1173.0. "Looking for Hunting Club" by ASDG::SHOEMAKER () Tue Jul 28 1992 18:21

    I am looking for a hunting club in or around the town I live in.
    I am located in Bristol N.H. which is in the lakes region of New
    Hampshire at the southern tip of Newfound lake.
    
    I have a new Golden pup and would like to use a clubs facilities
    in aid to his training.  I did this back in Minnesota with my last
    Golden and it worked great.  Not to mention all the other beni's
    that a hunting club provides.
    
    I have checked with all the local vets, sporting goods stores,and even
    the DNR in the area.  But nobody knows of any.
    
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    
    Thanks in advance...

    re hunting clubs
    
    Hunting clubs in general are not very popular around here, neither
    is leased land for hunting. New Hampshire hunting tends to be on
    either public land (national forest), farms that F&G stock on,
    or private land that you knock on the door for permission.
    
    One hunting club I do know about is SKat Shooting preserve. It is 
    in New Ipswhich and has trap/skeet/sporting clays as well as stocked
    hunting for members. I have no idea on the price but dogs are 
    required, they have memberships and also you can go for a day. 
    I believe they stock pheasant, quail, Hungarian partridge and maybe
    others. I also believe that you cannot hunt what is not stocked.
    In other words, if you are out pheasant hunting and jump a 
    woodcock, you can't shoot him.
    
    I know there is also one in Grafton MA, long ride for you, but
    its there.
