Agreed on terms today on a 300 acre lease about 7 miles outside of Atoka. It is about 200 thick hardwoods and some cedars and about 100 acres open pasture which is perfect for me and our family. Best thing got it fo about $8 per acre. Saw tons of tracks all over it and 7 ponds. No signs of hogs either. Don’t know if there will be any monsters or not but exciting to be on a new place that is under 1.5 hours away from the house.
The different way I went about it was I put an ad in the local paper in the area I wanted to find a place to hunt rather than online. My wife made fun of me, telling me no one reads the paper any more. I told her the old men at the coffe joint still does that don’t want to get with the times, and those are the one who are likely to have land and don’t want or know how to advertise online. I have had several calls, but really no spam type calls. Sometimes you got to think outside the box.
BTW just got a call on a lease in Choctaw county for 160 acres, he wanted more, $2,500 for the place.
