Butte City Hunting Club

Butte City Hunting Club solves the problem most hunters face: overcrowded public refuges, expensive private clubs, and rigid reservation systems. Located in the heart of the Sacramento Valley's Upper Butte Basin and Colusa Basin—just 90 minutes from the state capital—BCHC gives you access to premier hunting without the premium price tag or bureaucracy.

Unlike most private hunting clubs, you don't need reservations or blind drawings. Hunt 7 days a week whenever your schedule allows. Bring your spouse and any children under 17 to hunt with you for free. This family-focused approach makes it possible to build a hunting tradition without breaking the bank.

BCHC controls over 2,500 acres of prime Sacramento Valley habitat:

• •Rice fields for primary waterfowl hunting
• •Tule-choked ditches and sloughs
• •Tree-lined water channels
• •Upper Butte Basin and Colusa Basin locations

Blind use and field preparations follow seasonal farming practices and water district schedules, which means conditions vary year to year—but that's the reality of valley hunting.

"We pride ourselves on being a user-friendly, fun-oriented, family-accommodating club."
