| I used to belong to a hunting club deep on the eastern shore but I got out of it back in '97. I want to get back into it now. Are there any members here that would like to get together and either join a hunting club as a group or go hunting out on state lands? I ask now, because before I know it, it'll be hunting season. |

Yes. Some farmers let hunter on their prop to stop and or control crop damage. Some do it for what ever reason you agree on with him. Think time share with guns and dead tasty critters on the grill. |
Yes, you find someone like a farmer (or anyone, for that matter) with lots of land who wouldnt mind renting it out to a club for $ for the 2 weeks of hunting season. Its best if the farmer knows someone in the "club", but as long as club members abid by the farmers rules and take care of the property by not driving on muddy ground, not damage fences, etc, etc, (you know what I mean), there shouldnt be any problems. One thing to keep in mind is that not all of Maryland allows rifle. Personally, I think rifle is the only way to go. Any opinions on the matter?

If you don't mind having an inexperienced hunter along (who is nonetheless a safe and competent gunhandler), I could be interested. |
It's a bit of a drive (3 hours) but the Savage Resavoure(sp) in garret county is a pretty good spot. I have found it best to go mid week during the season. every time I whent I do not think I ran into more than 2 people and that was at the trail head on the way out. Very quiet and very hilly. The spot where I usually go is pretty deserted most of the time if not all. This area is best hunted in small to meadium (2-10) groups due to the terain and such. They also have a range abit better than Elk Neck. The camping is spretty good. And foe thoughs on the tender side there is a Holiday Inn close by off of the Interstate. ETA: There are alot of state lands you can hunt on. But I usually like to goto western Maryland. |
