RE: New Hunt Club - how much, rules?? help!
Thanks for all the input on setting up a hunt club. Lots of good ideas already. The property is west of Little Rock about an hour and the guy wants $4 per acre. Really, thanks for your ideas, and I'll keep looking for even more. Oh, there is a small cabin we can use, does that do anything to the price? The owner said we could trim branches, etc, but no major clearing. There are a few spots we can put some food plots, too. I think that's about it -- I really like the idea of the fewer rules the better - you're right, we want to enjoy the outdoors, not think like a lawyer. And the rule to not let the guys who don't put in work hours not hunt the first week is sounds good to me, as well as putting a little money penalty to motivate people to show up for work days. Besides, isn't that a big part of hunting -- the planning and preparation for the hunt? I just like being out with buddies, and most of them are great, it's just the one or two that cause problems now and then. So all this is just to keep those one or two guys in line so they don't spoil it for the rest of it. And yes, if they still try to dodge the rules and intent of the club, well, maybe they need to hunt somewhere else. Hey --thanks for all the ideas, and that's after just one day from posting my question -- great forum!!
