146 acres (your fair portion) is enough to build your own sanctuary and plots, etc..........and turn your patch into a real honey hole. When they do venture off your patch though, at least you know the sub 100" deer your passing aren't going to get shot. Win/win in my opinion.

You would have enough control over a large enough piece to make a much larger difference than what you will be able to do at your patch at home. I'd try to understand the costs, and if I could afford it and it made sense, I'd think real seriously about it. I'd of course be much more interested in buying, but if I wasn't in that position a lease can be a great situation.
