I am going to have an opening this year. May have a couple more, but that's still up in the air.

1050 acres. Have 11 guys right now. Dues are $1,200. Some of the guys are willing to pay more and have less members, as am I. Preference given to someone who can trap yotes or has a big tractor with a bucket/forks.

The 411. I took over the lease last year. I don't get a free membership. I don't make money off the lease. The rules for me are the same rules for everyone else. We limed 3 years ago, and I had a load of bulk lime dellivered last fall that I need to see about putting out.

I have more fields than stand sites. I have multiple established clover fields. I did alot of periennial clover last fall, but I don't know how that will shake out yet this spring due to the really cold weather from December. The established fields I had have all bounced back. I have already ordered my late spring summer mix I am going to plant in some area's. I fertilize properly, my soil test calls for Urea and DAP. I am probably going to let some of the small area's I plant go this fall.

I joined 5 years ago. I started a spring time planting out there, and then started the transition to clover a couple years ago. Our quality has gone up, we saw more good bucks last year than we have seen. I changed the buck rule to 3.5 or older this year. Doe limit is 2 for the member. Under 18 kids can kill 1 buck and 1 doe. Doe's cannot be killed off a greenfield. I increased the fines for improper deer kill. All deer/turkey kills must send photo to President (me) and jawbone and harvest tag submitted. I think the doe population in the area is low. I could be wrong. Very limited guest policy. Guest kills come off member limits. Lease is divided into sections for turkey season. You can check out 2 at a time. Exception on bucks is if a kid or guest kills one of the posted cull bucks.

Lease next to me is same size and they run a similar management program. 3.5 or older bucks, they shoot a small number of doe's. We get along and check in throughout the year. I think we have a Yote problem. One of my members is trapping them, he's gotten 2 so far. I trap coons/possums and he does that too.

Plans for this year. I need to construct some shooting houses. I plant to plant some screening around some of the fields. The biggest issue we have had is the previous leaseholder liked to put stands right on top of fields. I want to try to plant some switchgrass or create some additional bedding. I have a log deck I need to clear and want to plant, and I have a couple fields I need to expand, hence the need for a big tractor with a bucket. About half the lease was thinned last year. I have a section slated for clear cutting in 2024. I have 4 pine thickets, probably 300 acres or more, that haven't been thinned at all, and a big hardwood bottom and some creeks running thru.

Be happy to show the lease on a weekend. My plan is to move towards less members, higher dues, and better quality. I have been working towards this for about 4 years now. The food plots and having annual qualiity food was the number 1 issue. Then moving away from killing a doe off a green field. This year the buck rule was changed. Baiting isn't allowed since its a Westervelt lease.

Update. I have responded to the pm's I believe. We are now at 10 members, and the consensus is to stay there. Due's would be $1,400/yr, for deer and turkey. I let eveyone know they needed first payment in by the end of the month or I was going to replace them. I will go on a first come first served basis.

I’m confused. It’s legal to deer hunt over corn in Alabama with a license. Are you saying Westervelt goes against this law?

Westervelt does not allow baiting on their lands.


Used to be a lifeguard, until that blue kid got me fired.

Property owners can set any restrictions they want on tracts that they lease. No different than bow hunt only leases when firearm hunting is perfectly legal by state law.
