If you have to ask how much, you can't afford it. You need at least a section to get LOP. Dream on.

Huh...could be. Good to know.
I know a few vets that (at least used to) trade veterinary work on cattle/horses for landowner deer tags. I am guessing that would be considered 'marketing'. I know another that would sell his, but maybe that is all past tense now.. But the IDFG also has to prove you sold it. That proof could be very hard to get.

Unless you're going to win the lotto or have s-ton of money, you're better off to buy a home on a small chunk of land, or even in town and become a resident. You have millions of acres of public land to hunt.
In MN or WI we have millions of acres of public land but you can also hunt on 40-200 acres and have resident deer. You don't really have that out west. Hell, many places out there you can see 600 acres from one spot. Many areas in MN and WI you can't see 100 yards. 600 acres? That's less than 1 square mile. Where I've got my elk the last 3 years, you can stand on any low hill and see 100 square miles. Granted, you won't make much money as a logger in this area. There's no market for sagebrush. That’s exactly my point.
Camp is where you make it.

I was contacted just yesterday about buying a piece of property adjacent to where I elk hunt. It’s only 130 acres but it’s the right 130 acres. Has a steady population of both elk and mule deer. To the point where that property has a small number of landowner tags for both.
130 acres priced at six million dollars. Dear Lord…

Lots of folks have no idea what the right piece of property can hold , even 100 acres.
6 mil, holy cow !!!
Some 35 acre parcels up here that could and do hold elk at certain times of the year, split up ranches that allow hunting on community parts of the property with your lot. It's a zoo next door though on one of them.

Thanks and please keep the ideas coming. . OK, how about this one? Keep your money and dole it out occasionally on outfitted hunts in good territory . For what 100 acres anywhere would cost you, you could hunt Chama or Sonora a couple dozen times....

If you bought land, not only would you have your initial investment, you'd likely have doubled it, if not tripled it. AND you'd still have been able to hunt. You don't need 100's of acres just 5 or 10 that abuts USFS or BLM. Use the balance to put up a small cabin and hunting there becomes extremely convenient.
