The deer numbers are very high. That’s just my own personal observation based on the Hunt Logs that I filled out after every hunt. The biologist wanted us to kill 20 does each of the the first 3 years I was up here. The last two years he wanted us to kill 15 does. We never come close to those numbers. As I said, this is a low pressure hunting club.
One of the 2 owners rarely hunts. He loves coming to camp to socialize, loves to cook, have a drink and a cigar on the porch and watch football. He’s killed 1 doe in the five years I’ve known him. The other owner loves to hunt and has hunted all over N America and Southern Africa. At his age and experience level, he is very selective. This year he and his adult son hunted together and his son shot a mature buck. It’s the first deer I’ve seen this owner kill since I joined. I eat venison. I generally shoot 4 deer a year. We can’t eat more than that. We have a Dr who drives over from his home in Meridian once or twice a weekend with one of his kids. Usually in the afternoon. He shot a nice buck this year. I think he killed a doe last year. There are 2 guys from Tuscaloosa who’ve been friends forever. They’ve hunted here for over 20 years. They work hard on keeping the property hunt ready including countless hours on a tractor. Between the 2 of them they haven’t killed more than 10 deer in the 5 years I’ve known them.
This is an issue the owners addressed this year. They realize it’s hard to sell a club with low kill numbers. That is why I posted pics on FB of dead deer and trail cam pics. The deer (and bucks) are here.

I missed this message. North Sumpter Hunt Club must be a closed group that you have to be invited to join. I’m not sure why people are having difficulties finding the FB page. I obviously don’t understand everything I know about the issue. When I type in North Sumter Hunt Club on FB it comes right up. The page is public. Maybe because it’s a “Group” page? If there are any members here that can help me resolve the issue I would appreciate the assist.
