Title: Outstanding Times 
Note: In 2006-2007 I have came out to the roost for bow hunts.I have booked 2008 hunt and ready for another year @ the roost with the crew.I have had a fantastic time and experience the last 2 years.The 1st year I was in contact with a 170 plus buck and seen several shooters for most.In 2007 I scored on a very large Doe and missed a shot @ a 130 class 8 point that was taken the next morning by Clay Hall from Summit tree stand.I think Chad is doing a very good job making it an outstanding hunt for who ever you are.I can't wait to come back to the roost for another hunt.Great job Chad and Family.Greg

Title: my second hunt 2006 
Note: This is our second time hunting with Chad and Ray had a great time again there were six of us that went from georiga and five had chances to kill a nice Billy some chose to wait on one bigger , My self shot a 140 class 8 point with a huge body the first day, the biggest deer I ever killed . There were two of us that just didn't get a chance to shoot. Both were above 150 class deer, but thats why they call it deer hunting.There are 5 or 6 of us already booked to go back next year. These guys work hard to try to make your hunt succesful and a great time along with it. Thanks Greg Bennett

Title: Great Hunting 
Note: I met Chad and Ray at a hunting show in Perry, Georgia in the fall of 2005. My passion is turkey hunting so it quickly became the main topic of our conversation. I have always heard about the great hunting in Missouri so we began discussing the Buzzard's Roost. Chad said their properties were loaded with turkeys so I was ready to give it a try. I recently returned from an unguided hunt earlier this month and man was it a blast. I was able to harvest my largest turkey to date on the first morning. The land they have is truly an awesome place to hunt turkeys. Not only is the hunting great, but they have great accomodations while you are not in the woods. Chad and Ray are great guys and if you want a great turkey hunt with all the accomodations, Buzzard's Roost is the place for you to visit. Thanks, Phillip

Title: Turkey hunt 
Note: I recently returned from an unguided turkey hunt in Missouri with Chad and Ray. My partner and I both took good gobblers on a two day hunt. Chad and Ray are great guys to share a hunting camp with. They will put you on property with plenty of turkeys, which usually translates to numerous opportunities to fill your tags. I highly recommend Buzzards Roost for a great turkey hunt.

Title: The Roost 
Note: Chad and Ray are great guys and they know how to run a great turkey camp. The lodging and meals are excellent and the stories and good times that are shared last in the memories. If you want a GREAT OUTFITTER in the heart of turkey country, you are looking in the right place. Chad and Ray will not disappoint you. I have been through other outfitters and at the end of my trip, I just scratched my head and didn't think that trip and investment was worth my time for what I received. The opposite is true with Buzzards Roost.

Title: Found BILLY 
Note: The first guided hunt I have ever been on . Chad and Ray could not have worked any harder to make our hunt sucessful.We truly had a great time.Jerad and Tray both should have killed a 140 class plus each,on the 5 day bow hunt.As for me the shooters were out of range. So Chad and Ray put togetter us a combo hunt,and the first morning I killed my first trophie ever, better known as Billy. We truly had a great time and before we left we booked 2006 . This hunt will always be at the top of my list. Thanks again Greg

Title: An Awesome hunt! 
Note: Chad's professional guiding experience helped me harvest my first wild turkey which I'll never forget.. They are very accomodating and strategically located in the heart of some of the best turkey hunting the midwest offers! Chad puts a great deal of time and energy into the hunt with a goal of exceeding every expectation you had coming in. Thanks again!

Title: Yelp of a Good Time 
Note: Hunted with Chad and Ray this past Spring and had the time of my life!!! Great Guys, we hunted a variety of terrain and methods and were on birds from the get go at every stop! I harvested 2 Huge Eastern's and was very pleased and impressed with every aspect of my trip from the leases to lodge...I'll Be Back!

Title: Great Hunt!!! 
Note: After Turkey Hunting Missouri with Chad & Ray this Spring I left with one of the most rewarding Hunts I've had to date! I've hunted all over the country and their outfit is 2nd to none. The new lodge is first class all the way, plenty of room to lounge incredible cuisine...you won't be hungry! It's no secret that Clark County Missouri has one of the countries densest populations of Easterns and their leases are prime examples. Tons of Turkeys! I took my 2 Boss Gobblers, one with Double Longbeards, and guarantee I'll be back for more...hopefully along with an Iowa tag! Thanks Guys, Steve

Title: Great Outfitters 
Note: If you are looking for some guides who will work their tales off, and put you on some good bucks, then you've got to give Chad & Ray a try. I hunted with these guys on a Missouri bow hunt in the 04 season. I've been hunting whitetails for over 20 years, and my experiance with these guys was one of the best hunts I've been on. I, like you, have been on some so-called trophy hunts where as soon as you get out of the truck, your outfitters first words are,some of you guys owes me some money, then they put you in a spot and leave you all day,and could care less of your success, whether you're seeing deer or not. You'll not have to worry about that with Chad & Ray, their success is your success. This testimonial was unsolicited. Rich GA.
