All you do on a lease is improve the landowners property & indigenous herd. You get absolutely no return for your sweat equity or money. It is only good until it isn't.
Well, you do get exclusive trespassing/hunting privileges as long as you hold the lease.
When the old farmer who I lease from passes I expect to lose the lease 'cause his kids don't hunt. I pay $2,400 per year for exclusive trespassing/hunting rights and do a couple of work days for the farmer doing chores like cutting/splitting wood and fixing fences.
