Do I want it the way it is? No, do I understand why the way it is, yes.
My replies are about cash, sure, but yours are always why am I not getting something for free
I suggest you sell the pretty Harley that loses value the second you buy it and buy some land. Then you can let every Tom D!ck and Harry hunt on it, and just see how they "respect" your land when it's free. Look no further than how most treat public land.
Hunters abuse of farmers/Private ownersland has caused more non hunting signs than most think.
Actually Germ,
My family own's thousands of acres of land in Iowa, and we have never leased the land. We let locals hunt on it for free and they do give that land the utmost respect!! They bring us corn, meat, etc for this privilege and we feel it is our duty to share the land with our neighbors!
