Maidendown Bay Gun and Golf Hunting Preserve and staff assume no liability for and will in no way be held responsible for personal injury and/or property damage occurring while using the Maidendown Bay Gun and Golf Hunting Preserve.

While at Maidendown Bay Gun and Golf Preserve, I AGREE to follow all range, hunting, and gun safety rules. The safety of all sportsmen is the ultimate goal of Maidendown Bay Gun and Golf Hunting Preserve while at the same time enjoying this great sport. There will be a limit of 3 shooters per guide (exceptions must be approved by the guide).

Alcohol and drugs do not mix with shooting and the consumption of such in the blind or on the range will lead to immediate removal from the range and/or hunting blinds.

  Blind Safety Rules and Hunting Guidelines:

  1. Follow all instructions of the range master and guides; REMEMBER SAFETY FIRST!!!
  2. Load only when instructed to do so by the guides.
  3. No firing out of the end of the blinds.
  4. During a cease fire, all guns must be unloaded.
  5. Fire at a 45 degree angle only inside the blinds.
  6. A HIT bird is a counted bird, even if it keeps on flying. (Note: Feathered, drop a leg, fall but not found, a visible hit but the bird dose not fall immediately.)
  7. During retrieval no gun is to be loaded.
  8. Do not fire at a wounded bird on the water or ground. The guide will give instructions, and at the proper time shoot the bird.
