Duck Hunts
Shur-A-Shot Guide Service has over 6,000 acres of rice fields, bean fields and flooded timber. This gives us a number of places to hunt throughout the season. We will scout out the area the day before the hunt begins and locate where the birds are working.
We have also established rest areas for the birds that will hold birds in the area, allowing for more successful hunts. Most hunts take place in covered ground pits in flooded rice or bean fields.
Our hunts take place on private property where you will not be crowded with too many hunters.
