RE: In order of importance......Please list...
1. Deer numbers (worthwhile - possibility of success /time invested)
2. Size of bucks (trophy potential)
3. Lease Price
4. Proximity to home (convenience)
I lease several farms, I will not even consider the property if 1 and 2 are not what I am looking for. After that the price is what I look at. Here in Illinois, people can and do get crazy with the amount of money they want to hunt their ground and I refuse to pay crazy money. This is why number 4 is so far down on my list. I am more than willing to drive 2-3 hours for a piece of ground that had the number/quality I want, as well as a price I can afford.
