I know club dues vary from place to place based on many things and some folks seem to have deep pockets when it comes to paying them. I was just curious of where the breaking point is, in what you pay for what you expect. For example, what do you expect more out of an $800.00 club versus a $600.00 club? $1000.00 versus $800.00? So on and so on.

It's entertainment. You can't put a price on a good time, but you can feel ripped off on a bad time.

Do you want to hear him gobble, or do you want to kill him.

I'm sure many have been.
I personally chose to pay less this year to hunt a place where I could take my boys and let them have a chance to shoot and see lots of deer.
Its not managed as well as my last club, but is a target rich environment.

This year i am doing 1 of each. My small lease cost me $300 for my part plus any planting we want to do. Ends up being $500. Its a small track of land but there are some huge bucks on it. I also have to deal with trespassors and night hunters.
The other one cost me more than want to admit but its 3600 acres in camden and its the nicest property i have hunted. 11 members and only a few of us hunt seriously. Tons of deer and big bucks to boot. Camp house isnt the best but its only for sleeping. I hope i can afford to be a member every year.

I want a club with low membership numbers with simple rules. Maybe 1 hunter per 200 or more acres. Low guest numbers.
