Minimum Antler Restrictions
All farms managed by Whitetail Xtreme, LLC have a 140” B&C class minimum gross score requirement. Any deer taken by a hunter under 140” B&C shall be assessed a $50.00 per inch fee below 140” B&C. Any deer taken below 125″ B&C will be a flat $1000.00. All measurements to determine final B&C gross score will be performed and documented by Whitetail Xtreme, LLC. Management of our deer herd plays a significant role in providing the opportunity at mature quality buck. The antler restriction is one of the few things we can do to accomplish this.
Trophy Provision
Any deer harvested with a gross score over 170” B&C gross will require a flat fee of $500.00. Whitetail Xtreme, LLC will use this $500.00 fee towards having replica antlers made so we may do a mount for the lodge. Whitetail Xtreme, LLC will cover all costs associated with the taxidermy fees and any additional costs for the mounting of the replica antlers. Most of our hunters are repeat hunters. Providing a mount for the lodge for everyone to enjoy gives them the opportunity to relive that hunt and share with others in camp their hunting adventure which ended with a fantastic buck.
