RE: I Can't Believe This Shhi.....Crap!
I feel for ya. 10 years ago, I didn't ever recall seeing land leased in Kansas. Now Dept. of Wildlife and Parks manages the hunting as an economic tool. I don't blame the landowners for leasing. It only benefits the non-hunting landowners.
I blame the Wildlife and Parks for letting it happen. Many, many poor decisions. Mostly all politcally decided with money initiatives.
I have hada few spots that have been leased away from me. Luckily there are still a few farmers that still let me hunt with any money exchange, by helping them out every once in a while. WhetherI help the farmerround up cattle, or set up irrigation. That's the way it should be, to get permission to hunt.
