Hunting season
By Rick Hirsch
Henderson County Extension Agent
Hunting season is
quickly approaching and
landowners as well as hunt-
ers throughout the state have
begun preparations for a
successful harvest. One as-
pect that factors into the
hunting season that mem-
bers of hunting clubs and
landowners must address is
the need for hunting liabil-
ity insurance to protect the
landowner and club mem-
bers. This year the Texas
Forestry Association’s Ex-
ecutive Committee ap-
proved a new alliance with
the Forest Landowners As-
sociation (FLA) in an effort
to make available FLA’s
outstanding Hunting Lease
Liability Insurance program
to TFA members.
To qualify for this new
program landowners will be
required to be members in
good standing of both orga-
nizations. For more infor-
mation about this program
call Outdoor Risk Services,
the administrator of the FLA
program, at (866) 837-6054.
