around my area you can buy timbered land that has been select cut for $1500 the first acre and $750 for each additional acre with a min. of 40 acres.I bought 140 acres 6 years ago for $21,0000 but it had been recentlyclearcut.
I put an additional $3500 into bulldozer work to make food plots, and did it by having 50 yd wide swaths run alongside eachother seperated by75-100 yd widestrips I left go to scrub. since thenI opened up a spring to make a small (100' x 25') pond 4-8' deep for water.
I don't really need it for hunting as I have family land between there and home. I did it mostly to pull deer off SGL that abutts the land and give them a place to hold up when pressured by the kill a doe to save food for a buck crowd.
BTW last September Ibought 300 NO TRESSPASS signs and put themALL up on that 140 acres. Any fool that tells me they didn't know it was posted gets turned in.
I'm confused, less than a week ago you posted this on another thread:
my family hunts wherever they wish and the only land I own is where I'll be buried. My wife however owns 4oo acres and we do leave any of them that wishhunt there
I guess you will be buried on that 140 acres... or did you spend $21,000 for a cemtery plot, $3,500 for bulldozer work and then put a pond on it? Must be a big grave. Are you a portly fellow?
One thing about telling the truth, you dont have to worry about remembering what you said last week
