Herd Analysis

See exactly what’s using your ground — bucks, does, turkeys, and predators — mapped from the air with real thermal data instead of guesswork.

Manage Your Ground With Real Data

We run full-property thermal flyovers to count and age-class your herd, pinning bucks, does, and fawns on an aerial map of your land. Rather than relying on trail camera guesswork or a handful of daylight sightings, you get a complete picture of what’s actually moving across your property in a single night.

A herd analysis flight covers more than just deer. Along with your buck-to-doe ratio, we also track turkey numbers and predator activity on the property, so landowners and hunting clubs get a full wildlife picture — not just a headcount.

The result is a marked-up aerial map showing exactly where and what we found, giving you the information to make real management decisions: harvest goals, food plot placement, predator control, or simply knowing what’s really out there before season.
