Pennsylvania’s 100-year-old club members fondly recall good old days

Big Chiques Hunting Club in Lycoming County, Pa., was founded a century ago by a group of men who wanted fellowship and a good place to target white-tailed deer, bears, turkeys and other game.
They met on the banks of Chiques Creek in Lancaster County, where they all lived, to formulate their plan. Deer numbers were robust in 1924, so much so that the Pennsylvania Game Commission was introducing new management regulations that included allowing landowners to kill deer for crop damage, and establishing an antlerless deer season.
