I'll give you $30 an acre.

but, I only want the 5 acres around your blind, yeah that sounds about right. you can keep the rest of it.

Leasing the N. Delta....that should be a neat trick :lol:



If you remove the land thats been leased and established as hunting clubs then remove the state and federal lands... It would not be that hard to lease Desoto and Tunica counties. I think My backyard is the only land in desoto that has water and records that is still unleased.

we pay 22.50 acre in NW MS on 6500 acres. If you put that into what you can hunt we pay about 1000.00 acre.

$22.50 times 6500 acres is $146,250. You must be rich. :lol:

lease

I would be more interested in what it cost per duck at your lease. Now that would really be embarrassing!

We had a lease near Reydell, AR about 5 years ago that mid way through the season we were in it to the tune of $1,000 per duck. We finished the season with a little more respectable numbers, but we didn't re-lease it the next season. One thing I have learned is that you are most of the time better off by going with reputable outfitter versus leasing a marginal place unless you plan on hunting it a bunch of days during the season. The are a lot more pit falls when leasing with a group of hunters such as, being there to control the water level, re-aranging deke spreads, keeping trespassers out, baby sitting newbees, constant bickering. With an outfitter you pay as you go and leave all the worries after the hunt is over.

You are right, Don Miller, about a guided hunt.

We had an inexpensive ( less than$2500) lease last year that produced 0 ducks. The geese and ducks used it for about a 3 day period when no members where around and that was it.

The math per duck in some cases is just ugly. :shock: $62.50/ per duck in one case. Take into account gas, license, time away from home/work/kids/ hours put in working on "stuff"....Easily $100 / duck +.

But let's not look at it like that.. :D
