Company Information

Homer's Hunting Club is a hunting club that Homer once operated. After Moe made his bar over with a post-modern look (alienating the regular customers), Homer decided to serve drinks in his garage. He then founded the hunting club in order to make it legal.

The hunting club members were patrons of Moe's Tavern:

• Homer Simpson - founder
• Lenny Leonard
• Carl Carlson
• Barney Gumble

Club Bar

A typical scene from Homer's Hunting Club.

The hunting club had a bar in Homer's garage. The bar consisted of a desk on the right side and a urinal nailed to the wall at the back of the garage. Homer said that it was his bar, even though he did almost no work in running it and just sat and drank with his friends. Homer also put Lisa to work in the bar, making her cut lemons that he never even used.

Homer had the rock band R.E.M. in to perform at his bar, after tricking them into thinking that he and his friends were billionaires. R.E.M. quit and walked out, however, when they realized that Homer's bar was a hunting club.

Hunting Trip

Homer's Hunting Club only went hunting once. Moe read from a law book that a hunting club must engage in the sport of hunting, and Homer was forced to take the club on a hunt in order to keep his operation legal. Because it was close to Thanksgiving, he decided to go hunting for a turkey.

Strategies

Homer's first strategy for getting a turkey was simply putting down a plate filled with potatoes, stuffing and cranberry sauce, expecting the turkey to just walk onto the plate. Lisa asked him, "Do you really think the turkey is just going to get on the plate?" to which Homer replied, "I would."

Homer's second strategy was to crawl around the woods, sniper-style, until he found a turkey. This almost worked as he found a turkey and was just about to shoot it, but Moe scared it away using a cougar call.

Dissolution

Homer accidentally shot Moe during the turkey hunt, but the two of them made up during the incident and became friends again. Moe undid his bar's post-modern makeover and went back to the old look. Homer and his friends then returned to drinking at Moe's, ending the hunting club.
