BOW SHOP - Whitetail Heaven Outfitters

Whitetail Heaven Outfitters operates the kind of whitetail operation most hunters dream about: intensely managed land across Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, Kansas, and Oklahoma with zero fences and zero shortcuts. They run five year-round lodges strategically positioned in Nicholasville, Lexington, Battletown, Burkesville, and near Maysville—all centered on Kentucky's legendary Boone & Crockett counties.

Five different lodges means you're not stuck in one camp. Each has its own vibe—some feature fireplaces, pool tables, and basketball courts. All include complimentary Wi-Fi and cable/satellite TV. You share meals prepared by their in-house chef team and common spaces where hunters swap stories after the day's hunt.

"I've hunted with Whitetail Heaven for 4 years now. They have over 70,000 acres of hunting ground and manage each acre intensely to grow mature deer and turkeys. Meals, lodging, and guides have been top notch at each lodge." — Chase Thomason

Kentucky holds the record for the 6th largest typical whitetail ever harvested globally. The state record non-typical buck was killed less than 8 miles from their main lodge. In 2011, 2013, and 2014, Kentucky produced more Boone & Crockett-scoring deer than any other state. This isn't hype—it's documented track record.
