Field transportation is provided by experienced guides in radio-equipped vehicles. Guides pick up, weigh and dress all game. Daily records are kept and guides check these records along with weather conditions and wind direction before each hunt to make sure hunters have the best chance of seeing game. Walk-in coolers are available to store game until departure. Morning stands are 12 foot ladder stands in strategic locations such as trails, creek crossings and acorn flats. Afternoon hunts are usually over one of the 200 green fields that Bent Creek plants with wheat, rye, clover or a combination of winter grasses. In the afternoon gun hunters shoot from weather-proofed ground blinds that are strategically placed for maximum coverage of the fields. Shots may range from 125 to 300 yards.
