WHAT YOU GET:

TOTAL DEER COUNT

Get an accurate snapshot of your property’s whitetail population using advanced thermal imaging. Our drones detect deer across fields, timber, and thick cover—giving you a clear, real-time count of the bucks, does, and fawns calling your land home.

BUCK-TO-DOE RATIO

Understanding your buck-to-doe ratio is crucial for effective herd management. We provide a precise breakdown to help you evaluate herd health, set harvest goals, and ensure long-term sustainability on your property.

GPS PIN DROP FOR EVERY DEER

Each deer located during the flight is marked with an exact GPS coordinate, delivered directly to your onX Hunt or Google Maps. This gives you instant, actionable intel for scouting, stand placement, and future tracking—right at your fingertips.

NON-INVASIVE. NO SCENT. NO PRESSURE.

Our aerial approach means no boots on the ground, no disruption to bedding areas, and no risk of spooking your herd. It’s a 100% scent-free, non-invasive method that gathers intel without leaving a trace—so your deer stay calm and patterns stay intact.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to help you understand how our drone herd analysis works—so you can make the best decision for your land and deer management goals.

What is a drone herd analysis?

A drone herd analysis uses aerial thermal and zoom technology to scan your property and deliver accurate data on deer count, buck-to-doe ratios, antlered bucks, and movement patterns—without disturbing the herd.

How accurate is the drone data?

Our drones use advanced thermal sensors and 200x zoom to detect deer even in thick cover or standing corn. While not every deer is guaranteed to be visible, the data is far more comprehensive than traditional scouting or cameras.

Will this spook or pressure the deer?

No. The drone flies high and silently, creating zero scent, noise, or ground disturbance. It’s 100% non-invasive and won’t alter deer behavior or movement patterns.

What kind of information will I receive?

You’ll receive a full breakdown of the number of deer observed, buck-to-doe ratios, images of all antlered bucks, GPS pins delivered to your onX Hunt or Google Maps, and optional thermal video footage and habitat overlays.

How much land can be scanned in one flight?

Our standard flight covers up to 100 acres. Additional acreage can be scanned at a per-acre rate, and multi-property packages are available.

How should I prepare for the flight?

Make sure we have clear access to the property, permission to launch from private land, and any helpful info like trail cam photos or property maps. Stay available by phone in case we need to confirm details before flight.

Do I need onX Hunt to use the GPS pins?

No, but it’s recommended. We deliver GPS pins compatible with both onX Hunt and Google Maps, so you can use whichever tool you prefer for viewing and planning.

When is the best time of year to run a herd analysis?

We run flights year-round, but late summer, early fall, and post-season are ideal for identifying bucks, planning harvest strategy, or evaluating winter survival.

What does it cost and how do I book?

Our standard package starts at $300 for up to 100 acres, with additional acreage and optional add-ons available. Call or text (740) 277-8858 or fill out our booking form—we’ll send you a confirmation and payment link once scheduled.
