Finding a club isn't easy. Its like they're well-kept secrets.
I'm very fortunate to have a great group of friends. I too have yet to find a club near me to join or else I would, just to guarantee me somewhere that isn't open to the public to hunt every Saturday, Wednesday, or whatever day it is, that the season is in.
I did join a club couple years back but it's an hour and a half+ drive. I'm all about convenience these days, depending on the subject, but that weekly drive's a bit far for me since the past few years I've got a kid or 2 in tow. Not impossible by any means, just a smidge cumbersome.
Between invites and public fields I'm blessed just to have somewhere to go.
One good buddy has done real well with his business and since could afford to buy 80+ acre property and he's been doing his own field last few years. Some years it turned out well, others not so much but he's figuring it out. I need to learn from him cause my in-laws have some dirt that was actually a great field when they bought the land. Got access a tractor with tiller on-site, just need a planter and sprayer, unless I'm missing something else. I'm hoping I can get my ducks in a row and plant sunflowers there this spring.

Delta in a nutshell: Breeding grounds + small wetlands + big blocks of grass cover + predator removal + nesting structures + enough money to do the job= plenty of ducks to keep everyone smiling!
