Welcome to Heritage Sporting Club (HSC). You are joining an exclusive member-focused community of sportsmen that have a passion for wing shooting and the outdoors. Our rules are designed to ensure every member, their family, and guests have a great experience at Heritage Sporting Club. Hunting has inherent risks and the safety of everyone on the property is our primary goal. Any behavior that endangers our members will not be tolerated. Keep in mind, membership at Heritage Sporting Club is a PRIVILEGE. Our right to access and enjoy the property is a PRIVILEGE. Members are expected to conduct themselves as ethical sportsmen, follow the rules, limits, and respect the rights of fellow members as well as follow all state and Federal laws, and common safety procedures. We retain the right to deny, terminate or non-renew any membership at our discretion. Our members are our community. It takes every member’s effort to ensure that this club will be the premier waterfowl hunting in Colorado. Please treat your neighbors like you want to be treated. Watch out for everyone’s best interest. Report any violations or incidents to member services ASAP. If you would like to request a change in policy for the following season, please email your request to members@heritagesportingclub.com. 

GENERAL PROVISIONS 

Membership is for one season at a time. This waterfowl membership season coincides with the 2022-2023 Colorado Parks and Wildlife Waterfowl season. The following rules apply to all members, their family, and guests. We would appreciate each member helping to police these rules through HSC management.  

1. INDEMNITY AND HOLD HARMLESS: No person is allowed onto the property for any reason without a properly executed release of liability agreement. All Members shall acknowledge and agree in writing, by affixing their initials on pages one (1) through six (6) and signature on page Seven (7), signifying the Member’s Acceptance and Approval of these Rules, Regulations and the HOLD HARMLESS clause in this agreement. All signed pages must have an initial or signature as indicated either wet or e-signed by the primary member. All pages must be returned to management via mail, email or e-signature procedures before you are allowed to access the property. All members are hereby notified that email will be the primary form of communication from Member Services. It is the member’s responsibility to inform Member Services of the correct email address to receive correspondence, notices and documentation. The Member, for themselves, family, guests, and invitees, ASSUMES ALL RESPONSIBILITY AND LIABILITY and agrees to hold Heritage Sporting Club LLC, its landowners, contractors, principals, and employees, absolutely held harmless from any and all actions and free from liability whatsoever assumed or implied of any form or type. 

2. MEMBERSHIP: Heritage Sporting Club offers a number of membership options for our club at Milton Reservoir. This contract is exclusively for a Private Waterfowl Membership. A membership consists of one primary member and their dependents (secondary members). Dependents include a spouse or legal partner, and their legal dependent children under the age of 21, and grandparents over the age of 75. Secondary members must be accompanied by the primary member or spouse. Anyone under the age of 21 must be supervised at all times. Anyone that is not a primary or secondary member are considered a guest of the primary member. Membership only applies to the individuals that are listed on this contract and have signed all pages of this agreement. The guardian of any dependent under 18 must sign this document in lieu of the minor. 

3. GUESTS: Members may bring one complimentary guest on each daily hunt. Additional daily guests will incur a $100/person fee. Individual non-member guests are limited to three hunts during the season. Non-Dependent Family Member Hunt Fee ($50/head) applies to any direct relative that is NOT included as part of the Private Membership. There is no limit on number of hunts direct relatives can attend during the season. Guest fees must be paid prior to the hunt. Members must hunt with their guests at ALL times. 

4. MEMBERSHIP DATES: This this season’s full membership is from April 1, 2022 (offseason dog training) until the last day of March 2023. We are the Northeast Zone for Ducks and the Regular Central Flyway Zone for Geese. 

5. HUNT DATES: In order to provide the best hunting experience, it is important that we do not put too much pressure on the birds. To limit the pressure, we limit our hunt days. Members are available to reserve a hunt day: Everyday during Early Teal (September 10-18); everyday for Youth Only Season (October 1&2). Then it goes to 3 days a week (Wednesday, Saturday, Sunday) plus holidays through December 31st, and 5 days a week (Wednesday-Sunday) starting Jan 1. We allow hunting from ½ hour before sunrise until 2PM on every hunt day. Sandhill Cranes may be hunted exclusively from October 3-October 7th throughout the day by reservation. Guests are not permitted for sandhill crane hunting October 3-7th. This is a member only privilege and members are encouraged to hunt together during the crane-only season. After October 7th, Sandhill Cranes may be hunted as part of the normal waterfowl season under the same time/day framework established by the club. Hunt reservations will be made through online Members Portal. 

 6. MEMBERSHIP BENEFITS: 

a. PRIVATE HUNTING UNITS: The property will be divided into hunting units which individual members and their hunt party can hunt out of. A Zoom meeting will be held each Thursday night at 8 pm to draw for hunt units for the upcoming hunt week (Sat-Sunday, Wed) during the general waterfowl season. Members may use a proxy for themselves in the event that they cannot attend the Zoom meeting on any given Thursday night. Results of the drawing will be available the following day (Friday) in which members that were unable to attend the Zoom drawing may reserve leftover hunt units. Additionally, open hunt units will be marked on a map each morning of a hunt for those that make last minute reservations. Heritage staff may require an in-person hunt unit drawing on certain hunt days in which large attendance is expected (i.e. opening days). Members will be notified in advance of in-person drawing dates. Heritage reserves the right to change the days/times of the drawing to accommodate members in the best way possible.  

b. PRIVATE BLINDS: Private blinds will be provided by Heritage for our members to hunt out of. In addition, our members will be allowed to hunt out of their own blind within their hunting unit.

