The land is right around 12,000 deeded acres and I paid $10,000.00. There's probably about 500 shares (although I'm unsure about that number as I just bought this thing last week) but rarely do I see one for sale (in the Moorefield WV newspaper...the most likely place to see one). I'd say $10,000.00 is somewhat below fmv as I'd bet I could sell that same share for $12-$15k right now, depending on where/how I advertised.
HB..I've been hunting on a private farm outside of Baker for several years... unless the game population is 10X what we have,(and it's NOT) that's too much $$... the days of Hardy Co being in the top 10 in Deer/Turkey harvests are LOOOONG gone. the animals just aren't in hardy co. like in years past. we have neighbors' whos been trying to sell his land for 9K/Ac... ain't happening... the most he was offered by the local chicken farmer(s) was 3K( and that's too much IMHO)....glad you got into a club, if that was yor goal..wonderful ....I'm just sayin' I wouldn't pay what you did, much less what you say you'd get for selling it... but to each his own.
