Here at The Lodge at Circle J Outfitters, our guides work hard all season long to give you the best chance at harvesting your trophy Missouri buck. Our deer are free-ranging, wild whitetail deer and that makes for a real hunt that will give you an experience of a lifetime. We have over 75 stands that spreads over 2500 acres of land and we are always looking to grow our operation by seeking out premium ground for our hunters. All of our blinds/stands are strategically placed near a food source or food plot that we have scouted and picked with your success in mind. Your guide will choose the best location for you to hunt based on deer activity, wind direction and your personal needs, we are willing to adjust where needed.

Located in the N.W. corner of Martinsville, MO. Harrison County

 

The Lodge at Circle J has over 2,500 acres of land that we hunt. We make it a point to not heavily hunt any one particular area of our land, so our deer feel less pressured. Strategically placed in the rolling hills of Missouri, you will find our blinds located on CRP and AG fields, blocks of timbers, farm pastures, creek bottoms and biologic food plots. With all of the food sources and native grasses surrounding our acreage it provides a safe haven for our deer to bed down. While you are with us you will hunt out of tree stands and tower blinds that are ready and waiting for you.

There are no high fences here, it is 100% fair chase. As a way to assure mature bucks, Missouri law states that you must have 4 point minimum on one side. This has given our young bucks a chance to mature, giving our state a spot in the top 10 best states to hunt a whitetail buck, coming in at #7. Your chances of harvesting a buck of a lifetime here at Circle J, is really good. Our average whitetail will score from 130" to 150" with several 170"+ bucks and a hand full of 200" bucks that will weigh 250+.
