RE: How much do you pay for leased hunting land?
Not much leasing done in the areas I hunt in Ontario. The group Imuzzleloader/bow hunt withhave 3 seperate farms totalling about 5500 acres that we hunt. A handshake, a couple bags of fish filets and a bottle at X-mas,, and most farmers dont want any of that. Just respect them and theyre property and kill some doe's if you can.
We throw a big fish fry and supply everything including the beers onthe day prior too the season at the farmers house we "base" out of. He invites all theyre friends for it, weve gotten too know severallocal farmersthey always ask us when we are going too come start hunting theyre land. They dont usually deer hunt theyre farms until the second or third season when the all the crops are down.
