Lubbockdave: Sounds like your Hunting experiences of late have left a bad taste in your mouth?
I feel bad for you.
I guess I have been blessed to have successfully Hunted mostly on public lands in Washington, Oregon, Alaska, Montana, Utah, Wyoming and Alberta along with some superb Hunting on private lands in some of those same regions.
I have never Hunted Deer or Elk on a leased property so I am not sure if your experience is the norm but I hope you find a place that will make your Hunting experiences more enjoyable/rewarding.
Good luck in the future.
