White tail deer hunting in eastern North Carolina is as good as it gets.  At Woodstock, deer are fed year round and have access to plenty of natural feeding fields.  QDM programs have been in place for over four years.  Deer stands have been strategically placed throughout the four hunting venues and are positioned to maximize your hunting experience.  The land at Woodstock has been hunted sparingly over the past 100 years, but often enough to identify the very best locations for large bucks.  All hunting locations are corned weekly in addition to the natural wheat, grain, and soybean crops which occupy much of the clear cut areas.  Most of the deer stands are enclosed to provide concealment from the deer and a cozy and comfortable refuge from the natural elements.

Morning deer hunts will usually begin an hour before day break and last one to two hours after sunup.  Afternoon deer hunts will usually begin about three hours before sunset, and hunters will be picked up right around dark.

Hunters are limited to two bucks per day while there is no limit to the number of does taken.  Button bucks are not allowed to be taken as Woodstock continually strives to improve its already exceptional buck-to-doe ratio.  The minimum rack requirement for a buck is a 14 inch outside spread.

Because of the tremendous population of deer in Halifax and surrounding counties, our lodge makes an ideal setting for the young hunter.  We encourage fathers and their sons (daughters too!), to hunt our terrain together.  At Woodstock we offer greatly reduced rates for the young hunter! 

All North Carolina wildlife rules and regulations apply to deer hunts at Woodstock Guide Service.
