    its funny how people you know drop hints about going hunting but when you mention you are going to be doing some work like clearing brush or setting up blinds, they all have something else to do like a dentist appointment or a funeral to go to.

    If someone shows just a little interest in helping out I can make sure they get some time in the blind during the season, it;s just I have been hit up no less than 3 times this week by people to hunt.
    When I mentioned I'd be setting up blinds and doing some lane clearing, they were all busy:rolleyes:

    Interesting, I've been looking at land up that way. That sounds like it's just north of Brownwood.



    There is some great land just east of Abilene but every Ft Worth lawyer has bought it up already

    Hey VMax, PM me with your location. I'm in Parker County and, depending on what you're needing, I have a 30 HP CUT with an FEL and box blade.

    That's why I own property in Arizona...no offers or inquiries whatsoever from anyone who knows I have it.

    I did just find a nice hunting/shooting/camping place an hour NW of Leander. If it stays on the market for another 6 months, I might try to buy it.

    Sounds like it isn't too far from me.

    I'm actively looking at land. Probably 3 years out from buying, I'd guess (kiddo has 2.5 more years in college).

    Having never participated in a paid hunting lease, if I did decide to lease a purchase out to help cover costs, what's a year-round or seasonal lease going for, per-hunter/per-gun? Assume primarily deer, maybe hog, maybe dove/quail/duck (but not the primary use).

    Is cost per-acre? Significant difference in 20, 50 and 100 acres, or does it take "big, huge, place" to make a difference?

    I'll do some research online but would love to hear from folks here.
