[QUOTE="AllOut, post: 1869226, member: 12099"] To me it really has nothing to do with the total amount dollar wise. Honestly it comes down to priorities and your money. Some people don't want to spend $5k a year to hunt if they have the money to blow or not, which is fine. Hunting obviously isn't a big priority in their life. Some guys don't make good money but they scavenge and save all year to come up with the money to get what they want (I fall into this class), but huntin is a big part of their life. I have also been paying to lease for a while, before or right when it seem to been getting popular. My only grip is this... As hunters we lease hunting rights and typically hunting rights only. Farmers also lease lands just as we do, some times for farming rights only. Now I don't know any farmer who is going to pay "the going rate" per acre on a farm 300 acres when only 20 acres is tillable. But as hunter we are expected to pay "the going rate" per acre for the whole 300 when only 20 acres is huntable. Now most land owners would understand the farmer saying well I can only plant 20 acres but it seems like either they don't get the idea that hunting falls under the same concept or they don't care.
