It's a new pay to play hunt club in Skagit Valley.  The question being asked is if anyone is a member or has tried them out.

Membership fee doesn't seem to bad but I would be interested to know what the fee to hunt each property is and what the availabilities really are.

Tagging along to see if anyone chimes in that has used them.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

I remember hearing something about this set up.
After looking at the website- pretty sure I am going to puke.
I am sure there will be a bunch of people who think this is great- but not me. If this is where we are headed, I feel like my son will never experience real hunting in the future. I Hate what is happening (happened) to this sport!
I am surprised there is not an option to purchase individual birds with the field you rent? "I'll book field six, with a couple of snows, three mallards and two hen greenwings..."

Flame away on me all you want- but this just feels dirty...

I am not a waterfowl guy but, I agree with your sentiment on this. Feels dirty.  :yeah:
Just tend your own and live.

I think its the way things are headed.  More and more land owners, of even marginal hunting property are getting leased up by outfits who want to make a few $.  If the property is even near decent ground, they are leasing it up to prevent others from hunting it and possibly calling ducks and geese off of their clients.  They may never even hunt said property, but they lease it up all the same.

I predict California styles rules and pricing. Look at how expensive duck clubs are down there, and how many rules the reserves have...it's coming for us as well, only a matter of time when.

I don't see any problem with it, the price seems like a very reasonable way to get access to some private property without having to find it and knock on doors.  The only thing I wonder is how good the properties are and how many people they let on per day.

OK, I just looked a bit deeper and you do get exclusive access, but it looks like you have to pay twice?  Once for the "membership" and then again for each hunt.  So, the 3 hunt membership may cost you $100 per hunt.  Maybe not a bad deal if you can split the cost of the hunts.
