Frequently Asked Questions About Hunting Insurance
Do you cover weapons besides guns?
Yes, we can provide insurance solutions for hunters who use guns and other weapons such as bows and arrows, crossbows, slingshots, and more.
Does my homeowners policy cover me?
Probably not. Many hunters wrongly assume that they’re fully covered for liability on their homeowner’s policy. This isn’t usually the case, or the coverage is extremely limited. Therefore, you must ensure you have proper hunting liability coverage that can protect you in the event of an accident, incident, claim, or lawsuit.
How much does hunting insurance cost?
The actual price will depend on a variety of factors. These factors may include the type of hunting being pursued, the specific risks associated with that type of hunting, the geographical location, the experience level of the hunter(s), and more.

What Coverage Do I Need for My Hunting Insurance Policy?
The type of insurance coverage needed for hunting will depend on your unique circumstances. XINSURANCE does not provide a cookie-cutter policy that applies to everyone. Instead, we talk to you and learn more about you and/or your business. We then come up with an insurance solution that provides customized coverage based on your needs. This all-in-one approach allows you to pick which coverages you want to have on your insurance policy.
Why Should I Have Hunting Liability Insurance?
You need hunting liability insurance to help protect you when things go wrong. In life, you will learn how good your insurance partner is when what can happen does happen. XINSURANCE stands by your side when an accident, incident, claim, or lawsuit occurs. In some places, hunting liability insurance may be required. We often see hunters who are required to carry liability insurance by the landowner.
Can I Be Insured if I've Been Dropped or Rejected by an Insurance Company?
Yes, XINSURANCE can help you even if you’ve been declined, canceled, or non-renewed by an insurance company. We step in to provide an insurance solution when others can’t or won’t.
Hunting Lawsuits Can Be Extremely Costly
You may think that you don’t need hunting liability coverage since you are conscientious and handle guns with care. But can you afford not to cover that risk? The main types of 3rd-party injury or damage that happen during hunting incidents are:
- Shooting at a target but missing and hitting a person instead
- Mistaking a person for a wild animal and shooting them
- Shooting someone due to accidental discharge of a gun or other weapon
- Fired bullets hitting and damaging another person’s property
If someone suffers an injury, the cost of liability claims can be huge. For example, in Wisconsin, a bow hunter was in a tree stand and struck in the face by shotgun pellets from a hunter who believed the bow hunter to be a turkey. The matter was resolved for the sum of $150,000. Hunters should be licensed and know how to handle a firearm, however, accidents still occur. Approximately 1,000 hunting accidents occur each year in the U.S. and about 10% of these accidents result in death.
Situations Where Hunting Club Insurance Applies
Examples of scenarios where the appropriate liability insurance coverage should protect you include:
- A guest of one of your members accidentally shoots another guest during a hunting excursion.
- A member falls out of an improperly maintained treestand on your property and suffers a debilitating back injury.
- A member, while traveling at a high rate of speed on an ATV covered under the policy, accidentally strikes and kills another member. The plan will offer protection if the deceased member’s survivors decide to sue you.
- A third party trips over a piece of equipment that a member did not store properly and incurs an injury.
- A hunting dog belonging to one of the members bites a guest, resulting in substantial medical bills.
