RE: VA hunting club
Ok guys heres the deal. since i am getting alot of response for info on the hunt club heres some info. i will be responding to your pms as well. we had a good club going in the orange area until the parcels of land we were renting were sold. i have alot of experience in running a succesful club. what we are going to do is lease a few different parcels of land which consist of farm land,tree farm, and harwood/ swamp land. we are going to designate one parcel to strictly dog hunting for group club hunting and we will have bow only areas as well. i want people that are intrested in more than just a one season membership. i dont mean you have to pay in advance for multiyear memberships, i mean i want you to be commited to harvesting the best animals possible and to do that it means selective harvesting the animals (buck to doe ratio) so we insure quality animals to be there the following year. there will be size limits depending on the areas so we can accomplish this. now the pieces of land we are in the process of getting have little or no hunting pressure and hold alot of deer right now. what we want to do is to build on the quality animals that are there. we will share meat when hunting as a group with either dogs or man drives. 4 wheelers are allowed and encouraged since some of the areas are huge. all the land will be posted tight and every member will have keys to all gates for the hunting areas. we will also be putting up permanent box blinds in certain areas and they must be shared so its fair. we will also be doing food plots which will consist of a bio logic blend and native sources of food such as soybeans,alfalfa,clovers,corn etc. if you have kids getting into the sport we encourage you to bring them so they can enjoy the hunting as well and we will be having a youth hunt only a couple times during the season so we can make sure our young hunters have a succesful season as well. the membership fees are not set in stone yet since i am still working to finalize the lease deal but it looks like it will be around 300.00 to 500.00 a year. all of your money goes into a club account and all money goes into the club for the lease,food plots,maintaining the land blinds,etc. their will be a monthly expense report sent out to all members so they can see exactly what their money is being used for. safety is our number one goal so we need to see hunter safety certificates for all youth hunters. we will also have a out building on one of the proprties for skinning the deer. if you have any further questions then give me a call 540-286-2408 this is a first come deal so call me and we will put you on the list. there will be a cut off number so dont hesitate if your intrested.
