"Thanks for a most enjoyable hunting adventure. I had a great time with both of my hunts. My success was based upon the excitement of seeing some good deer and the efforts of your guides, who did an excellent job in placing stands and catering to all my needs."

Welcome to the Sandy Run Hunt Co. Whitetail Deer Hunting Page Sandy Run Hunt Co. proudly offers several Fayette County hunting areas for whitetail bow hunting. One of our properties includes what the Illinois Natural History Survey has called "the largest virgin timber in Southern Illinois". All of the deer shown on this site were harvested in Fayette County, which consistently is one of the top deer hunting counties in Illinois. Check out our photos page for aerial photos of our properties and some nice racks, some on the wall, some still on the hoof. We will be offering a very limited number of
combination and firearm hunts this year. These hunts will be on property
other than our archery only ground. Please contact for specifics and
pricing, (618) 283-8792. We have about at a 40% success rate for bow hunters. Around 90% of our hunters see shooter bucks and 60% have had shooting opportunities. The clubhouse and lodging are constantly improving make for a really nice hunting experience.
The Sandy Run Trophy Whitetail
Hunt: We will have stands set out in pre-scouted locations, guides will take you to and from stands and handle deer recovery and dressing. Come in the evening before your hunt starts for a little afternoon scouting, have dinner and be ready to start your hunt in the morning. The ground for these hunts include our Sonnemann Woods farm, with 560 acres of archery only property. The remainder of the properties are prime locations throughout Fayette County all with in 30 minutes of our lodge. Our lodging consists of a large clubhouse with kitchen, TV, fireplace, internet and computer access, dining area, individual sleeping rooms, and two restrooms and shower rooms. These are fair chase hunts for free ranging
whitetail deer. In our continuing effort to maintain an abundance of trophy
deer, we ask hunters to take only 1 buck with a minimum rack size of 130 inches. We will also be happy to assist you in finding local processors and taxidermists

"Right from the time we drove up to the day we left, you made both Jim and I feel right at home, but almost like part of the family. The signs we saw on the property (rubs scrapes tracks) said that big bucks live here and seeing was believing." Roger Hill and Jim Riley - MI
