"I've made a career of hunting out West for big game, but like any adventureous bowhunter, I was looking for the next great challenge. A big, old, gnarly-antlered Midwest whitetail was the ticket and while looking for such an animal, all signs point to Tails of the Hunt Outfitters in Southwest Iowa. With Aaron Volkmar working to make your experience memorable, you just might find yourself in the same enviable predicament I was in this past November...wondering how you'll clear off wall space in your trophy room for a world-class whitetail mount. Thanks Aaron....your passion for mature whitetails is contagious!"

"I hunted with Tails of the Hunt Outfitters back in the Fall of '07 and again recently. I must say they were both great hunts with a lot of excitement. I saw a lot of good bucks and several "Booners." I took a nice buck after passing on several mature deer both years."

"I hunted with Aaron during the muzzleloader season in January. It was cold and the area was experiencing record snow fall, but due to his excellent property and habitat, we saw plenty of deer each day, including some fantastic bucks. I didn’t take one, but I will surely return to try my luck again."
