Is it usually a daily fee or do some places charge a flat rate for the whole season? Most places will usually offer both

If guys are looking to hunt out west I have a place in haskell, it's very good. IL only lease to a small group of guys like 5 and under for a weekend or day,just your group so you have the place to yourself. There's another guy in the classifieds who has places in haskell as well for guys looking to hunt out west if stompy is booked also.

I charge 50.00 a day. I'm in Coleman i can squeeze you in on opening day only. I have plenty of sunflowers and water. Coleman was great in 2014- terrible last year- Foard county and further west is the bomb. Market dictates price in everything.

Compared to all those other expenses associated with hunting/fishing $100 doesn't really seem to bad to me. I can't even walk out of Academy with less than $100 of hunting/fishing junk that I didn't need to begin with.

I've got three 40 acre fields just west of Denton. $175 per gun - I limit hunters to a maximum of 6 per acre. Each field produced a limit last year on opening weekend. Not bad - one of the hunters even managed two birds by himself - had to fight two other hunters for the second bird though. Thick outer wear and doubled up shooting glasses recommended.

Well that sounds like a totally stupid amount of people per acre.!!! Hope that was a mistake!!!

An acre is 43,560 sq ft. With 6 hunters, that's 7260 sq ft per hunter. That's roughly an 85' square.

My post was obviously a joke. Unfortunately I learned the hard way that it is not too far from reality. I sat in a field briefly last year on opening morning that had at least 6 hunters per acre. After getting sprayed a few times, we headed back to the car. While we were driving off, the game warden showed up. We sat around and watched for a while. Not only was the field way over leased, the guy doing the leasing did not have permisssion from the landowner. The whole thing was a very dangerous scam.
