUTFITTERS

Returning to www.daoutfitters.com after my past visit to the all female deer hunt in October was a much anticipated event. Being a true-blooded turkey hunter, the area that DAO calls their own showed nothing short of prime turkey hunting property and I had nothing but high expectations of my first out of state turkey hunt.  Bringing my fiance for his first ever turkey hunt would be a hunt I was sure to remember due to the excitement I love to share with new hunters.  The weather did not seem to want to bring the birds out of the roost due to the rain, but we would be patient set up in an old tobacco barn out of the elements.  John placed a hen decoy about 25 yards in the open field in front of the barn and we sat out the rain. Birds were gobbling in the roost and knowing they were there was excitement enough to keep us on our toes. It wasnt long after John began to talk to the birds again that a short break in the rain hit and John, being more to the left of the set up, alerted us to the approaching bird…or birds as I was to quickly see. My nervousness grew about ten times over, excited that we may have the chance at a double but scared that I would screw up the entire hunt due to the new hunter to my right wanting him to harvest his first bird.   John did an amazing job with decoy placement and calling. The birds came right in to the decoy. The 1…2…3… shoot went flawlessly, sounding as if one shot was made and both birds hit the Kentucky dirt!

Much thanks to John and the DAO crew for a hunt neither of us will ever forget!

See you again soon at the female only deer hunt in October and again in the Spring for another amazing turkey hunt!

HER OUTDOORS SCORES WITH FIRST OHIO GOBBLER  OF 2010

After a successful first turkey hunt with www.daoutfitters.com in Garrison,Kentucky it was back to my home state of Ohio to hit the open fields and deep woods of Ohio. Hunting was more promising than the season last year, hearing birds gobbling in the roost right out of the gate in the beginning of season. Lucky to see atleast 3-4 longbeards a day would be exciting for the first week or so, but frustration set in not being able to talk with the birds over numerous hunting spots. The birds seemed to be dancing to their own song. Nothing I or my hunting partners could do with our combined tactics would pull one into my comfort range. Knowing that patience is the key to a successful turkey hunt, it ended up paying off and making the hunt and harvest that much more appreciated when the right time came.  Having a hard winter this past year was a very obvious to the jake and hen population in years past. Birds weights were down all over, as well as jake and hen sightings. We have never had a shortage of hen sightings here in my hunting areas, let alone jakes. Being out nearly even single day of season, we only saw about 4 hens total throughout as well as only seeing one jake, which was successfully harvested by a fellow hunter in my group. Cant complain about seeing nothing but gobblers, but in a way it was saddening that so many birds did not pull through the harsh winter.

HER OUTDOORS HUNT RECAP: On this particular hunt we started out early at 430 to set up along side an open field to my right and a logging road entering the woods to my left. I sat a hen decoy in the field about 20 yrds sitting center of the logging road to hopefully pull the birds out of the woods if they decided to pitch down into the woods instead of the open field. My hunting partner and I had numerous birds gobbling all over while in the roost but hundreds of yards away in either direction. They hit the ground at daybreak and never made a peep again. An hour passed and my partner wasnt feeling well so he quietly exited our spot and left me not disturb my hunt any further. About 30 minutes after he left, the gobbling started up again and calling a few times seemed to pull a bird a few hundred yards in front of me a tad closer. Focusing my attention on that vocal bird was exciting, but again a lesson was learned to never put your guard down with those silent birds that are in closer than you think! I slowly looked to my right to scan the open field and a few hundred yards away on the field treeline, with no wind, a huge tree just happened to fall completely down and make a huge crash! I sat there in amazement that I just saw a huge tree fall down for no reason and laughed to myself when I decided to yelp a few times and check the status of my last bird. I slowly turned back to my normal sitting position. To my left at the road was a tree with deadfall blocking my sight of the logging road atleast 5 feet away. As I returned to my position,  5 ft to my left I saw nothing but deadfall and a bright red gobbler head staring right at me! And to make matters worse (only because my shotgun was sleeping in my lap) directly behind that beautiful head was the top fan of another strutting, silent bird! I knew I was busted by the first bird so the only thing I could do was stay perfectly still and let them walk…hopefully not far. They retreated out of my sight and I was nothing short of heartbroken. I got myself together and repositoned and waited a good ten minutes and called again. Not a sound came from the birds but I heard a stick break and knew I had one more chance. Knowing they would be more alert than the last visit, I didnt move a muscle and waited. Again they approached a tad further at 20 yards. They both came into range and I connected with the first gobbler. Another day in the woods I am thankful for and will never forget!

KICK BACK WITH A GREAT STORY AND MUCH ENCOURAGEMENT FOR ALL THE LADY HUNTERS OUT THERE! WE CAN GET THE JOB DONE!

  By far the most memorable time I have had hunting would have to be my stay with DA OUTFITTERS ! Not only was every detail covered from the lodge to the hunt, an open minded plan to exclusively open the season up with an all girl hunt was taken into consideration! Women are quickly becoming more accepted in the hunting woods and outfitters lodges  more noticeably over the past year, but to have a group of girls only working the woods was not only fun and comfortable but a great way to learn from other ladies the tips and tricks of their past experiences. From the comfortable lodge, to the guides who went above and beyond, to the encouragement from the ladies – this hunt would definitely be a trip to be planned for my fellow women hunters for next year or a surprise gift for any occasion from the male hunters for his daughter, girlfriend, wife or even mother! DA OUTFITTERS will make this an annual hunt so ladies come and join all of us who are all returning next year for the first crack at the monster bucks of Kentucky! I recommend this outfitter to any woman just beginning to learn the hunt to the most seasoned huntress. I had reservations about traveling to an outfitter alone until the very moment I had everyone greet me from the driveway with open arms ! Not once did I feel unwelcome or not supported throughout my entire stay! Check back soon for a history on DAO,  future plans and what makes this outfitter better than all the rest!
