Default RE: Gun hunting land to lease

My 2 sons are busy with football and don't have much time to bowhunt. They are just getting into archery and probably won't be in the woods a half a dozen times, if that,between the two of them. The few times they can get out I'd prefer they'd have the place to themselves. Between games, practices and other family events any time in the woods would be random at best.

I have about 70 acres of woods. Not a good idea to overhunt. If I leased it for bowhunting I anticipate it would be hunted a lot which would make it very difficult for my boys to take advantage of their limited opportunities.

I encourage my boys to take does. No small bucks. Highly unlikely they'll ever take a big buck their first few years. I don't foresee the buck population suffering. We have not taken a deer off the land in years.

The price for bow hunting would be alot higher. I can add bowhunting in but it won't be cheap.

I may or may not have a taker on the gun hunt which is fine. I thought I'd see if anyone is interested and be honest about what I was offering.
