We offer early season hunts for velvet antlered bucks, and during the regular season you can harvest four per hunt! Our season runs from August 15th thru January 1st annually, offering the longest and most liberal deer season in the entire nation. We combine unbelievable deer hunting opportunities with great accommodations and incredible food. Buck Run Hunting Lodge is the adventure you're looking for!
Located in Hampton County, South Carolina, where whitetail deer populations and harvests have traditionally been number one or two statewide throughout the history of deer hunting, Buck Run Hunting Lodge offers the serious whitetail hunter an experience he will never forget!

We hunt deer, turkey, and wild hogs!
We have an amazingly long deer season beginning in mid-August and continuing through January 1. Our velvet buck season is one of the most popular (see video). Ranking right at the top with the August hunts are the Mid-October to mid- November rut hunts. Hunter’s average from 1.25 to 3.25 deer per hunt depending on the number of days hunted.
We hunt over 7,000 acres with 125 different stands located over prime hardwood bottoms, agricultural fields, swamps and timberland. All stands are metal fabricated and designed to hold from 1 to 3 hunters depending on the situation. You will never see the same one twice. All hunts are by reservation only! Whether you are booking a deer or turkey hunt, reservations are limited to 6-8 persons per deer hunt and 4 persons per turkey hunt. Be sure to check out our Big Buck Photo Album for photos of some of our hunter’s harvests.

JUNE REPORT
JUNE WAS NOTHING MORE THAN NORMAL AS TEMPERATURES SOARED ABOVE THE 100 DEGREE MARK ON MANY OCCASIONS AND AFTERNOON THUNDERSTORMS PROVIDED MUCH RAIN TO SOMEWHAT EQUALIZE THE EXTREME DAYTIME HEAT. AS SEVERE AS THE CONDITIONS MAY SEEM, IT IS A RECEPE FOR GREAT GROWING CONDITIONS FOR CROPS, ESPECIALLY FOOD PLOTS. ALL CHUFAS HAVE BEEN PLANTED FOR THE TURKEYS AND PREPARATION IS BEING MADE PRESENTLY FOR DEER PATCHES OF IRON AND CLAYS PEAS.
SPEAKING OF TURKEYS! IT SEEMS THAT WE WILL HAVE ANOTHER GOOD HATCH DESPITE ALL THE EARLY RAIN WE EXPERIENCED DURING THE HATCHING SEASON. WE BELIEVE THAT SOME OF THE EARLIER HATCHES IN MAY DID NOT SURVIVE THE 13” OF RAIN DURING THAT MONTH BUT LATER HATCHES AND PERHAPS SOME RESETS HAVE PRODUCED ENOUGH POULTS TO MORE THAN MEET OUR FUTURE HUNTING DEMANDS.
NOT MUCH MORE TO REPORT OTHER THAN WE CONTINUE TO PREPARE FOR OUR AUGUST 15TH DEER SEASON OPENING BY FINISHING PLANTING FOOD PLOTS, PREPARING STANDS, TRIMMING AND MOWING AND MAINTAING OVER 100 FEEDERS. WE HAVE A FEW SPOTS LEFT FOR AUGUST ON OUR 3RD HUNT SO DO NOT HESITATE TO CALL FOR AVAILABILITY. THANKS AND CONTINUE HAVING A GREAT AND SAFE SUMMER!
Our August hunters last year were all using custom made ATG Rifles! Maybe you should be shooting an ATG Rifle too?
