Business Updates


We are out of birds, so our spring 2012 season is over. This March weather is sure been strange. 75-85 degrees most days has made hunting tough but actually did not work too bad. Look forward to next fall and doing this again. We will post some pictures from the 2nd Annual Gramma Lee Hunt, held here a week ago, in the near future.

Twin Lakes Sporting Club is in our 21st season in the hunting preserve business. We have discontinued the sporting clays part of our operation. When we began we told you that we were not a Country Club but a Club in the Country, and that is how we have remained. Muddy boots and dogs are welcome in our clubhouse. We still strive to have the best birds released in the most natural setting that we can provide, with as reasonable a price as possible. The big improvement since we began, is the better quaility of birds. Hopefully that will continue.
If you have any questions about are operation please contact us and we will do our best to provide you with all the information needed.

BUSINESS PROFILE

Twin Lakes Sporting Club was established in 1991. It is located on a 1400-acre family grain-crop farm, 15 miles southwest of Mexico, Missouri, or about 30 Miles Northeast of Columbia, MO. or 120 miles west of St. Louis along I-70. Our 1280-acre hunting preserve provides all the needs for a successful hunt without the hassles associated with locating a place to hunt, poor cover, local limits and few birds.

We have worked with the Missouri Department of Conservation since 1986, planting over 10,000 trees as well as planting food plots and managing for native grasses.
We believe that this natural cover along with our hard flying birds offers the type of hunting the discriminating hunter is looking for. Hunting at a well, managed, hunting preserve can be far sportier than so called open hunting on most farmlands. This is because the cover and wildlife habitat are so much better developed. It's a sorry fact that there is now more wildlife habitat on a good hunting preserve than there is on most farms.

Saturday after the wild quail season ended the Thuggers (formally known as the Washington Warriors) held their 1st Annual, End of the Quail Season, Bird Hunt & Social. Dave's Chili was a hit, though it made the afternoon hunt more difficult for the dog. We tried to keep the wind in the dogs face and the hunters behind.

Recently, Vogler's Rough Riders annual hunt was held again at Twin Lakes. As every year, there is a "little" joking going on between fans of The Kansas Jayhawks and the Missouri Tigers. Below is a couple of pictures of the loser of the KU/MU football game.
