[QUOTE="AllOut, post: 1869009, member: 12099"] For some reason this just gets to me, I've had some pretty heated discussions with landowners over it and I just don't think they understand. A lot of these guys who don't know much or anything about hunting but hear it through the grape vine "so and so here and so and so there" are getting $5,$10,$15,$20 whatever an acre for his land from hunters. So he turns around and decides his land is worth that much as well. The problem is they always go with whatever price is the highest that they heard and it's usually a "price per acre." Which is absolutely fine!!! Now what burns me (yes I know it's their land and they can price it how they want) is the "I want $10 per acre for the hunting rights of my 320 acres cause that's the going rate around here" and come to find out it's a 300 acre wheat field, 10 acres of pasture and a 10 acre strip of woods! So it would be $3200 for about 20-30 acres of actual huntable land. COME ON NOW!!! We had a guy in Alva last year try and lease us 2 quarter sections one was all CRP and woods and the other was all wheat but told us it's was $??? Per acre and the two properties went together. We told him we didn't want the wheat field just the 1/4 of CRP cause we couldn't hunt the wheat field. He told us that the CRP holds the deer on it but the wheat field is what brings them in LOL He ended up calling us back a few weeks later and told us we could have just the CRP but we turned it down. Sorry for the rant I just wish some people could figure out that huntable acres and non huntable acres don't bring the same $$$ Of course the way the property is layed out can make a difference as well.
