Well around here you can ask 100 people and 95 of them will say the land is already being hunted,the other 5 will say they dont allow hunting,after years and years of hunting public lands,countless interrupted hunts i started working for this land owner,I know guys that previously worked for him all said there was no way he would ever allow deer hunting on his land and it hasn't been hunted in over 14 years long story short I talked him into leasing the land to me I tried to get it for $500.00 but he wouldn't he says the neighbor is getting close to 10 grand a year on a lease the rumor is there is such a big buck in the area that they are willing to pay that price but thats not why I took the lease I took the lease because I wont have to deal with the public hunting lands and its close to me that is why this lease feels worth it to me,I know there will be deer,I am going to put a cam out this week.
