Kentucky on map, about hunting in kentucky.

The “Bluegrass State,” part of the upland south and the Appalachian region, may be best known for horse racing and bourbon, but it also offers some of the best hunting in the region. Here in the land of Daniel Boone, hunters can roam beautiful forests, rolling open fields, and spectacular mountains in search of deer, bear, elk, and turkeys. Kentucky boasts the largest elk herd east of the Mississippi River. Elk were reintroduced in the southern part of the state in the 1990s after an absence of 150 years, and the herd is thriving. More than 500 elk were taken by hunters last year. White-tailed deer populations are at all-time highs, with nearly a million deer roaming the state, and Kentucky produces enough trophy bucks to stay consistently in the top five rankings of the Boone and Crockett Club listings. In addition, black bear hunting opportunities are expanding as more bruins colonize the state from the southeast. Kentucky is home to a variety of smaller game, including squirrels, rabbits, quail, and grouse. Migratory bird hunting opportunities include doves, ducks, geese, sandhill cranes, and more. Wild turkeys, restocked in the state in the 1950s, are flourishing in numbers that allow them to be hunted throughout the state. Hunters in Kentucky must carry a valid hunter education card while hunting in addition to their license and applicable species permit. Hunter orange must be worn on the head, chest, and back when hunting during the rifle and muzzleloader seasons.

George Cummins, Owner

George was born and raised right here in Central Kentucky has been hunting and enjoying the outdoors his entire life. Much of his hunting as a child happened right on the very same farms we still manage today.  He has been managing a lot of this land for almost 20 years. George is married with 2 boys, ages 12 and 7. He has had a love for the outdoors his entire life. He began hunting with his dad at a young age and he is teaching his boys the same way his dad taught him. 

Salt River Outfitters is a big family, everyone that comes to hunt becomes a member of the family. He will make sure you are prepared for the hunt, whether its your first time hunting or you are a seasoned veteran! George also loves to show people around central Kentucky while they are here hunting; from the bourbon distilleries to the horse farms and Keeneland (horse racing track), there is plenty to see and do in Central Kentucky if you have free time while you are here. Contact Salt River Outfitters for your guided hunting trip today!

The Locations

Salt River Outfitters is located on the “ Bourbon Trail .”  As an added bonus, as you stay with us, you can tour many of the bourbon distilleries on the “Bourbon Trail” that are located within 30 minutes of us.  If a tour is desired, we can arrange it for you during the day before your evening hunt. We have some very good early season velvet archery hunts and our rifle hunts are right in the middle of the rut. Don’t overlook our black-powder hunts; early and late seasons have great opportunities. Contract Salt River Outfitters to set up your guided hunt today!

All we can say is that this is a great place! George and his guys go above and beyond to make your experience one you will never forget. You feel like family with these guys. My crowd will be back year after year. Awesome deer, lodge and guides.
One the best hunts I've been on. George, Joey and Hunter go the extra mile to make sure your hunt is successful. Booking for next year.
I had the opportunity to hunt with SRO during their late November rifle hunt. George and his guys take pride in putting guys in position to have an opportunity at bucks. I was able to take my first whitetail, an amazing 8 point, while hunting with these guys. If you're looking for a top notch outfitter that will bust their balls to get you a deer, these are the guys.
This place is awesome. George and his crew really go above and beyond for everyone in camp. Everything from the lodge, to the food, to all the deer sightings was absolutely phenomenal. Salt River Outfitters is definitely turned into my go to place. I highly recommend anyone that wants an awesome hunt and an awesome experience, to look into this place. Thanks again George Cummins and all the Salt River Outfitters staff for a great hunt and can't wait to do it again next year.

