Most hunting clubs have 12 to 35 members. Traditional screen printers want 24-piece minimums. That math has burned every club president who has tried to do apparel: 24 shirts ordered, 22 members buy theirs, two leftover smalls sitting in the lodge for years. The no-minimum model fixes the math. One member orders one shirt, one shirt gets printed, one shirt ships to that member. The club never fronts money and never eats inventory.

Why no-minimum matters for small clubs

Three reasons no-minimum solves the small-club problem:

  1. No upfront cost: the club does not write a check before a single member commits
  2. No leftovers: the club never has 4XLs and smalls collecting dust at the lodge
  3. No payment chasing: members pay at checkout, not after the run, never a "you still owe me $25" conversation

How the no-minimum model actually works

The shop URL is live year-round. Each individual member orders the size, color, and personalization they want. Each order triggers one print run. The shirt is made, packed, shipped, and arrives at the member home in about a week. The club gets paid the markup on each sale via direct deposit.

From the club perspective, it works exactly like an Amazon page that happens to print club apparel.

What this means for new members joining mid-year

The old screen-print model meant a new member who joined in October had to wait until next year for a club shirt, or never got one at all. The no-minimum model means a new member joins on Tuesday, opens the welcome email Wednesday, places an order, has the shirt by the following Wednesday.

This is the single biggest win for clubs that bring in new members on a rolling basis. The merch program no longer treats members as a one-time annual cohort.

When bulk still makes sense

Two scenarios where ordering 20 or more identical pieces in a single bulk run still beats no-minimum:

For both, the platform still ships at the same per-piece price. The difference is the club places the order in a single batch instead of letting members do it individually. See bulk hunting club orders for that approach.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the per-piece price more expensive at no minimum?

Per-piece price is the same whether one shirt is ordered or one hundred. No setup fee, no minimum, no bulk-discount tier.

How is the print quality compared to a bulk screen print?

Comparable. Modern direct-to-garment and direct-to-film print quality on a single-shirt order matches a bulk screen-print run.

Can different members get different colors of the same shirt?

Yes. Each member picks their own size, color, and customization. Every order is independent.

Does the club have to commit to an order quantity?

No. Zero quantity commitment. The shop sits open and members buy whatever they want, whenever they want.
