RE: South/Eastern NY Hunting Clubs?????????????
We've chatted on here and through PM's before.
I belong to two clubs down in southern NY; one in Orange county that releases a small quantity of pheasants almost every week of the season, but they have a 20 mi. restriction on new members. I've been grandfathered in, so I'm not affected, but I think that you would be out of range for that one.
The second club is based just outside of Poughkeepsie, NY and has a property there that they release pheasant on 4-5 times a season and they also have two or three other properties for deer hunting in Highland, Schoharie and Schroon Lake. They have monthly meetings (1st Thursday) from Sept. until June and you are required to attend almost all of the meetings and participate in a number of work hours each year. There are openings for this club available, but you would have to be sponsored by someone and their ass will be on the line for you.
Let me know if you are interested.
