I think leasing is killing hunting for a lot of people. Where I hunt guys with really deep pockets have been buying up all the land to lease it out. What really pisses me off is that you can call a land owner in KS and the asshole lives in New York. They are just out for a profit and the guys who cant afford to lease the land from them are going to quit hunting or figure out some other way to go.
Leasing is one of the leading reasons people are quiting hunting. All of the truly great spots are taken by SO-CALLED guides and then they only use a small percentage of the grounds so it's like shooting on a refuge. Notice I said shooting, not hunting. Leases are outta control border to border/coast to coast. Leasing sucks and shooters with money are ruining it for the majority of real sportmen/women.
Big hunting groups paying high price is rampant here in Missouri. I've lost several awesome pieces of ground because of this, I don't blame farmers or landowners for trying to make some money off their land, I just can't compete financially.
Agreed with silsbyj and + 1 for you sir!!!
