we don't allow guest other than family members, and no coon or rabbit hunting, If they wanna coon or rabbit hunt they can go elsewhere. Theres tons of public land for that
The member in question should have cleared the coon hunt with you first, since you run the club. You in turn should run it past the other members if you feel its warranted. For him to do something like that without notifying anyone ahead of time is not cool in my opinion. I ran our club for over 20yrs and anything out of the ordinary was run past me and I in turn ran it past the other members first before it was done. Worked for us.
Just wanting some opinions on club rules about guests. We have a no guest policy during deer season, but allow guests(2 or 3) when the season ends to shoot hogs and coyotes. Recently, one of our members brought a pretty large group to coon hunt and some of the members are not happy about it, stating they didn't pay dues to allow folks to come and hunt for free. I'm the president of the club and we've always had "gentlemens rules"(not written). Never had an issue until now. I do have the required insurance, as per the timber company, and I need to look over the policy to see if there's any liability for anyone not listed. Wondering what other clubs rules are concerning this.
You need to look over your lease.We have leased from several timber companies and all require a list of anyone that can be on property. You have to send in a list before anyone not listed on the lease comes on the land. We had a neighbor that lost their lease because of this.Just wanting some opinions on club rules about guests.
