Trophy Red Stag Hunt
More about us
- Stoney Point Lodge has been a hunting destination since the 1940s — making it one of the oldest continuously operating hunting properties in America. When Marc Hightower acquired the operation, he inherited over half a century of land history and built on it, introducing the strongest purebred New Zealand Red Stag genetics in the United States and elevating the experience to what it is today. Eight decades of tradition on 2,500 acres of Ozark Mountains ground. No outfitter in America can tell that story.
- 100% Purebred New Zealand Genetics — The Gold Standard
- Not all red stag operations are equal. Many American outfitters run Yugoslavian or mixed European bloodlines. Every animal here are 100% New Zealand genetics — the gold standard for trophy red stag anywhere in the world. Massive frames, heavy tines, and the scoring potential that defines a true record-class animal. In fact, outfitters across the country source from us to improve their own herds. Here, you hunt the source.
- SCI Record Book Results
- Multiple stags from us are already ranked in the SCI record books, with several poised to challenge for the top spot. The genetics are here. The management is here. The results speak for themselves.
- No Harvest, No Pay — We Back It Up
- If you don't take a shot, you don't owe us a dollar. That's how confident we are in this herd and this operation.
- One-on-One Guided. All-Inclusive. No Shortcuts.
- Every hunt is fully guided one-on-one across 2,500 acres of Ozark ridge country, hardwood draws, and spring-fed valleys. Lodging, home-cooked meals, licenses, field care, and game prep are all included. Rifle, bow, muzzleloader, or crossbow — your hunt, your way, with fair-chase ethics at the core of everything we do.
- Stoney Point Lodge — Five Stars in the Heart of Hunting Country
- When the day is done, you come back to something worth coming back to. Five private guest rooms, a three-bedroom guest house, home-cooked meals prepared from scratch daily, a 40-acre stocked lake, a 1,200+ yard shooting range, and a stone fireplace where the stories get better every night. This is the hunt — and everything around it.
- Built for Every Hunter
- Whether it's your first shoulder mount or another entry in the SCI record books, our guides build the hunt around you. They're hunters who live this life year-round. They share not just the pursuit but the knowledge behind how we manage this land — so you leave with more than a trophy.

Big Game
Missouri’s big game species include White-tailed deer, Wild turkey, and limited hunts for Black bear and Elk. There is no general “hunting license” that covers big game – instead, hunters purchase permits for each species and season.
Deer hunting permits are available over the counter for most seasons and areas. Residents and non-residents may buy Archery Deer permits and Firearms Deer permits (which are divided into “Any-Deer” and “Antlerless Deer” hunting permits). If targeting Antlerless deer, non-residents also need to buy one of the “Any-Deer” or “Managed deer” licenses.
Missouri’s archery deer permit allows taking two deer (only one antlered), while firearms deer permits generally allow one deer.
Some areas are restricting Deer harvest and are accessible only by drawing.
Turkey permits are available over-the-counter for both spring and fall seasons.
Black bear hunting in Missouri is newly established and is managed by a lottery draw available only for residents. Likewise, Elk hunting in Missouri is extremely limited and for residents only – a handful of elk permits are given out via lottery each year.
Small Game
Missouri requires a Small Game Hunting Permit for hunting small game (upland birds, small mammals, etc.) which can be purchased over-the-counter.
In addition, Missouri requires a Migratory Bird Hunting Permit for hunting migratory birds like Doves, Waterfowl, Snipe, and Woodcock and a Federal Duck Stamp for waterfowl hunters.
Furbearers (such as bobcat, fox, coyote) may be hunted with a Small Game permit, but to trap furbearers or sell pelts a separate Trapping Permit is required.
Documents Needed
- Small Game Hunting Permit
- Big Game Permits (Deer/Turkey)
- Migratory Bird Permit
- Federal Duck Stamp
- Conservation ID – allows multiple permits to be carried on a single plastic card
- Hunter Education Card
Minimum Hunter Age
Missouri’s minimum hunting age is 11 (hunters under 11 cannot be certified in hunter education). Youth ages 6 through 15 may purchase youth permits (at reduced prices) for deer and turkey but those aged 6–11 must hunt in the immediate presence of a licensed adult mentor. Youth hunters ages 12–15 must either be accompanied by a licensed adult or have completed hunter education to hunt alone.
