What on Earth do you all need that many rules for? If someone is being an a-hole, kick them out. If someone is being unsafe, kick them out. Otherwise, just be courteous to each other.

Select a tract of land you like buy it (get a couple buddies or family you can deal with), manage it, enjoy it, and quit wasting money on leases and assholes.

Also in 10-15 years you still have your paid of property.

This. It’s very easy to find quality hunting land for real cheap. For you and a couple of buddies to hunt all you’ll need is about 500 hundred acres. Shouldn’t be more than 1.5-2 million dollars. Which you can finance of course, you’ll just need a few hundred grand for the down payment. Then you’ll need a camp, equipment for the up keep, stands, food plots, etc. But so what. At least you won’t be wasting your time and money on a lease.

No alcohol on the club. Now, I would assume that some people had alcohol in their camps but you didn't bring it in the open where anyone could see.


I wouldn't be in that club. If I want to sit around a fire and drink until I have enough with my buddies that's my business. Doesn't matter if I don't go hunting in the morning. My dues are paid. We never had any problems though. I hunt with all my friends from high school and the rest is family.

You seem to be scoffing at the idea that less rules are better and common sense and common courtesy should be the guide. Why is that?.

Because people will push the limits no matter what. You really cannot anticipate what guys will do thinking their actions have no effect on others. What you think is the line on courtesy, others disagree with. If you're fine with a complete free for all, by all means have few or no rules. I want no part of that after seeing it in real life.

I hunt my own property in Texas. I hunted for 7 years in a camp in Mississippi and it was absolutely annoying. Being from Louisiana I was blamed for everything that happened because hey lets blame the coon arse. The best thing to do is find smaller tracts of land and only hunt with like minded people otherwise it will take the fun out of the hunting experience.

That's fine, but understand that some people aren't comfortable with people drinking around firearms in close proximity to their kids. To each their own.

To be honest, that's the default position for every North Louisiana hunter too.

And it's even worse with family because you still have to see them at gatherings and funerals.

Some people are super competitive about hunting. They will break any rules to stay "ahead" of other people. In the past we had issues with people shooting all their deer in the first week and then being so bored the rest of the season they end up bothering everyone else by riding around.

If you hunt at all, you already do.

on point.

i hunt with 6 people that i love and cherish, not strangers. Dad, brothers, BIL, nephews etc. There are plenty of times we get pretty agitated at each other. Of course we get over it, but it's hard to get people to agree over which deer to shoot, how many does, what time to get to stands, joyriding, shooting for recreation,.....but our biggest issue is, where and where not to put up stands.

we make it all work, but i can't imagine having those same and worse issues with a bunch of guys i dont know.

Draw each morning, #1 gets his first choice of locations and so on. Wake up late, you get what’s left. Only fair way to do it imho.


Until they start waking up at midnight and signing out to the 'better' stand locations.

People that place loud arse pipes on their trucks and put on those bright arse lights. Those people should be excluded from hunting licenses.
