Quaker Neck Gun Club
has been practicing Quality Deer Management
in conjunction with our Kent County cooperative
for over a decade. Numerous mature bucks
and does are harvested annually. We have
a minimum 15” inside spread rule
for bucks (one per weapon) being harvested
and very liberal doe limits (10) in accordance
with our state regulations. Violations
of our spread rule are subject to a maximum
of $100.00 per point fine.
Both permanent and portable (screaming
eagle) stands with 16’-20’
walking sticks are used to put you on
the deer.
Our year around habitat management programs
includes over two dozen green fields planted
with clover, alfalfa and brassicas. Large
blocks of warm season grasses have been
planted creating additional bedding and
comfort zones. Annual food plots made
up of standing corn, sorghum, wheat and
barley are also planted. These standing
crops provide winter food sources and
create corridors across and between our
hunting areas. Sanctuary areas have been
set aside on each farm creating a safe
haven for the deer. |
