Overall Impression: Amazed

Recommend: YES

Reviewer Comments: Paul Cantrell is very laid back and friendly person. When he tells you to make yourself at home, you know he means it. You feel like you have known him your whole life. Our guide, Don Wade, was amazing. He knew the game in the area very well. He also did everything he could to make sure you had a great time. He got me within 100 yards of a record book bison, and I made a clean kill with my Sharps 45/70 rifle. It was the best hunt of my life!

Overall Impression: Lots of fun and very enjoyable

Reviewer Comments: This hunt started out as an Axis Buck hunt for my wife (Cindy) with crossbow. After we saw the mounted Oryx in the lodge and then a herd of them the next day, she changed her mind. We tried with the crossbow, but just couldn't get close enough, so she switched to a rifle and dropped her Gold Medal Oryx in it's tracks at 216 yards (her farthest shot ever!). We had a great time seeing all the animals and being entertained by Don. Plan to go back for a Blaackbuck later in the year.

Reviewer Comments: What a hunt! Shot a Water Buffalo with my bow! To get in bow range of a water buffalo was no easy task, but Don Wade made it happen.

Reviewer Comments: Booked a hunt at the last minute. Paul and Don made me feel right at home immediately.They both provide the personel attention that is missing on many of the hunts that I have been on. The quality of the game is incredible. Multiple trophy animals of all species that I was hunting for. Their trophy preperation was fantastic. Could not top this hunt for any amount of money. I will definately be back. Amazing how fast our friendships developed in such a short time. They are dedicated to providing a quality hunt for quality animals at a fair price. Can't say enough good things about my experience at N.T.O.
