On Target.....Sometimes
Having lived here for several years, I have noticed that practically everyone I associate with hunts on a lease which is a strange concept to me. Where I grew up (Western KY) no leases existed with anyone I knew and I often had free invitations to hunt more places than I could in a season - any season. I have a cousin who routinely asks complete strangers at their front door if he can hunt on their land and hardly ever gets told no. I have stated that people pay to hunt down here and gotten a lot of questions while home. Of course for the relatives that have not seen my pictures or visited, they envision we live in a shack out in the Basin I think because that's what TV portrays as we don't live in N.O.
Here I notice land appears to be no more or no less available but noticeably higher except in some areas. I also notice most people are hunting in Miss or AL not Louisiana eventhough we are the "Sportsman's State".
The one big difference I notice though is for whatever reason fewer people have interest in owning land. For me its due to working in the BR area but not wanting to drive far although my 5-10 plan is to find something affordable in MS somewhere down the road to frequent on the weekends.
What's your opinion?
