Customize Your Hunt
Every hunt is different, just like every hunter. Once you’ve found an experience you love, dive into the details. Select your package options, which might include choices for the type of game, lodging preferences, or additional add-ons like a guide or chef-prepared meals.
For groups, you can customize packages per guest, ensuring everyone gets exactly what they’re looking for. Whether it’s a solo outing or a father-daughter weekend in the woods, BirdDog helps tailor the experience.
Invite Your Crew (or Go Solo)
Got a group of hunting buddies? Once you book, you’ll have the option to invite them to your hunt directly through the app. If you’re flying solo, no problem—many of our properties are perfect for individual hunters, with landowners ready to provide personalized support.

When temperatures rise and summer is in full swing, most people are thinking about beach days and barbecues. But for savvy outdoorsmen and landowners, summer is the perfect time to start planning for fall hunting and fishing.
