The intention of Muddy Hollow Hunt Club is to provide a clean, friendly and family style hunt club to be able to go out and enjoy GODS great outdoors. This club is not about  politics, moaning, groaning and competition. We want this club to be a place of fellowship with like minded hunters and a place we can train our next generation hunters. This is not a trophy club but we do want to respect what we hunt and only kill what we can eat.

Fairfield Managed tract


The Fairfield tract will be a managed tract of Muddy Hollow Hunt Club to give its members who are wanting a place to let deer walk and shoot nice bucks and a place to practice management. The purpose of this tract is not to shoot the first buck that has 4 points on one side but to shoot mature bucks and does. This property will  be monitored and it will depend on members honesty. This is not a tract to where you hunt the other tracts and shoot everything that moves and come here late season when members have been letting deer walk and come in and shoot the woods up. If you are not into management then please do not hunt this tract leave it to those that do. There is very limited parking on this tract and will be a lot of walking to stands, not by choice its because those that had land before us did not cut any trails. 

1. limit of 2 bucks and 2 does per membership paid. If your child or spouse is under your membership and your wife or child kills a buck that is part of the 2 deer max.

2. Bucks will be 4 pt on one side and to the tips of the ear.  Picture of all deer will be mandatory. $100 fine for any buck that does not meet point and size requirements, if a second offense happens then that member will not be allowed to hunt the Fairfield tract again during their membership. 

3. 2 doe minimum per membership. Does will not be harvested until after November 1 with a limit of 1 doe per day.

4 All stands on Fairfield tract will be club owned and club managed stands. Climbers will be allowed. Our goal  is to have low pressure and not have stands on every hill.

5. All stands will be the min of 300 yards and will be marked by satellite

6. Corn will only be allowed in feeders and will be filled by designated members to minimize traffic. There will not be feeders at every stand but enough to keep deer on property. 

7. There will be no visitors allowed on Fairfield tract. 

8.Parking signs will be enforced

9. If your handicapped and can't walk we will do our best to have at least one easy access stand to be able to hunt this tract. Handicap is if you have to use a cane or walker to get to a stand.
