i started my life by hunting on people that we knew. My family got turned down very seldom. we would occassionally hunt on the old weirhouser land.
after college, i moved to KS. we would drive roads and ask to hunt pheasants. we might get turned away on openeing weekends, etc. we would offer the landowners a couple of cleaned pheasants when we hunted.
when i moved back to Okla, i hunted pulic land and many of the old friends had moved from the farms. those that had land were hunting it or starting to lease it. deer hunting and duck hunting was good around Ponca City
i got into an arguement as a person decided to use my tree stand mid day. i then decided to get on a lease ..... this was about 15 years ago.
i tried leases as they got more and more expensive.
i went back to visit in KS and found no one would let us hunt as the land was leased.
about 10 years ago - everywhere that i went was leased. Leasing is a good income generating ssytem for land owners. the landowners just looked atTx to see the possibilities. if you wish to have as=ccess to good land - just face teh fact that it will cost you.
