Local sells 200 permits

The local developer advertised and sold 200 permits to hunt bow only. They charged each person 200.00.The line was long and alot were to late and turned down. And this is the same property they have been with permits culling the deer herd all winter. TELL me the Pa southeastern hunter aint desperate for property to hunt on.!!!!!!!!

I missed that, but I wouldnt pay 200 bucks to hunt someplace with 200 other people.. That is bull crap.

I have enough places I can hunt in SE PA

Nothing but a lease with 200 members.

How much ground does this guy have for these 200 hunters?

cardeer · 08-12-2005, 02:38 PM

About 600 acres they are allowed to hunt.About a 1000 surrounding it .But the 1000 is off limits and there is construction of roads and sewersgoing on.

do we know whee this land is?

BTBowhunter · 08-12-2005, 03:24 PM

$40,000 for 600 acres? Thats over $650 per acre! Thats about 10 times what a top dollar lease in Illinois would cost

Sounds a bit far fetched to me.....

Cardeer sounds like its out of valley forge area, I used to post under the name upatree but lost my computer and net work.I cant believe thay pay that price .Is crossbow allowed, I could buy alot of steaks for that kind of money ,Or even hunt for a 800lb moose cheaper than that. bty my offer still stands for a hunt near collegville for a hunt.
