I own 80 acres of all wooded land, I also have permission to hunt the following tracks of private land:

20 acre parcel
120 acre parcel
600 acre parcel
140 acre parcel
100 acre parcel
100 acre parcel

We mostly tend to hunt on four of the parcels and often times do not even hunt the other areas. I tend to be one of the lucky one's.

I have access to about 170+ acres this year, all owned by relatives or neighbors so I will be the only one with access. Last year I only had access to about 70 acres so the additional 100 has me really excited. Now I just need a plan and some time off!!

1. None really unless you count some of the farm game co-ops.

2. In which case, about 150 acres and I share them with a few other guys.

3. As for a breakdown I would wager the co-op is about 90 percent woods and 10 percent fields.

I have access to +/- 300 acres total. I have 250 in SE Indiana, and I hunt a small tract in Clermont County Ohio. I took deer off both properties this year, and saw ALOT of deer at each place

I own 80 acres. I lease out 50 of it to a farmer for agriculture so I can afford the place leaving 30 that is actually hunted. Of that I concentrate on maybe half that. Relations are good with the neighbors so I can bow hunt on another 40 to my south, 60 to my east, 240 to my north, and 40 to my west. If it sounds like a lot it's because it is. I'd even say it's too much at times. Try dragging a deer back from the back half. I still prefer to hunt the best 15 acres on my land because It's under my control. I also know it best. I only hunt the neighbors land with a climber or from the ground and rarely even then.

80 acres all family owned. About 35 woods and 45 field. Only family can hunt it so right now that is just me and my son for bow. Everyone else only gun hunts.

when I lived in missouri I had 1,113 acres of private land to hunt the only other person who hunts it is my father inlaw, but we usually hunted together.

Here in arizona I have 212 acres of private land to hunt thats belongs to a friend of mine and his cousin. Or I hunt in state land which is thousands of consecutive acres, though its public I have yet to encounter another hunter.
