I will never lease ground, nor will I hunt on leased ground. Just the same as most of you will never hunt high fence, I do not agree with it's principals. I refuse to do this not so I can make a statement, I refuse to do it becauseI disagree with doing it. I will someday hopefully be able to buy property, but as long as I am hunting on other landowners, I will let others hunt on my property. I refuse to become part of this epidemic, and shun those of you who take part in it.
As for you outfitters who claim to not do it for the money, WTF! You tell me that, and unless you are not charging for you hunts I will call you a liar.
When I say "lost property" I mean for instance, you hunt a piece of property, and have hunted if for years, and in my case killed your first deer with a bow off of this property. Now this year the landowners says that someone has offerd him $200 an acre for a lease and he couldn't turn it down. He asks you to remove all of your treestands, and tells you that you will not be allowed on his property. Now that is what I mean by losing property to hunt.
