Hunt the famous Alabama Black Belt for Trophy Whitetail.
Join us for a memorable experience hunting the peak of the rut in Alabama!
What to Expect
Alabama’s abundant, healthy and growing whitetail deer population allows our state to be consistently ranked in the top 5 in North America’s harvest records. Some of our hunting properties have been intensely managed for trophy bucks for years and may have trophy requirements; while others offer liberal harvest requirements and encourage the harvesting of management bucks and does.
Each year, we strive to offer each of our hunters a memorable experience that will last a lifetime. Our annual hunt attendees range from youngsters attempting their first harvest to seasoned experts looking to add another trophy to their collection. We offer a wide variety of hunting scenarios and have the capabilities to cater to hunters with special needs. We have properties that specialize in archery hunts in addition to others that will accommodate long-range rifle hunters. There is truly something for every level of hunter.
Most important, you can expect to experience southern hospitality second to none. Our endless list of volunteers spend countless hours preparing for this annual event. We look forward to visiting with old friends, making new acquaintances all while making certain that your experience is enjoyable.
Location
Macon East Academy is located in the rural central Alabama community of Cecil, approximately 20 miles east of the capital city of Montgomery. We are in the heart of the famed Black Belt where trophy bucks are a way of life.
This area consists of large, privately owned tracts of land that have been intensively managed for years. The large timber tracts consist of both hardwood and pines surrounded by agricultural cropland. Each year, Macon East Academy hunts these donated properties in several surrounding counties including Montgomery, Lowndes, Butler, Crenshaw, Pike, Bullock ,and Macon.