The soil is sandy and the grasses take years to get established. There is absolutely NO off-roading on the property. This will result in immediate termination of the HSC Membership. 

c. NO DRIVING ON MUDDY ROADS: Driving on muddy roads are not authorized. This can result in the vehicle tearing ruts into the road and the vehicle getting stuck.

g. PARKING: Parking is permitted in designated areas only. All vehicles must display a proper vehicle or guest parking pass. Any vehicle found without a proper pass will be towed at the member’s expense. All vehicles must have a valid registration and insurance to enter HSC property. Again, all members are 100% responsible for their guest at all times. It is the Members responsibility to know where the designated parking areas are on the property. NO VEHICLES CAN BE PARKED OUTSIDE THE HSC GATE OR ALONG THE PROPERTY LINE AT ANY POINT.

Once a hunt unit is allocated, hunt parties may hunt anywhere within the hunt unit boundary. Parties may choose to hunt from the HSC permanent blinds located within some hunt units, but are not required to do so. All hunters within an individual hunt unit must hunt together. 

d. DRAWING: Each Thursday prior, there will be a random draw to select hunt units. The draw will begin at 8 pm. Each standing member will enter their name into the draw once they arrive. The first member to be drawn will select their preferred hunt unit and that unit will be removed from the board. Then the next member will be drawn, and so on. Any member who arrives after the draw starts must wait until the draw to finish to select their unit. Any member that arrives after the draw closes must meet with a HSC staff member to get a unit assignment. Leftover hunt units for the upcoming hunt week will be posted on the Friday following the drawing.  

e. DECOY ONLY HUNTING: NO jump shooting or pass shooting is allowed on the property.

All dogs need to be kenneled when not hunting. Dogs are not allowed to run loose in areas where hunting is taking place. No dogs are allowed in the clubhouse.

 h. DOWNED BIRDS: Any bird that you shoot will count against your limit. You many not retrieve a downed bird off the designated hunting property. You may not contact adjacent landowners or trespass on private property. You must contact HSC staff to contact the landowner on your behalf. 

i. SHOOTING TIMES: Always refer to Colorado Parks & Wildlife (CPW) and US Fish & Wildlife Service (USFWS) regulations on legal shooting times. DO NOT shoot early. Hunters must be in their hunt unit 10 minutes prior to legal shoot time.

j. GUN SAFETY: Shotguns are the only firearms allowed on the property by members or guests. All firearms must be unloaded with the breach open until you are physically in your blind. All firearms must remain unloaded until 5 minutes before legal shoot time. Firearms must be unloaded with the breach open if you have harvested your limit.Your firearm will remain unloaded with the breach open at all times you are on Heritage property after your hunt. 

k. GUIDES: HSC will have professional guides available for a fee of $250/hunt. Heritage guides are professionals that have extensive experience. Their job is to ensure you have a safe and enjoyable experience. They will prepare for your hunt before you arrive by scouting the property and reviewing the forecasted weather for the day of your hunt. They will set out a decoy spread, and ensure the blind is properly brushed up for your hunt. They will answer any questions and take you out to your blind. As professional callers, they will call in the birds and let you know the optimum time to shoot. Guided hunts end at noon unless specially arranged. Heritage guides start setting up their spread hours before sunrise and have hours of work after your hunt. Feel free to hunt at your same blind after your guide leaves. Tips are welcome. (Please reserve in advance so we can ensure availability.) 

l. TRASH: Pick up shell casings and trash after EVERY hunt. Report any trash immediately to member services. 

 m. TARGET SHOOTING: Target shooting is only allowed with steel shot at the designated shooting area under the supervision of Heritage staff.  

n. HUNT RESPECTFULLY: Be considerate of other members’ hunting situations when entering or leaving the property. o. IT’S HUNTING: HSC has an amazing piece of property and is doing everything in its power to optimize the hunting experience. We do not control migratory bird patterns. As a HSC member, you are enjoying an optimized environment for a great hunt, but your hunt is not guaranteed. You will be hunting wild birds that are unpredictable by nature. 

 p. HUNTING EQUIPMENT: Members are responsible for bringing their own waders, boots, protective eyewear, hat, firearm and ammunition when hunting the property.  

q. ACCESS/PARKING: Always stay on established trails and roads. Parking is only allowed in designated parking locations located a minimum of 100 ft away from any oil and gas well, tank or facility.

 t. REPORTING HARVEST: All members are required to report their harvest after the hunt. Drop boxes will be located at every hunting gate which you can drop off your harvest report. 

u. PROHIBITED DRUGS & ALCOHOL: No drugs (including marijuana which is still federally illegal) are allowed on the property. No alcoholic beverages are allowed while in the blinds. Alcohol is allowed at the base camp clubhouse ONLY after hunters are finished for the day. Any member found drinking and then entering the field to hunt, or discharging firearms after consuming alcohol will have their membership revoked. No campfires. Open fires are only allowed in the designated fire pit at the clubhouse. 

v. GUIDED NON-MEMBER HUNTS: HSC will offer guided, day hunts to non-members based on current waterfowl numbers and water conditions. The guide will enter the drawing to select the hunting unit and will follow the same rules as any other member. Please welcome these hunters as they may be part of club in the future. HSC will limit guided hunts to no more than two units per hunt day, and will ensure guided hunt dates do not interfere with member’s ability to hunt.  

w. BANNED GUESTS: HSC has the right to prohibit anyone from entering the property. If HSC bans someone, that person will not be allowed on the property as your guest. If you are not sure if your guest is banned, please contact member services via email to clarify and get permission. Members assume ALL liability for their guests.

This is required by our lease and non-compliance will result in immediate membership termination.

c. SANITATION: No refuse shall be thrown into or left on the shoreline of the lake.  

19. AQUATIC NUSIANCE SPECIES (ANS): ANS is a major threat to lakes in Colorado. Introduction of ANS into this reservoir could result in the end of our ability to operate on this lake.
