RE: Leases....
In Texas everyone leases, there is no free land. For a good place you will pay around $12.00 per acre for a place. You will need at least 100 acres per hunter. Normally that will give you exclusive year around hunting rights to the place. I have seen places as low as $5/acre and as high as $40/acre. I am 42 and can't image hunting any other way.
