 I just wanted to say how much
fun my 11 year old had at our recent youth hunt at
Kentucky Antler Company. He thought it was terrific and
he was treated like "he" was the one. Our guide Kenny,
knew how to make this trip special for Jackson, as he
spent extra time with him, riding around the farm &
shooting pheasants in addition to the deer hunting.
Jackson had a ball and can't wait till next year...
Thanks for taking care of him.

 My
October 2009 elk hunt at Kentucky Antler Company was
truly the hunt of a lifetime. I was able to take a
beautiful heavy bull scoring 364. It was a challenging
and exciting experience.
Everyone at Kentucky Antler Company was awesome, they
made me feel right at home. I can't wait to go back
again next year. Thanks again for everything!

Balazs, an anesthesiologist currently living in
Stanford, KY, came to the United States in 1999. Since
hunting is so restricted in Europe, Balazs was looking
forward to hunting here in America. He bought a bow
first and then his muzzleloader. After his hunt in March
he had this to say...
"It was a surprise finding Kentucky Antler Company
(Kentucky Antler Company). It was right here, so close
to my new home. This was a dream come true after
fantasizing many times about a Kentucky hunt.
When I heard about Kentucky Antler Company I checked the
great website and next day I was on the ranch beating
about the bush. The lodge was impressive both inside and
out, sitting on a hill with eye-catching surroundings. I
could tell immediately this promised an exciting hunting
weekend that was longed for so much during the foggy
winter.
The flexible and very friendly staff assured me that
basically any type of hunt is possible with the weapon
of my choice. What is more they gave me a really
charming choice: weekend hunt for two different exotics;
one day bow, one day muzzleloader - my two favorites -
all this for a very-very good price and the freedom of
picking what I take from the exotics. (Palisades ram,
goat or Corsican ram)
The time came I showed up and I had the best weekend in
2007 so far at Kentucky Antler Company.
The hunt was simply awesome.
First day bow - I never started a hunt before with a
bow-warm-up. At Kentucky Antler Company you can do that
on the beautiful Hoyt USA 3D archery range. The warm up
became very useful and important later to shoot
accurately when the adrenaline rush hits you on the spot
for the real 3D target.
My guide was also awesome, experienced, relaxed and very
friendly. I knew in 5 minutes this will be a great day.
He even took care of my video camera and we shot an hour
great quality video about the two days at Kentucky
Antler Company that I will always keep as well as the
mounts on my wall.
The goat I wanted was found in 2 hours. Then an exciting
1-hour chase came when, with some luck and tricks, I
could get to my goat to about 35-40 yards. Thanks to the
morning warm up, my arrow did not miss the window of
opportunity. You can see the picture on the photo
gallery. The nicest goat I have ever seen; shiny hair,
huge horns, great color. I do not know about you but I
love stalking hunts.
This was all I wanted. What a day!
The next morning my muzzleloader was waiting eagerly to
release the 50 caliber Hornady. Surprisingly this day
looked harder than the day before.
Adding to the excitement was my fear of the buffalos on
the ranch. You never know what mood they are in. I saw
some damage on 500lbs feeders and trees that this power
machine made!
After stalking through several hills and valleys of I
eventually found him; A good looking Corsican ram
standing uphill around 100 yards away facing me. We were
crawling in the grass hoping not to alert him too much
since he was ready to disappear.
Then the moment came that we all know and will always
remember. The moment when the weapon fires putting
something irreversible to the air, the bagged animal or
just gun smoke and nothing else. This time my CVA and
the timing did the job with a heart shot in the ram.
Needless to say I was happy. Maybe next time I’ll go
after the cocky buffalo!
Kentucky Antler Company is in central Kentucky easy to
access, always waits for you with something new to
offer, great meals, friendly people and top designed
lodge with full log furniture rooms. Kentucky Antler
Company, where the most important is consideration is
you, your hunt and your guaranteed good memory.
Thanks Ken and Jay I will be back."

