Remington270, you're right! But I'm sure there are some clubs with one member-one weapon. One day, that will be my most desired hunting club. But most of us are dads with kids in the younger or teenage years, so that is how we chose the rules. Because we have family members (but limited to school kids) hunting, we limit the guests days. I think it's hard to have a liberal guests policy AND have too many family members hunting on one membership.
We counter our family member allowance with limited guests. And no guests in January. I think liberal guests rules hurts hunting clubs. If a guest kills a 2 yr old buck at my club, the antlers are property of the hunting club and the sponsoring member gets his arse fined hard!
