completely to quail hunting during the deer

Cooperation is the key to our relationship
with our property owners.
ESC and the property owners work
together to protect the rights of the
property owner and our hunting privileges.
When in doubt about what to do, honor
your commitment to ESC members to be a
responsible hunter.
Many of our members set stands, blinds, feeder’s
etc. Please respect that the member placed the
devices on the lease to enhance his hunt.
 It will be an ethics violation to disturb another
member’s property.
 The member is required to mark their property
with their name and membership number when
placing them on property.
 Placing a stand or blind does not prohibit another
member from sitting the stand when it is not
occupied by the owner.

Quail leases may only be hunted once per each
calendar month during the season.
 Quail leases may only be hunted a maximum
times of 3 hunting days per lease per season.
 The only exception for the 2011-12 hunting
season applies to the Johnson Lease. See the
lease cover sheet for more information.
 During times of extreme temperatures it is
recommended that you depart the lease early
enough to allow quail coveys to reform prior to
dark.

Generally speaking the utilization of offroad ATV/UTV style vehicles is prohibited
