Anybody ever used them? Ran across them on FB. Looking for help before I plop down some cash. Thanks!

Never heard of them, of course all it takes to be a guide these days is a social media page

Looks like they started their page in August[Linked Image]


This is off their Facebook page. Don’t know anything good or bad about them. Just relaying the names

A Houston owner, with a California guide, with a new fly formed guide service in North Texas?

A big no thanks for me

My daughter and I hunted with them twice last year and 3 times this season in the Eastland, Tx area. Several of our friends do as well. They're straight up guys that will let you know if the ducks are there. Big plus since it doesn't appear the migrations are nearly as good as in previous years.

We still have 2 more hunts scheduled with them this season.

They offer veterans a discount.

No idea why they changed their name but, they have posts going back to 2017.

A little late to the party, but I will vouch for Anthony being a stand up guy. Disclaimer: I have never hunted with him, but he is a Purple Heart Veteran I have had the opportunity of knowing through being involved with the Warrior Bonfire program.

Hunted with them this weekend. Legitimate outfit. Anthony is an experienced guide and Marine combat vet. Will hunt with them again. FWIW, lots of folks keep their number from wherever they first get their phone.

Not a barn burner but I enjoyed the company of three combat vets. They provided a free hunt for another group of veterans in coordination with Rally Point this weekend and are also involved with Cover 6. Both of these veteran groups are on FB.

Clayton Williams is as shady as they come. He screwed over his previous business partner and Iraq veteran which is why the name changed yet this guy wants to act like some sort of vet sympathizer?

He embedded himself with big veteran non-profit organizations such as Cover 6 and Rally Point Outdoors during his time with previous veteran co-owner. These organizations were informed of his wrong doing yet continue to use him from what I see on the Facebook pages. Very shameful for these organizations. They don't deserve another dime in donations if you ask me.

I also know first hand that Clayton is baiting the tanks they use for duck with fresh sacks of corn from the feed store. I saw it in there spread myself on a veteran hunt last year. Lee Dycus the Eastland County game warden will be on the look out for them so tread lightly.

I've hunted with Clayton the last three years both duck and hogs/varmints. He is one of the most stand up guys I've ever met. He always works his butt off to make sure you have a successful hunt and is above reproach as far as his hunting ethics.

Great guys who can affordably put you on a great hunt

Birdcat, welcome to the forum...I think. Since you made the accusation, support should be forthcoming. I'm not making judgements pro or con. I have no dog in this fight but the interest in the truth.

You've thrown out some pretty serious accusations. I'm not affiliated with this outfit, nor am I much of duck hunter, but I hope that if you're going to make these claims that you can back them up with evidence. Slandering a small business with unfounded anecdotes would be a terrible thing to do in my opinion. This forum has enough of a following that the opinions posted on here can genuinely affect a business owner's bottom line and, in turn, their family. Hope you take that into account.

Yes these often seem suspicious.
