But what if the objective is have fun and be safe? If those are your only objectives then you shouldn’t have rules other than to follow the law.

Life is a journey. Make sure and bring plenty of Beer.
My luck has been so bad lately, it could be raining pussies and I'd catch one with a dick broke off in it.

Rule #1. No selfish behavior.
If everyone abides, it all works out.
Biggest thing is having like minded people when it comes to harvesting deer. We only want 4.5 year olds and bigger harvested. We let 3.5 year old 8’s and 10’s walk all day. Small bone means nothing to any of us.
Hunting brings out the worst in people.

Actively feeding during season causes problems- we don't Running cameras during the season causes traffic- we don't run them. We don't have a doe quota- kill as many as you want to deal with....3 buck limit-guest bucks count against member total. Try to make sure a buck checks 3 of 4 boxes: 180#+ /8 pts/main beam at or beyond nose/ 4+ years old..We don't have a 3 yr old that would check 3 of 4 boxes. Mistakes happen on a buck and it is not the end of the world. I have made them. Youth can shoot a ALDCNR game law legal buck, just have to shoot a bigger one the next time. Guests are normally closely related family and their behavior /harvest is responsibility of the member. This seems to work for our group. To each club their own. Goes back to Brocks objectives, these guidelines reflect ours.

5 does per member but can kill more if another member donates one of theirs. Rarely happens. State limit on bucks as long as it meets club standards which is 12” minimum inside spread or 165 live weight. But we have a large club with close to 7K acres and 40 members. We've averaged about 76 deer per year over the last 4 years and averaged almost exactly 50% each sex over that time span. Worked pretty well for us. And we do enforce fines for sub-standard bucks.

Members split corn cost and we have club feeders. No does can be killed on feeders. You are free to bait up your own spot/ spots.
We don’t have a set rule on does. We just evaluate how many we kill in a year to year basis.
1 man decisions mostly but we vote if we need to. We only have 7 guys though and we generally all see eye to eye.
What about when Someone starts a (Private) Bait Pile? Is that Area Off Limits to other Members as that seems to be where a lot of issues arise.
