Like everything else at Thunderstik, our food is first class. A typical breakfast
includes eggs; bacon, sausage or ham; French toast; fruits; cereals and breads.
Lunches are served in the field picnic style and include sandwiches, stews, chili,
chips, cookies and more. Our five-course gourmet dinners include entrees such

Weather
September is usually warm and sunny with average temperatures in the upper 60s
to low 70s. October and November hunts are cooler, especially in the morning,
with temperatures in the 50s and 60s. We encourage guests to come prepared for
any type of weather and to check the local weather prior to their departure.