Dear Ken & Kim
We wanted to thank you for making our stay at Kentucky
Antler Company last week a memorable one. From your warm
welcome beginning with the BBQ at the lodge to driving
the scenic and historic hills of your central Kentucky
area, we left with the feeling that we had experienced
and enjoyed a very special place.
The exceptional hospitality, good food, and outstanding
lodging, plus the world class
sporting clay range and exotic animal animals are
something our friends might not believe, but we're going
to tell them anyway! Your place is a "must see". The
internet pictures capture a very small portion of what
Kentucky Antler Company has to offer.
Thanks again for sharing your beautiful piece of the
world with us. It was a great vacation.
We already miss the songbird and frog serenades every
morning and evening! That was incredible!

"As a Californian who enjoys whitetail hunting in the
eastern United States, it has been my good fortune to
discover the great folks at Kentucky Antler Company. Ken
and his staff have gone out of their way to make my deer
hunting with them pleasurable and successful. It was my
good fortune this past season the take the largest buck
of my life as you can see from the photos. These folks
know the hunting and guiding business! The success of
the hunt not withstanding, the great hospitality and
accommodations are notable. I’ll be back again and
again."
Thanks again

Great hunt at Spike Camp:
When we got to camp Justin reccommended drawings for
stands. He said he had six good stands, but three had
been really hot. Justin was right! All six stands
produced deer, but the three hot stands produced 3 nice
eight point bucks. One was missed and two were taken.
All six hunters in our group had a chance to take a
deer. THe best part of the whole experience for me was
being able to walk out of the tent and go hunting.
Thanks Guys,

I hope you received my pics from my recent dall sheep
hunt with you guys. I had a blast! Top notch outfit!
I’ve told all my hunting friends here at home what a
outfit you guys run up there. Wayne and his wife were
also great hosts. Wayne done an EXCELLENT job guiding.
Better keep him around. I would be interested in a
trophy high fence whitetail hunt if you have any
available. I wanna take at least a 180 class deer. If
you can do this what would this class deer cost me.
Thanks,
Tim Turner

I just wanted to tell you that you all have a beautiful
place out there, i came up this past Sunday with my
brother to check out the ranges and fire off a few
rounds for a couple hours, it's nice to now know that
there is a rifle/pistol/and clay pigeon range a hop skip
and a jump from my home in Lexington, and the fellow
working the desk at the lodge was extremely nice and
helpful, i will defiantly be returning several times
this Spring and Summer and look forward to seeing the
rest of the ranch!!

Dear Kentucky Antler Company:
My name is Vicky Cooper. I am the County Coordinator and
shooting sports coach for Fayette County 4-H Shooting
Sports in Lexington, Kentucky. My first experience at
Kentucky Antler Company was two years ago during the
YHEC Brewer Invitational that was held there. Last
summer, my family participated in your 1st Annual 4H
Shooting Sports Clays Classic. I absolutely adore your
facility, staff (Kim is the best!) and ranges. Kentucky
Antler Company provides a convenient, safe and well
managed place that I can bring my son to practice and
improve his shooting skills.
Fayette County Shooting Sports is planning a silent
auction/drawing fundraiser. It will take place at your
Lancaster facility on April 24, 2010 during the YHEC
Brewer Invitational. 100% of the proceeds from this
fundraiser will be used towards the purchase of shooting
sports equipment (bows, shotguns, targets, shooting
equipment, etc) for our program. This is a fairly large
event in this area and the kids/parents that attend the
event support shooting sports, youth hunting and
development.
Would Kentucky Antler Company Outfitters be able to
donate any items for this cause? I would be able to
provide you with the tax id # for tax purposes and any
other paperwork that the organization would need. Myself
and 4-H would be eternally grateful for any assistance
you would be able to provide. Any donations would be
greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and
attention. You may reach me at the information provided
below.
Regards,
Vicky Cooper, Coordinator
