We hunt 28 different fields, across 2
counties, totaling over 4,000 acres. Our variety of locations
allows us to hunt where the birds are. The Torino staff not
only provides daily guided hunts but we're always scouting
the area to provide you with the best hunt possible.
Guides will set out large decoy spreads and are all excellent callers.
Each Guide has years of waterfowl hunting experience. We will provide you with
some of the best waterfowl memories you will ever encounter.
The pits are well hidden, spacious, and heated for your hunting comfort.
We offfer layout blinds for maximum flexibility.

I want to again thank all involved for a very memorable hunt. Ya'll took the time to find birds when
the pickin's were very slim and put us in a great setup to see and shoot (or attempt to) many geese.
Ya'll have a top notch hunt club with great hospitality. I never expected to be treated as well as our group was,
but all of you went out of your way to make sure our trip was enjoyable. I WILL definitely be back and look
forward to more good cooking. I have no doubts Torino Hunt Club will be the top spot to visit in ALL of Illinois,
especially for geese. THANKS AGAIN!!!!
"Kevin Stratton" 12/2/06 - TWO days in a row WOW. Limits both days + geese + Banded Drake!
What a hoot - What a Shoot! Thanks.

THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN ON THE GREAT GOOSE HUNT THAT YOU YOU SHOWED MY FATHER,
BILL, MY BROTHER BOB, AND I TODAY. THE THREE OF US HAVE HAD MANY GREAT
HUNTING AND FISHING EXPERIENCES TOGETHER, AND THIS HUNT WILL STAY IN MY
MEMORY WITH THE REST OF THEM.
SINCE I STARTED WATERFOWL HUNTING 40 YEARS AGO AT THE AGE OF 5 OR 6, I HAVE
GOOSE HUNTED IN SOUTHERN ILLINOIS, AND WISCONSIN, AND NEVER HAVE HAD THE
GEESE COME INTO THE DECOYS AS WELL AS THEY DID TODAY. GREAT PITS AND
EQUIPTMENT, NOT TO MENTION YOUR HOSPITALITY. I WILL HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOUR
CLUB TO ANYONE INTERESTED.
OUR GUIDE BRENT WAS A GREAT PERSON TO HAVE IN THE PIT WITH US. WE ENJOYED
HIS CONVERSATION, AND KNOWLEDGE. BETWEEN THE FOUR OF US, WE KILLED 8 GEESE
WITH 9 SHOTS, I WAS THE ONE WHO TOOK 2 SHOTS ON ONE GOOSE. PRETTY GOOD
SHOOTING BY ANYONES STANDARDS.
THANK YOU AGAIN FOR THE GREAT SHOOT, AND LOOK FORWARD TO COMING BACK.
The team from Illinois Outdoors had to say...
Rich Komar, Ron Miltzow and I got to hunt for geese at the Torino Hunt Club in Gardner, IL on Wednesday (12/14)
The hunting was fantastic and the birds never stopped coming. There were thousands upon thousands of them.
Rich got a quick limit with one shot. YES, two birds with one shot. We thought that to be really something
but within about 10 minutes, our guide, did the same thing. In neither case was it blind shooting into a flock
of 50 birds. In Rich's case, only two birds came to our decoys. For our guide, three came in.
Watch for this show to be on Illinois Outdoors later this month.
Visit Illinois Outdoors for more great information.

creatures these birds are! Enjoy the fun of God's creation!

Thanks for a great hunt at your first class hunt club. The accomodations
were excellent, our guide Dane was outstanding and everything afterwards was a real bonus. I will not hesitate
to recommend your club to anyone in the future. Thanks again and please pass my thanks and a hat and coat along
to Dane. Have a great Christmas.