(specific dates - deer only)

When considering ky deer hunting, it's important to look at other   Kentucky Outfitters .  Kentucky whitetail outfitters offer different types of deer hunting guide services.  You'll need to decide how much money you can spend and what type of amenities you want to pay for.   My Kentucky deer ranch is 95% wooded, which means you can get lost hunting and scouting for deer.  I've personally bulldozed in trails on my trophy whitetail property and offer maps so that this doesn't happen, but I have been lost for hours prior to the trails.  When lost ky deer hunting , get more orange out, your gun down, and flashlight on. Walk straight past deer hunters, apologize if you're that close, and walk towards any cars you hear on the road.   Kentucky outfitters try to keep it easy for hunters.  One more thing, know your hunting laws  and have your resident license or non-resident Kentucky hunting license handy. 

I don't mind rambling about food plots, best times to KENTUCKY DEER HUNT , KY deer hunting, and Kentucky trophy deer.  If you're a novice outdoorsman and want to share a ky whitetail hunt with a child, book a gun hunt.  There is a good chance you'll at least "shoot at" a nice buck.  While deer hunting in Kentucky , I sat with my niece, who is a good shot, and watched her miss a 140 inch 10 pointer by 5 feet cause she was nervous. In 2015, the same thing happened.  The Kentucky whitetail big bucks will peak out for a bit, or they'll be on the move. To stop a Kentucky trophy deer, practice on grunting, rattle your horns, or making a noise to get them to stop so you can harvest your trophy buck; otherwise, that deer will be gone. My food plots are almost "scent check proof."  This means I have a lot of "edge" around my food plots so the deer need to come out in the field a bit to visually see if a doe is in the plot.  Speaking of does, I do trap for predators / coyotes to make sure our fawns and deer herd continue to flourish and to protect our Kentucky Trophy whitetail .  Read my Kentucky hunting forum  info to learn as much as you can before paying out money.      What defines a  Kentucky deer hunting guide  or a KENTUCKY DEER HUNTING OUTFITTER?  Some Kentucky outfitters make your food , walk you to stands, and are with you the entire time; this is a great hunting guide service, but it's something we don't offer.  Your job is to hunt.  I do offer a primitive  ky deer hunting cabin  built in 2015 with gas lights,gas heat, cookstove, but it has an outhouse.   Ky deer hunts really vary, which is why I like to show people my Kentucky deer hunting lease opportunity.  Almost 100% of the people who look at my Kentucky semi-guided deer hunt book a trophy whitetail deer hunt. www.huntingkentuckydeer.com

The Ultimate Guide to Deer Hunting in Kentucky: Tips and Strategies

by Hannah McCauley | Jul 11, 2023 | Uncategorized

Deer Hunting

Kentucky, with its diverse terrain and vast forests, has emerged as a premier destination for deer hunting. There are several things to consider before embarking on your Kentucky deer hunting adventure, from understanding the hunting seasons and regulations to mastering the art of deer calls. In this guide, we will take you through these considerations to ensure a fruitful hunting experience with Whitetail Heaven Outfitters, a leader in the Kentucky deer hunting scene.

Understanding Kentucky’s Deer Hunting Seasons and Regulations

Before you even load your rifle or bow, it’s crucial to familiarize yourself with the Kentucky deer hunting seasons and regulations. The Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources closely monitors and regulates hunting to ensure a sustainable deer population. Season dates vary yearly and are classified into archery, crossbow, muzzleloader, and modern gun categories. You must obtain a hunting license and deer permit, adhering to bag limits and antler restrictions. Whitetail Heaven Outfitters will help guide you through the process, ensuring a legal and ethical Kentucky deer hunting experience.

