How many of you are looking for a new lease this year? Seems every year there are a ton of guys looking so there should be a ton of new leases out. What made you leave or why did you get kicked off?

I had oil companies come in and lease the land from underneath me twice this past year. I don't blame them. If I was getting paid millions of dollars for my property I wouldn't lease anymore either.
I wish to become immortal and then die.

I am in the market for a new lease. The family we leased from decided to try their hand at doing a high fence private hunting club, so they jacked the price up. They want a 5,000 a year membership fee, plus a day fee, and a trophy fee. I wish them luck and hope they do well, just not my style hunting.
Early to bed, early to rise, hunt all day and make up lies.

I'm looking for a good lease member if I can find the right guy. That's as tough as finding a lease.

Haven't been on a lease in 13 years, me and some buddies who have been on other leases are looking to see if we can find one for about 7 or 8 of us.

If anybody hears of a good guy that's management minded (looking for 4.5yr old bucks or older) let me know. Just need 1 guy that can tell the difference between a 3.5 and 4.5 yr old buck.

I'm looking for a new lease as well! 133+/- acres with 6 hunters, I think not!!! I've been on it off/on for 13yrs and my wife also wants me to get on another lease that is more management minded! I live to deer hunt and have very good hunting ethics, but I can't hunt around people who just shoot anything and everything!!! It gets real frustrating, real quick! I can only spend about $800 max for a lease so I'm kinda stuck like chuck I guess... I am thinking about 200 acres I found that hasn't been hunted hardly at all over the past 3 years and it's around $650, so I might snatch it up!!! I'd really like to be able to see some quality deer for a change or at least a legal buck, lol!!!

I want to keep the one I have, it's got potential, but I'm looking. If I can't find something for my whole group I'll settle for two spots on a good place. Gonna spend some cash and get a decent spot this time. I'm tired of "working" so hard at it and being disappointed. I don't mind the effort and investment, but I need a return.

I'm very happy with all 3 leases I'm on now (1 big, 2 small), but if the right opportunity came along, I might drop 1 or both of the small leases and get on a second big lease.
Silver spurs and gold tequila keep me hanging on. Pretty girls and old cantinas give me shelter from the storm.

I don't mind working my butt off or paying the $$, as long as there's a possibility of seeing good deer.

I'm always looking for leases, but they generally need to be bordering where we already hunt.
