How to Book Your First Hunt with BirdDog

Booking a hunt shouldn’t feel like tracking a needle in a haystack. Whether you’re a seasoned hunter looking for premium access to private land or brand-new to the sport and ready for your first adventure, BirdDog makes the process simple, seamless, and—most importantly—exciting. Here’s your guide to booking your first hunt with us. Grab your camo, and let’s get started.

Explore Incredible Hunting Experiences

The adventure begins on the BirdDog homepage. Use the search bar or browse through our curated categories—like Whitetail, Exotic Species, or Upland Birds—to find your perfect hunt.

Not sure where to start? Each listing includes detailed descriptions of the property, the game species available, and amenities like lodging and meals. It’s like having a hunt concierge at your fingertips.

Customize Your Hunt

Every hunt is different, just like every hunter. Once you’ve found an experience you love, dive into the details. Select your package options, which might include choices for the type of game, lodging preferences, or additional add-ons like a guide or chef-prepared meals.

For groups, you can customize packages per guest, ensuring everyone gets exactly what they’re looking for. Whether it’s a solo outing or a father-daughter weekend in the woods, BirdDog helps tailor the experience.

Invite Your Crew (or Go Solo)

Got a group of hunting buddies? Once you book, you’ll have the option to invite them to your hunt directly through the app. If you’re flying solo, no problem—many of our properties are perfect for individual hunters, with landowners ready to provide personalized support.

Book with Confidence

Booking through BirdDog is straightforward and secure. Choose your dates, review your package summary, and complete checkout with flexible payment options, including Affirm and Klarna for those big bucket-list trips.

After booking, you’ll receive a confirmation email with all the details you need to start planning. Pro tip: Check out the app’s “Upcoming Bookings” section for easy access to your hunt itinerary.

Prepare for the Hunt

The prep is half the fun! BirdDog sends reminders and tips leading up to your hunt, so you’ll know exactly what to pack, where to go, and what to expect. Many properties even offer direct communication with the host, so you can ask questions or share special requests.

Enjoy the BirdDog Difference

When the big day arrives, you’ll head out knowing you’ve booked an exceptional experience. Whether it’s your first time or your fiftieth, we aim to make every hunt with BirdDog memorable, stress-free, and tailored to your needs. And after it’s all said and done, we’d love to hear how it went—don’t forget to leave a review and share your photos!
