No QDM. Too much "If it's brown it's down " for my tastes. I wish our guys would give the young bucks a break, but if the neighbors don't practice QDM then you are just growing deer for someone else.

We usually replace 3-4 members each year.

Of 16 members , only 4 of us are not "locals". I would love to see more out of towners in the club to take a little pressure off of the game.

It's hard to compete with club members that live 20 mi. away when you live 200 mi. away.

killsumptin,
I dont know how long you have been with this lease, but if you have been in it for a year or more , see if you can suggest a rule change on the younger bucks at the next meeting of members.
Like A NO spike Rule, This can be done, Only exception would be for a Youth
1st time deer and only 1 ever for that youth .
Another I have seen is makeing a Rule that if the buck is not a certain size
Example ... Say a 4 on one side ( Then you cant take it ).
I've seen other hunt clubs adopt a Rule if you shoot a small buck..
Then you mount it ,( No matter what the size is) Or pay a fine ranging from
$250.00 up ! to the club . This money is set in a fund that can be used Only
for Food Plotts and or Blind re-building if y'all have them on the lease.
But you have to have ALL members following these rules, including the president and his or her friends.

Do y'all have to check in your deer with the Club, and take pictures to document the harvest ?... ( This is a good one )
This is yet another way to cut down on the takeing of small deer...
ANYONE breakng any of the Rules is Grounds for termination of a members
rights to hunt said lease " With Out Refund of Money" And Or a Heavy fine to be Paid to the Club Fund ...

I know where your comming from being far from the property you Hunt
But in order to better your deer herd some rules need to be set in Stone
And Followed BY ALL... Any infraction can be grounds for termination, Fines
Or Both ...

How much is your yearly lease ?
I may or may not be interested, this depends on the $$$
Where is it located ,State and county ?

One other question..
What are the Doe to Buck population on this property,
And do y'all take out any Mature does ..Not imature does
What is your Doe limett ?

Thanks

Your' preachin' to the choir! No QDM for our "Good Ole Boys".
It's hard enough keeping the neighbors and poachers off of the place.
It's my 3rd year in the club (founding member) and the rules change(for the worse) each year. Now, what was a no dog lease has been opened up to limited dog hunting.

I'm a bow hunter and this is defenitely not my style.

But if your'e still interested:

2300 acres
16 members
7 mi. south of Folkston, Ga.( Charleton County )Adjoining the Okeefenokee National Wildlife Refuge
$890.00 yr.
1st. yr we took 120 Does & 30 Bucks
2nd yr 130 Does and ??? Bucks
This year ???. But I think the numbers are down due to the harvest the two previous years.
2 Buck , 3 Doe limit.

Each member is allowed 3 permanent stands and must establish their own food plots.(Basically you pay to hunt, the club does nothing for the members)

Rustic camp site provided

I am currently looking for something closer to home, but if I can't find anything I'll stay with this club till I do find something.

On a positive note: The turkey hunting is excellent, and there aren't as many turkey hunting members as there are deer hunting members.

kill, If ya'll shot 30 bucks on 2300 acres you must be shooting immature bucks. Sounds like you have some acreage to do some qdm, need some direction. Get together with surrounding land owners. Surprisingly they will go along. I did with one 180ac tract and we are seeing better deer there every year.

Goat23, sounds like prime land you got. I'm trying to "cut" about 7-10 acres from my family land and then I hope to see Deer out the front and Fish in the back.

BCW, if I shot every deer that came within 100 yds of my stands while I was sittin, I would have shot 150-200 deer. I had 28 deer in front of my one afternoon. I was looking for Mr. Big.
