Cupped Wings Guide Service

Cupped Wings Guide Service operates some of Northeast Arkansas's best duck and goose hunting property. They hunt flooded timber, cypress sloughs, willow bottoms, and flooded agricultural fields (rice, beans, corn, milo, millet) across partnerships with Twisted Rivers Land Management Company.

Positioned between several major WMAs and refuges that winter millions of waterfowl, Cupped Wings sits at what locals call "ground zero" for Arkansas duck hunting.

Both lodges are fully furnished and can accommodate groups up to 20 hunters. Each guest group gets their own bedroom or cabin.
