Dress warm - but
NO ORANGE!
Our blinds will hide you
from the neck down -
you will be responsible
for the remainder.
Will we have to walk very far?
Nope.
You rarely have to walk 50 yards. We will ferry you and your gear to the blind in all but the most miserable of conditions.
What days do we hunt?
All of 'em. Holidays included.
Where do we hunt?
FVGS operates out of Aurora, Illinois. We hunt in Kane County less than one hour west of Chicago. We meet for breakfast at Harner's Bakery and Restaurant in North Aurora. From there it is 10 minutes to our fields.
What's the deal?
The cost is $150 per hunter. Tipping of guides is permitted but not required.
A 50% deposit will secure your hunt date. The remaining 50% is due pre-hunt.
How many can hunt together in a group?
Most days we are able to accomodate groups of twelve, but the State of Illinois allows only five goose hunters per blind. One is your guide, so we can only keep groups of up to four hunters together.
Can I come alone?
Absolutely.
