About 2 for me as well Sasquatch - one instate in Marengo county - unbelievable property - hunted for several years - best deer and Turkey I ever been on. Came w ton of drama and 2 sets of rules - one for the members and one for the president
One out of state was probably the best - never seen this setup before - thought it was totally stupid - until I tried it. They gave each member 2 areas that only that member could go in - so u were actually managing your own land nobody else could hunt - they also had club plots r community areas everybody could sign out - by third year I was thriving there - only u could screw up your own areas
Pretty cool idea. I have hunted public land off and on my whole life but about 25 years ago quit all the club drama and went public land only...........and shot 3 of my best 5 bucks on it. I actually prefer public land, it can be very good if you put in the time scouting, which I like to do anyway. Most clubs I was in were very heavily pressured, actually more than public land.
