When I was first stationed in Texas, I was pretty excited. I had read and heard all the stories about the great hunting.

Then I saw guys charging 150.00 to 300.00 a day to shoot coyotes. That ended my desire to hunt Texas.

Beaufiful country for sure but for hunting, I just can't get into the whole "lease" idea.

Here in WI/Michigan, the lease idea is there but so small/unheard of - it just isn't part of the game plan.

If you shop and look, you can buy decent land for decent prices. Granted you aren't hunting 10,000 acres but you don't need to have that much space up here. My father, brother and I (and now my son) have a camp on 120 acres. We hunt that and another 120 down the road. The experience is still amazing every year.
