What's the reputation of deer hunting on the Coosa County side of Lay Lake up near the dam? Any big deer been killed in that area recently?

I'd be interested to know as well, or what areas of Coosa are typically better. Quite a few clubs up that way and it would be pretty close to the house for me

I used to hunt there next to the lake. I killed the biggest deer of my life there. There wasn't as many, but they were big. I think they call that club, God's Country Hunting Club, now. The guy who use to run it had some problems. I believe a new group has it.

Like others have said, some nice bucks in that area but not what I would call really big. A 130” buck would be considered a real trophy by most in that area. Lots of turkey and snakes - of the rattler and cotton mouth variety.

Thanks all. I’ve joined a club in that area. Obviously a lot of turkey and the potential for some good bucks based on the pictures I’ve seen. The land, in general, looks great. And thanks for the heads-up, I’ll keep an eye out for the snakes!

I hunted that place years ago when it was Paint Creek HC. Absolute worst club I’ve ever been in. I saw 0 deer and heard 0 turkeys. Saw several deer with spots hanging from the skinning pole at the camp. I got out and joined Southeastern HC just across the road. A world of difference. Killed several nice bucks and a butt load of turkeys from SEHC.

There’s a huge difference in your old place and the area he’s talking about. I wouldn’t pay $300 to hunt most of that area. Made the mistake once never again.


Would walk over a naked woman to get to a gobblin turkey!

This man knows what he is talking about. I was in Paint Creek when Regan had it. (The year the fellow got killed in the camper fire.) It spoke volumes to me how the officers and longer-term members couldn't wait for the management area hunts. Zero deer and very few turkeys.

I was a member of SEHC 10 or 15 years ago. Place was covered up with turkeys back then. They cut most of it the year I got out.

I think Reagan now runs Backwater HC there. Claims it’s a QDMA club...ha ha ha. I personally saw him string up two deer one morning and both of them still had spots!!
