INTERVIEW
WITH POSSUM (Ed Anders)
North East Missouri Is Trophy Buck Country
North East Missouri is known world wide for big body deer and bucks
with big, trophy racks. Most of the hunters that come are going to see
a lot of deer. When the deer are active they will see several bucks in
a week's hunt.
At Possum’s Trading Post OUTFITTERS
We
can accommodate 10 hunters at a time. We hunt in North East Missouri and
South East Iowa. Missouri deer and turkey licenses are over the counter
or can be purchased on the internet. Iowa is on a draw.
Our Missouri deer hunts are on 4 leases, 3 of which are bowhunting only.
In Iowa we have 6,000 acres of bowhunting only. Our goal is to be bowhunting
only in 3 years. We are bowhunters and that's where we are going with Possum's
Trading Post Outfitters.
A Few 2003 Hunt Spots Left
We have a few hunt spots available during the Missouri rut and post
rut. Contact Possum at possomstradingpostoutfitters@yahoo.com
or phone 417-343-5853 to discuss possible hunt
dates and details.
Our Hunts
Our camp is focused on the hunt and the hunters. We provide a
"total hunting experience" and give personal attention to our hunters.
When they come in it's all about them. Our lodging is in a renovated old
style building that is all new and modern with all the conveniences. The
building was built in 1912 and was a church until 1995 when it became a
Trading Post where crafts items were sold: knitting, Damascus knives, sorghum
making, quilting, and more. We purchased it in 2002 and put in plumbing,
septic, rewired it completely, and added on to the main building so we
could accommodate more hunters.
We keep 30-40 stand sites set up with either treestands or ladderstands.
My goal is 3 1/2 to 4 stands per hunter so we can situate hunters based
on wind direction and deer movement.
Accommodations
I am a hunter and I built this lodge with hunters in mind, particularly
bowhunters. All the hunters have their own closet space and comfortable,
hand made Hickory wood bed.
Our meals include breakfast, lunch and dinner. If hunters want to stay
out all day we provide them with a sack lunch. Everything is home cooked,
the meals are delicious and the portions are big. We don't want anyone
to go hungry.
We provide every hunter with towels, bedding and scent free soap for
laundry and body. We have showers for the hunters to stay clean. A dryer
is available for hunters to activate their scent control suits.
For the hunters leisure time during mid day we have Satellite TV with
over 100 stations as well as a computer that is online with broadband DSL.
We have plenty of couches and living area so the hunters can relax
and visit at night.
The lodge is non smoking and non drinking. We do everything we can to
protect our lodge's environment to help the hunters with scent control.
Our closets are even lined with aromatic cedar.
Wild Turkey Hunts
Missouri is the number one Wild Turkey hunting state as far as the
numbers of birds harvested. The last 3 years we've had great hatches and
the numbers of birds are better than ever. The birds here are all Easterns
and they are heavy. Three years ago we bagged 56 birds with a 26 pound
average. We hunt both Missouri and Iowa. In Iowa turkey hunting is all
day. However the Missouri hunt hours are from daylight to 1:00pm.
For Information Or To Book A Hunt
