At one I frequent, you just pay for what you want planted. The key is hunting after some huge corporate hunt where they plant hundreds. I can pay for 10 and walk away with as many as I can shoot.



Tell me more about the one you frequent ... Are they open Jan/Feb...? Where is this place? Rates, Website?



It’s Doc’s Hunt Club in Adel, IA. Just outside the Des Moines metro. I’m not sure on the rates, but I think they are in that average $15-$20 range. Open September through end of March I believe. They also have a lodge/cabin on site you can rent.

Very short drive into the western suburbs, and probably only 20-30mins from downtown Des Moines so quite a few hotels, bars, etc nearby.

I know they’ve got a Facebook page.
