Has anyone dealt with Rick the fellow representing the Oklahoma leases? Anyone have a lead on a good OK lease and if so may you please PM me.
Thanks

These were the available leases on the Pitchfork Ranch about 2 weeks ago. I contacted their lease manager, brookshodges@hotmail.com I posted these on another thread, but thought I would add to this one. I wish I could afford one of these spots :/

I apologize for the layout. It won't save in the format in which I wrote it.

Be careful of the places around Pandale. We leased one years back that was supposed to be 5k acres and was maybe 3k. Got on with some friends who looked at it. Shot out also. May not be the same area or that way now. Just FYI

I called this guy and he hung up on me. Here's what he told me:

Part of a 6300 plus acre ranch. No doe. 1 good buck 4 1/2 years or older, and one trash buck of 5 points or less - regardless of age. All the pigs you want too. Dove are ok. There are ponds with fish, but no fishing. There is electrical but no water. They rotate cows through so they won't be there consistently, maybe once a month. Closest towns are Lampasas and Watson.
Access is from Sept 1 through the end of the season, and you can come once a month on a weekend to tend to blinds and fill feeders and such.

When he hung up on me he ended any relationship we might have had. To heck with him. You make your own choice.

why do you think there are so many pastures open? Pitchfork has been legendary in the past - CWD?

Who wants to pay 8000 dollars for a deer lease that’s why .

Plenty of people. I’m curious why so many openings as well. I’ve hunted several very large ranches over the years and not all pastures are created equally. I’m guessing the quality for the open spots didn’t live up to the price tag.

My guess would be the terrible drought had a big effect on population. I know we lost some deer, but a lot of the truly wild areas of Dickens and King County lost a lot more deer. Add in the price and travel time, and some of those pastures will take some time to recover.
