Notes from the landowner

Stellagri Estates offers 50 acres of archery only deer hunting just south of Troy, Missouri, in Lincoln County. Built for bowhunters who want a quiet, low pressure sit in Midwestern whitetail country, the property sits about an hour north of St. Louis.
A long grass field runs through the middle of the property, wrapped by hardwoods and transition cover that funnel deer along its edges. A small pond provides water, maintained paths allow quiet entry, and a nearby powerline easement and neighboring crop fields keep deer moving through the property all season.
Your group of up to four gets the property to itself for five days. This is a DIY hunt, so bring a climber or saddle to stay mobile and adjust to fresh sign, and the landowner provides a map with suggested setups that work with the terrain. E-bikes and electric golf carts are welcome for getting around, and there is room to set up a target and check your bow or crossbow before your first sit.
Missouri archery permits are sold over the counter to residents and nonresidents, so no draw is required. Each adventure runs Monday through Friday and is priced per hunter. Lodging, food, and fuel are minutes away in Troy, and camping is available at Cuivre River State Park.

Game and habitat information

Lincoln County sits in east central Missouri, an area known for strong deer numbers, and deer are seen on the property almost daily. The layout does a lot of the work for you: a rectangular grass field ringed by timber creates natural bedding cover and funnels deer along the woods edge, while a small pond keeps water close.
There are no crops on site, but the grass gives deer plenty to graze, and neighboring farms are planted, which keeps deer in the area year round. A nearby powerline easement steers movement right through the property, and small acreage parcels to the north act as a soft boundary that helps hold deer. Buck activity picks up noticeably during the rut in late October and November as bucks travel in search of does. Missouri has removed antler point restrictions statewide, so steady traffic gives you a solid chance to fill a tag.

Harvest Reports

After your hunt, you will be sent an automated Harvest Report. To assist Infinite Outdoors in maintaining the quality of properties - and continue to put conservation at the forefront - we require that the harvest report be completely filled out and returned. Failure to fill out the harvest report within 2 weeks of the hunt taking place will result in a $25 fine. If you are unsuccessful in filling your tag, Infinite Outdoors still needs to have that information provided to them. This is how we will make changes to future year's harvest quotas and continue to be the most well managed access and conservation platform in the country.

Current Seasons

https://infiniteoutdoorsusa.com/links/mo-seasons
Missouri’s archery deer season opens in mid September and runs to mid November, closes during the November firearms portion, then reopens in late November and runs through mid January. Crossbows are legal for all archery hunters. Only one antlered deer may be taken during archery season before the November firearms portion. Season dates change each year, so check current dates with the Missouri Department of Conservation.

Licensing

https://infiniteoutdoorsusa.com/links/mo-licensing
Every hunter needs a Missouri archery hunting permit. Archery permits are sold over the counter to both residents and nonresidents starting each July, through the MO Hunting app, online, or from permit vendors. Additional antlerless permits are also available.
Hunters born on or after January 1, 1967, must have completed hunter education. Every deer must be Telechecked by 10 p.m. on the day it is harvested.

Availability

If there is a lapse in availability, please do not be discouraged from contacting Infinite Outdoors. Some landowners have not opened their land for reservations yet. The other reason properties might be unavailable is because we work directly with our landowners and hunts are booked by quota set by our biologist for the current year. That being said, we are willing, and able in most cases, to pre-book you for next season. OR book you in place of someone else canceling their reservation.

Trespassing

You are not legally allowed to access the property, for any adventure, prior to your selected access day. If you try to access the property at all before your selected date(s), without prior approval from IO, you will be subject to trespassing and punishments therein.
