The blue expanse of Middle Lake appeared through the trees, great white egrets and sandhill cranes lifting off of the water in alarm at our arrival.

We hunt in several territories around South Florida. All territories are natural parklands or border pristine country.

Our territories are primarily in Palm Beach and Martin counties and are mostly level with open fields, pinewoods, sand banks, freshwater marshes, low-growing palmetto, streams and reed-fringed lakes.  Any level of rider can enjoy traversing these beautiful areas with us.
