I heard one of the PCHC officers say one morning if "it's mostly brown, it's down". He had just finished skinning one that still had spots.

Hunted paint creek as a guest when I was 18. Heard a turkey gobble on a 26 degree morning while fee hunting but saw zero deer. Point me!

Actually herd two on that December morning now that the memory has been jogged.

Raegan is posting ads all on FB looking for members. Claims to have 5400 acres now. Wonder if he picked up the rest of the old Paint Creek property?

It says some is on lay and some is next to the wma. I’m guessing he got some of paints old land and some of the wma that they lost.

I hunted in Paint Creek for 1 year. Saw a pig. No deer and no turkey! I don't blame him for shooting a spotted fawn...I may have been tempted. Lol. I'm joking but that was a LONG season!

I killed 3 deer the year I was in paint and shot another nice buck but pretty sure it was a leg hit. The rest of the club killed 17-20 deer that year with a lot of them never seeing a deer. It was a bad club.

For those saying the hunting in the Paint Creek/God's Country/Backwaters HC area was terrible - how long ago did you hunt it? The Backwaters land looked awesome in February when I toured it - really nice green fields with deer tracks and turkey crap everywhere. Seemed to have it together with the 3.5 rule, feeding program, restricted ATV/truck access to the property, ~130 acre/member, etc. I usually stay off the greenfields and hunt longer and harder than most others so if there's good deer there, I believe I can find and kill them. If they're not there though, I'm just screwed! LOL!

If you hunt hard you can kill a deer but it’s been 12 years since I hunted it actually.

Well how'd your deer season go ?

Gene and Ragan have flooded the Web all Winter looking for members and are still at it. So I'm guessing not Good😆

Where are those 2 clubs at ? I've been looking for a 2nd club and I spoke with a guy that's running a club near the dam. Sounded like a pretty good club.

Look at Southeastern, Its just across the road from the old golf course

I didn't get down there much due to work and hunting closer to home with my son. There were some good deer killed by those who hunted it more. A good portion of two of the properties were logged during the year and that limited the property though. I will say that the turkey hunting is really good. I went once early season and didn't get on them but then went back twice near season end and the turkeys seemed to be everywhere. Lots of pigs too. I didn't get back into the club this year but it's mostly because my schedule didn't allow me to get down there enough to be worth my money. I didn't have any problems with Ragan - seemed to be a quality guy and treated me well.
