Are hunting clubs allowed to serve alcohol?

It may be different depending on the state but I'm curious to know if they can serve alcohol.Are hunting clubs allowed to serve alcohol?
I have enjoyed a cold one, or two or eight at my gun club. A beer tastes good after a couple of hours on the hot range. It is in West Texas.





Note I said ';after being on the range'; and not before.Are hunting clubs allowed to serve alcohol?
Depending on the state, a hunting club can probably serve alcohol if it has a license, just like any other private club. It's not like the members drag their iron into the bar; just about every state has laws prohibiting firearms in establishments that serve alcoholic beverages and the club probably has its own rules as well.





It's not a club, but the YO Ranch in Texas, which is devoted to hunting, has a full bar on the premises.
I believe that you are asking if a group of guys that lease or own land to hunt on can drink alcohol on that property the answer is yes, unless the club by-laws forbid it.But if you mean can a hunting club can sell alcohol the answer is yes, if it has a legal license to do so. But no if it doesn't have a license.
Each State,County,City,Town has their own laws. It would matter if they are public or private and if they sell the beer or its included in the fee and membership. If a guy builds a shooting range on his farm can he serve beer? Why not! If you get caught shooting drunk or shoot a hole through someone's house while drinking and the cop show up.....your toast.
well guns and alcohol don't mix so common sense says NO
Private ones
