If I could right off my hunting land I would.For Drury it is a business expence. It seems to me if you put in your time you have just as good of a chance as the guy that spends $$$$. Some people don't have the time and to hire an outfitter is the only way to go.If you are talking a canned hunt well that's just shooting. No hunting skill required.
I have dumped alot of $$$ into my property to make it a better place to hunt. It's working but my major expenses are going to go away and I will just have to buy stuff to plant the food plots. If the Drury's paid for the land but never set foot on the property until they went there to hunt then that doesn't make them good hunters. If they scouted it all and hung the stands and put out the cameras and all the other stuff then that makes them good hunters in my eye. They have a good location and the ability to work it.
