A friends 1700 ac 7 gun deer lease went to $1850/gun this yr
and is going to $2000/gun in two years. They are in the Sonora, TX area and have literally hundreds if not thousands of deer. That includes on Axis doe per gun in addition to Five whitetail (no more that two bucks). When you drive the roads at night they are everywhere. But still... Is that what good leases are going for out there? I quit shooting deer some time back, and if I wanted to I would shoot one on the Rocking D. It's just sticker shock to even think of that price level.
In addition my friend puts out about 4500 pounds of corn a year and probably 2000 pounds of protein. Holy Moly that's expensive deer meat.
