What Are the Most Affordable Duck Hunting Outfitters in Tennessee?
By Quick answerElk River Outfitters prices a guided duck hunt at $250 a hunter per day — the lowest number on this page — but that rate is for teal only, bookable during a single five-day window, September 12 through 16. Any other week, the real floor is $300 a hunter per day at Fowlers Point Guiding Service, with no species restriction across the full season. Neither number yet includes a tag or a license.

How we rank: Outfitters are ranked by a credibility-weighted rating that blends each outfitter's verified Google star rating with how many reviews back it up — so a strong average from many hunters outranks the same average from only a few — then by the breadth of duck packages they offer (live inventory, last updated August 2026). Prices, ratings and review counts come straight from each outfitter's current listings — always confirm details before you book.
Why the top-ranked outfitter isn't the cheapest one
G2G Hunting tops the ranking below, but that list runs on trust, not price: it weighs a rating against how many hunters backed it up, so a handful of five-star reviews can't outrank a deeper track record. G2G's own packages start well above that floor. Cheapest and most trusted are different questions, and this page only answers the first one.
The price table below skips the actual floor
That table only counts flat, multi-day packages, not day rates, so a per-hunter, per-day number like the two above won't show up anywhere in it — read the unit before comparing two prices.
A day rate and a flat price aren't the same number
Some of these packages bundle meals, lodging, and a guide into one price; a bare day rate often doesn't. Before booking the cheapest number on the page, confirm what it buys — a blind for the day, or the whole trip.

Been duck hunting with Homra’s Guide Service for several years now and it never disappoints…
Waterfowl Outfitters is an amazing place to go duck hunting. Our group has shot some of the most ducks in one day with these guys. Kyle and his crew are very experienced in guiding and calling ducks…
