whitetail Deer hunting adventures

---

Georgia is home to giant whitetail deer and Killer Instinct Guide Service has access to land in the hottest zones in the state.  We specialize in providing a great opportunity for someone to harvest their first deer; rather it be a buck or a doe.  Our staff can also accommodate the experience hunters that have harvested deer in the past.  We have access to land in Fulton County, Coweta County, Heard County, Meriwether County, and Troup County Georgia.  Hunters can expect to hunt on tracts as small as 1 acre around metro Atlanta or as large as 300 acres in western Georgia.  Our team members keep access to numerous diverse tracts so that we can stay on trophy whitetail deers without having to depend on a single location.  The whitetail rut in Georgia takes place from the end of October to the first of January depending on the area. Our staff will place the hunter in an location that has the most deer activity and the best opportunity to harvest a trophy whitetail.

Hunters are required to obtain all the required Georgia licenses prior to the hunt.  Residents and non residents can purchase Georgia hunting licenses online.  Georgia is not a lottery system for deer hunting.  Our staff can assist the hunter with obtaining the licenses and ensuring everyone is hunting legally.  

Location- Hunters will be hunting one of our properties that has the most activity at the time of the hunt.  

Stands - We set up hunting stands on scrape lines, pinch points, food plots and feeders. 

We have tree stands and ground blinds already setup but you can bring a climbing stand or lock on stand if you prefer to use them instead.

Scouting - We pre-scout for you so no scouting will be allowed.  This keeps foot trail and scent to a minimum on our properties.

Weapon - Bow or Crossbow is allowed in Georgia during archery season

Semi-Guided- Our staff will take the hunter to and from the stand, and also will help with recovering any trophy taken.
