re: I was asked to leave the hunting club for not violating any rules

Be glad to be gone.

Club hunting is as much a personality match as anything for fellowship and camaraderie.

Nice deer! I've stopped shoulder mounting for years. That looks a lot better.

I would ping them again for more info if you're in the dark, so there isn't any bad blood. I've been in areas where it boils over and gets petty. If they try and poison the well for you with other clubs or land owners, you can always open a Wildlife agent tip line for those you know about who are skirting the, which every club has.
