You state you have three farms in IA to hunt. Can you hunt all three at the same time? Why not give two up so some other guy can knock on the door and get permission to hunt for free. I would not expect you to do that, and I don't expectyou to get upset when I, or anyone else has to lease.
Landowners didn't want anybody else on them; their choice, not mine. I didn't demand it that way. On an IA forum there are only two guys that approve of leasing; others agree it is bad deal for hunting. It is a geographical opinion from what I see.
So it's ok for the land owner tonot allow anyone to hunt but you because it's "his choice" but it's NOT ok for him to lease it? They are already not allowing anyone else to hunt it so what's the difference? Oh you don't want them to make money...They already haveenough huh?
I'm not a big fan of leasing either and I don't lease property but in the end(to use your own words) it's "their choice". This IS still America isn't it? Capitalism is still the backbone of our economy right?
I've got an idea....maybe we should ALL move to New Mexico, after all Iread somewherethat they havelike 23 million public acresandsomething like 11 big game species to hunt.........Now where have I read
thatbefore.
