What types of ring-necked duck hunting trips are common?

Duck hunting is the most popular type of hunting for ring-necked duck as well as goose hunting, upland hunting, and dove hunting.

How much does a ring-necked duck hunting trip cost?

Prices for ring-necked duck can range anywhere from about $500 to $15,220, but the average price for a half day trip for ring-necked duck is $1,216. The average price for a full day trip for ring-necked duck is $9,388.

Is booking a hunting guide worth the money?

Hiring a guide provides a number of benefits and many choose to book a hunting guide for a combination of experience, local knowledge, convenience, and cost-effectiveness.

Working with experienced hunting guides who know the best local spots and techniques can dramatically increase your odds of a great day. Having someone who is outside every day and knows the area like the back of their hand is going to give you the best chances of success.

Booking a guide is also more cost effective, especially if you only get out a handful of times per year. When you consider all of the costs you would incur on your own such as the price of a boat, maintenance, insurance, gas, high-quality gear, repairs, and more, you’ll find that DIY is sometimes not worth the expense.

Even if you’ve got a great setup already in your backyard, booking a guide also provides a great opportunity to experience new techniques, new locations, or even a chance at a new target species to knock off the bucket list.

What month is best for ring-necked duck hunting?

The most popular season for ring-necked duck hunting is winter, and most hunters book their trips 82 days in advance.

    Tough day on the water but was grateful for the effort Clayton put in. He scouted for days before the trip and unfortunately the birds just werent down yet, but he gave us every chance we could get for the birds that were around. Looking forward to hunting with him again in a week or two when more birds are down in central TX.

    I had a great time after he told me to park my car on the side of the road and it cost me $165 to get it towed out

    I HIGHLY recommend Captain Andy for his excellent guiding skills and can-do attitude. Unlike many other Guides, he works with a network of other spotters who watch for birds all across the state. He left his home at midnight and arrived at our shooting location at 1 AM to make sure other eager hunters wouldn't grab his spot. The result was an excellent hunt of mixed bag ducks, sprinkled with humor and education about wingspotting. Five stars is not enough for this Coast Guard certified gent.
