ur hunts start early in the morning after coffee and biscuits at the lodge, about
one hour before sunrise. Our guest will be given a VHF Radio and will be dropped off
close to the stand they draw and will walk to ensure not to disturb any
trophy deer nearby. This method has worked wonderful in the past.
We do not use any motor vehicles unless needed to pick up harvested
game. As a part of our commitment to giving each hunter a personalized hunting experience, we can walk or drive hunters directly to thier stand and assist them in and out quietly and safely if they choose us too. We provide the ride on all electric UTV's due to most of our stands locations are in extremely remote areas. We have numerous handheld VHF radios to ensure the comfort
of all of our hunters. Some may want to hunt longer than others.
Radios come in very handy. Most guys hunt till 11-12 and come in for lunch. Then head straight back out about 3-4 hrs before dusk for your evening hunt. Hunters may stay in their stand all day if they choose too!!!! SMART!!!!

Clay McPherson, Owner of Cutawhiskie Creek Outfitters is a member
of the Quality
Deer Management Association (QDMA), and has practiced
Trophy Deer Management Strategies on the property for several
years. These same strategies apply to all hunters that hunt on
our land. No bucks harvested under 8 points, unless it is a mature management buck.. No DOE harvest is allowed during the month of November unless authorized... Hunters during this time will be able to harvest 2 trophy bucks 8 or better.. By doing this each year, we have been seeing an increased number of yearling bucks. This is all part of Trophy Deer Management Strategies.
Whitetail bucks typically obtain maximum antler size between
5.5 and 8.5 years of age. These older mature bucks are our primary
focus. This often involves aggressive doe harvest (higher than
QDM) and intensive habitat management. This also requires passing
on numerous quality younger bucks with nice racks. We maintain
accurate harvest records to assess management progress and to
fine tune management strategies.
Fines
During our hunts, fines will be collected for taking a button buck, a buck under 8-points, and the illegal taking of any game under NC Wildlife Laws. The fine for taking a button buck is $250, the fine for taking a buck without 4 points on atleast one side is $1000, and the fine for taking any game illegally that is not in season (Bear/Turkey) is $1000 and will be reported!!! Our fines are imposed on our hunters, not as a means of income for our profit, but are set to help aid our Quality Deer Management Program. This way each hunter will have an equal opportunity to harvest a "Trophy" on their hunt, either this season or next.
License
All hunters
must have a valid North Carolina Hunting License,
and abide by all NC Hunting Regulations. Out-of-state hunters are able to purchase a license by clicking the above link or at a local business upon arrival. Click the link to see application for Tundra Swan Permit... This is by far the easiest method...
Tipping
Tipping
is not required, but it is well appreciated.

time. Shooting distances can range from 10 yards up to 500
yards depending on which stand the hunter selects. Average shot range is 150 yards. Here are a few pics of the many on our property...
