RE: How much is too much?
ORIGINAL: Who
I dont mean to paint such a bleak photo of west texas but where there is no water its bad. Our problem is that there is good water but its so deep that it cost $$$$$$$$ to pump it. The rancher will not do it and does not have any windmills. So we depend and wait for rain. We have waited for a while! Rains come and we get just a little shower but thats it. OR we get a flood. Both do little good.
The 2001 season I had to drive 3 hrs out and back to hunt. This caused some problems. The cost jumped from 500/person to 675/person and cut out the lake. We would be responcible for the whole lease but would have fishermen coming in during the season and that was not good.
I found this lease last year but it turns out to just be a mule deer lease. Nothing else. Price 650/person x 5 people. One hr from home. This is better time and allows me more time to hunt, but mule deer season is one month[:@] and no does. I would love to find another lease that offered more and was within 1-2 hrs from home. Untill then I guess I make due with what I have.
Take care,
Rick

Like I said before, I own my own land and there is LOTS of public land around me so I' m one of the lucky ones. I quess if I had to pay for a lease to hunt, it would depend on the finances.

RE: How much is too much?
When I started this thread I thought it would be a simple question to answer. Instide I think it would be simpler to pull teeth from some of you. LOLI give up.[X(]
I think my next question will be on somthing simple like" global warming" or " Who shot J.F.K. and why?" lol
