Wind direction, stand placement, the lay of the land, scouting, and knowing how to read signs are all factors that produce opportunities for our hunters. The art of bow hunting is learned through countless hours and years of trial and error. Our seasoned guides understand bow hunting and have been immersed in bow hunting their whole lives, taught by fathers and grandfathers. We understand bow hunting! Don't trust your hard-earned money and your hunting experience to just anyone.   We have guided countless hunters over the years to successful hunts. We will give you 110%.

THE HUNT IS A 4-DAY, 5-NIGHT ALL-INCLUSIVE HUNT INCLUDING LODGING & MEALS.

HUNT COST. FROM $3250.00 PER HUNTER.  

The Premier Outfitters early-season archery velvet hunt takes place on the first Saturday of September. Our second early season hunt takes place on the second Saturday of September.  Included with your hunt are full lodging and three meals daily, including snacks and evening beverages. A seasoned professional guide will lead your hunt, and we will transport you to and from the hunting areas. Finally, we provide field dressing and capping of your harvest to offer you the complete adventure.

LOCATION

Kentucky is one of the few states in the US that offer the opportunity to harvest a velvet buck. Historically, Kentucky ranks #1 for producing giant Boone & Crockett caliber bucks in velvet. This is the perfect time to be the first hunter in the stand for the season.

TIMING

Typically, our velvet hunts take place during the afternoons on established supplemental food plots, standing soybean fields, freshly harvested cornfields, and strategically placed feeding stations.

PREPARATION

The professional guides at Premier Outfitters have spent countless hours patterning targeted trophy bucks prior to your hunt and have placed numerous stands to get you up close and personal with your dream buck. This hunt is our guide's most labor-intensive hunt of the year. Hunters can expect to hunt from a combination of comfortable lock-on and ladder stands. Hunters will be shown recent trail camera photos of the bucks recommended for harvesting in the areas we will be hunting. It is not uncommon for our hunters to see large bachelor groups of mature bucks while on the stand during our early-season velvet hunt.

At Premier Outfitters,  unlike some outfitters, our guides will always transport you to and from your stand locations using Premier Outfitters vehicles. Make sure you are in the stand and ready for your hunt before leaving the area. Our guides are just a text away to answer any questions or concerns you may have while on the stand, and we will always be happy to share your hunt experience and go over the hunt game plan for the next day while back at camp. Finally, we provide field dressing and capping of your harvest to offer you the complete adventure. We want you our hunter to have a great experience, when you hunt with us all you have to do is hunt we will take care of the rest.
