Unfortunately I cant see the pics,, but if they look good! Also unfortunate I had to sell my 119 acres in NNY! [&o]

And it is only getting better for him! My buddy tells me on the phone that he now has some larger bucks on film, and get this, a BIG bull elk too. That is a real BIG surprise, not that there's elk in KS, but the closest known elk is on Ft. Riley which is a good 60 miles away. I asked him to Email me more pics., so I'll pass them on once I get them.

nice looking bucks

Not a penney more than the going rate for the area.

That's the problem BOW, is the "going rate" keeps going up and up. That part of the country is mostly ag./farm country. The price is already higher than what any farmer can pay and still make a living on. Hunting is the driving force of the prices back there right now. It's crazy. In the last 3 years I bought two pieces of ground, they are attached, and the average price I paid was $650. Luckfully for me, my brother farms it for me and I have some descent income from it. BUT this piece my buddy just bought, he paid $800/acre. It's great hunting ground, with CRP, over grown pasture and heavily wooded creek. The CRP is the only income the land has. It's crazy!
IMO, buying land is a great investment, probably even at the $800/acre price. BUT as farmers get bought/sell out more and more, I wonder what's to come in the future?

boy i wish i had land like that

I would LOVE to see a game cam pic of an elk; don't know if I've ever seen that before... at least on here, anyways.

He's right... with the lack of mass I'd say they're younger bucks. Lots of room to grow...... ASSUMING of course they make it with out catching CWD that supposedly has hit Kansas.

Go to Georgia....it's more like $1500-2000/acre.

have to agree the going rate, but I also understand the rate change. Got my 119 acres for less than 400.00 in NY. Had to sell it, but got a better rate. Just depends at the time you are ready to buy, but I wouldnt pay more than the rate at the time you wanted to buy!
