The South is famed for being a preferred destination for the wing-shooter and deer hunter looking for quality animals for the hunt.
In Alabama’s Black Belt, so called for its rich, fertile dark soil, few lodges offer the hunter what they experience at Westervelt Lodge, which is hospitality, great accommodations and food, ample opportunity to get in tune with nature and, of course, the opportunity to go up against their prey, which includes white-tail deer and several bird species for the wing-shooter.
The Lodge is known for being run according to sound principles that respect nature and wildlife conservation. Therefore the Lodge can truly say that they offer the ideal combination of the best habitat for these animals and the ideal herd sizes for deer, as well as all of those important management plans and techniques that ensure that all of the elements combine to deliver the best free-range herds and flocks.
This does not happen by accident. Westervelt Lodge employs experienced Wildlife and general managers, wildlife biologists, wildlife coordinators and administrative staff to ensure that the Lodge and all the activities offered become an example of what a leading facility represents. This approach also stands them in good stead as visitors keep coming back, with new inquiries coming in all the time.
The Lodge’s Manager, Steven Carroll, is often asked for interviews. At one such meeting recently Steven was quoted, “We are proud to offer our visitors great free-range deer hunts that rate among the best in the South. Our unique combination of prime habitat and ideal animal population levels ensure a quality, natural free-range deer herd.”
Proud of their history of being one of the very first lodges to offer some fine white-tailed deer hunts to the public, Westervelt Lodge goes out of their way to make every hunter’s visit to their lodge one to be remembered fondly for years to come.
Their managers and other staff work hard to ensure that their animal population grows in numbers to an ideal level and they ensure these animals have good access to forage and water. They assist hunters with all reasonable requests, such as making sure that ladder stands are well positioned in bottoms and elevated blinds, as well as offering them choices of shooting houses on one of the many well-maintained food plots.
Westervelt management is well aware of the Lodge’s high profile and takes care to ensure they retain their position among the top lodges in the South.
