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.

I don’t have Facebook so I can’t view it. Probably like other folks.

Well that makes sense. The only thing the FB page has that ALDEER doesn’t is pics of the camp and a few deer pics.

We’ve been at 8 for a year now.

- Two left last year to find a club with better genetics. The club they joined shot zero bucks this year. Waiting on the B & C buck.
- One left to hunt turkeys.
- One decided to hunt with his son in Kentucky

How are the deer numbers in that area now? Just curious based on what y’all killed seems low for 4000 acres. Used to be a lot of deer in that area. Good luck finding the members you need. North Sumter has always been one of the best deer hunting areas in the state. Always been some big bucks in that area. Killed my biggest about 5 miles east of y’all in Sumterville

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.

“How many bucks/does did y’all kill last year?” was an earlier question in the thread. I’ve been this lease for two consecutive years having the opportunity to shoot more than a dozen does and two bucks each year. I am retired Army and for me the biggest thrill is watching the deer walk through the kill box and knowing if I wanted to I could. I also carry a nice DSLR camera enjoying the images. Wouldn’t most people agree whatever lease you are a part of you make it what you want.

I missed this message. North Sumpter Hunt Club must be a closed group that you have to be invited to join.
