Headed to Rattlesnake Springs in Jan. for a whitetail hunt. Anyone been there? What can I expect to see? I'm going after a 140-159 class buck and my dad is doing the management hunt. Any info would help.... never been on a guided hunt before

It's fully guided? If so, just show up with a sighted-in rifle that you know how to use. They pretty much do everything for you and will explain anything you don't understand. Your dad needs to be aware of proper tipping.

Proper tipping? explain please. I've heard a lot of different things about tipping guides and kitchen staff and what not... what exactly do you mean.
Yes it is fully guided.

Let the moderators move it if they feel a need. Let the outfitters and guides in this forum tell you about proper tipping.

Usually around 10% of your hunt cost
