Full description and what we offer
Palisades Bowhunting is an archery-exclusive outfitter in Lancaster, Kentucky, named after the rock cliffs that line their section of the Kentucky River. Owner Zachary Estridge was raised on this land and has managed the deer population since his teenage years. He formalized the operation in 2018 with a straightforward mission: low-pressure hunts for trophy Kentucky whitetail.
Their QDM (Quality Deer Management) approach focuses on four core principles:
"Raised on this land, and have controlled the Quality Deer Management standards for 20+ years. This is what we focus on."
| Hunt | Dates | Duration | Price | Includes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring Turkey | Spring | 2 days | $1,500 | 1 guide:2 hunters, lodging, meals, game care, taxidermy |
| September Velvet | September | 4 days | $3,000 | 1 buck + 2 doe, lodging, meals, field care, taxidermy |
| October Mid Season | October | 4 days | $2,750 | 1 buck + 2 doe, lodging, meals, field care, taxidermy |
| November RUT | November | 4 days | $3,500 | 1 buck + 2 doe, lodging, meals, field care, taxidermy |
| December Late Season | December | 4 days | $2,750 | 1 buck + 2 doe, lodging, meals, field care, taxidermy |
All deer hunts use semi-guided format: guides educate hunters on finding trophy bucks and drive them to/from stands. Taxidermy services available ($750 shoulder mount, $100 cape for travel).
Zachary leads the operation alongside Wess Brown, General Manager with 20+ years of whitetail hunting experience and specialized mammal guide certifications, and Chris Burgess, Farm Manager overseeing habitat and feeding programs since 2019.
Saddle hunters especially welcomed — Palisades actively caters to saddle hunting methods.
"Honest to god best hunt I've ever been on. Absolutely top notch from top to bottom. Great deer, great food and even better people." — Justin Kidder
