"I was not sure what to expect when I signed up but I was very happy that I did. I grew up duck hunting and I had been to the Stuttgart area many times but never for a "Medical Conference" and I had concerns that the conference part would grossly overshadow the hunting part. This was not the case, Ben and team struck the correct balance with education and the fun of a great hunting trip...there were strong lectures covering topics pertinent to the trip all given in a laid back format encouraging much group discussion but there was also the fun and camaraderie that you hope to find on a hunting trip. I can't say enough about the accommodations...The Cypress Point Duck lodge is a great venue!!! There was plenty of food and drink in a gorgeous and functional lodge...everyone from the guides to the cooks and cleaning were top notch. Looking forwards to next year...and looking into other trips put on by Wild Med Adventures....Scuba Diving anyone?!"
