J&S Trophy Hunts
Steve Shoop, Owner
In order to be a successful guide, you need to be an exceptional hunter.  Steve has hunted in Iowa, Missouri, New Mexico, Colorado, Arizona, North Dakota, Montana, Wyoming, Nebraska, Texas, Minnesota, and the continent of Africa. 
However, in order to never take away from our hunter's chances at a big buck, Steve only hunts on a 50 acre piece where we live and only after all of our hunters have left for the season, or he goes out west during the months of September and early October. 
Steve is mainly a bowhunter, and he can hunt with the best of them.   He, and the J&S team have guided our hunters in harvesting in excess of 500 Pope and Young deer in the last 20 years. 
This tradition remains strong today.
Here are just a few photos of Steve's recent hunts.
