Around here leasing hasn't taken over. It's not hard to get permission just by asking if you're a local and know some landowners. I have permission to hunt 5 private properties totalling 956 acres within 5 miles of home, including 126 acres right next door and 200 more directly across the road.
Sir,
You are very fortunate. Countless folk would love to be in your stead.
However not everyone has the good fortune to be in your current circumstance.
So here is a straight up question for you.
What would you do if you had very limited access to public land hunting and doing so was not worth your time and effort. Would you stop hunting, or find another venue that you enjoyed?
What if you could have twice the area you indicated that you can hunt to be able to hunt/camp/shoot/ride ATVs, entertain kids and grandkids, at your discretion, 24/7/365 for under $200 per month. Would you have a "Lease"