Choosing the Right Hunting Equipment for Kentucky’s Deer

When it comes to hunting deer in Kentucky, it’s essential to choose the right equipment to ensure a successful and ethical hunt. Here are some key considerations for selecting hunting equipment for deer in Kentucky:

  • Firearms or Archery Equipment: In Kentucky, you have the option to hunt deer with firearms or archery equipment. The choice between firearms and archery depends on your preference and skill level. If you opt for firearms, popular choices include rifles chambered in .243, .270, .308, or .30-06. If archery is your preference, a compound bow or a crossbow can be used, with a draw weight suitable for deer hunting.
  • Ammunition and Arrows: Regardless of the weapon you choose, use appropriate ammunition or arrows for deer hunting. Select ammunition or arrows designed for hunting deer, such as expanding rifle bullets or broadhead arrows. Make sure to comply with local laws regarding minimum caliber or arrowhead requirements.
  • Optics: Invest in quality optics to enhance your hunting experience. A good rifle scope can help you accurately target deer at various distances. Opt for scopes with appropriate magnification levels and a reticle suitable for hunting. If you’re an archer, consider using a quality sight or scope for your bow.
  • Camo Clothing: Wearing camouflage clothing that matches the environment is essential for staying hidden from deer. Kentucky has a varied landscape, so choose patterns that suit the specific region and season you’ll be hunting in. Additionally, consider layering your clothing to adapt to changing weather conditions.
  • Tree Stands or Ground Blinds: Many hunters in Kentucky prefer using elevated tree stands or ground blinds for deer hunting. Tree stands provide a better vantage point, while ground blinds offer concealment at ground level. Ensure you have a safe and secure tree stand and practice using it before hunting season.
  • Decoys and Calls: Deer decoys can be effective in attracting deer closer to your hunting location. They can be particularly useful during the rut. Additionally, using deer calls like grunt tubes or rattling antlers can help simulate natural deer sounds and increase your chances of luring deer within range.
  • Safety Equipment: Prioritize safety by using appropriate safety gear. This includes a blaze orange vest or hat to increase visibility to other hunters, hearing and eye protection, and a safety harness if using a tree stand.

In addition to weaponry, proper camouflage clothing is vital to avoid detection. Kentucky’s deer are known to be quite alert, making stealth paramount in your hunting escapades.

Safety Tips and Precautions for Deer Hunting in Kentucky

Safety should be fundamental in every adventure, and hunting is no exception. Always treat every firearm as if it’s loaded, and ensure the muzzle points in a safe direction. Wearing a full-body safety harness is essential if you’re hunting from a tree stand. Kentucky deer hunting can be a rewarding experience, but remember that it’s the safety of you and those around you that comes first.

Deer Hunting Tactics: Stand Hunting vs. Spot-and-Stalk

Your hunting tactics significantly determine your success in Kentucky deer hunting. Stand hunting and spot-and-stalk are two popular strategies. Stand hunting involves positioning yourself in a likely deer area and waiting for the deer to come to you. This method requires patience but can yield excellent results, especially during the rut.

Spot-and-stalk, on the other hand, involves actively tracking and pursuing deer. This tactic requires an intimate understanding of deer behavior and is exhilarating but also challenging. Whitetail Heaven Outfitters, with their in-depth knowledge of Kentucky deer hunting, can guide you on which tactic would be best suited for your hunting trip.

Mastering Deer Calls: Effective Techniques for Kentucky’s Whitetails

To maximize your success in whitetail deer hunting, mastering deer calls is essential. The art of deer calling can turn a slow day in the woods into an exciting hunt. Grunts, bleats, and rattling are all effective calls for Kentucky’s whitetails. The team at Whitetail Heaven Outfitters can demonstrate these calls, significantly enhancing your Kentucky deer hunting experience.

In conclusion, whitetail deer hunting is an exciting and rewarding pursuit, and with these tips and strategies, your next hunting trip is sure to be a success. Remember, hunting is not just about the kill – it’s about experiencing the great outdoors, the thrill of the chase, and the personal growth that comes with every hunt.

If you’re interested in an unparalleled Kentucky deer hunting experience, contact Whitetail Heaven Outfitters a t (859) 509-2704 or visit our website: whitetailheavenoutfitters.com. With their experienced guides and thorough understanding of Kentucky’s deer and hunting regulations, they can ensure a memorable hunting adventure.
