Guys,
I'm curious about the cost and location for trophy low fence lease. Just to qualify what I consider a "trophy". Mature means at least 4 years old and 150+ class buck.
What type of leases produce these kind of bucks?
How many hunters per X acres? Protein feed a must? Feed year around? Etc...

Deerhunter, with a consistent chance to realistically harvest that class buck year-year, I'm going to throw out an avg. per gun price of $4,000-6,000 with an additional $2,000 in miscellaneous costs including protein feeding, etc..Again, I am basing this projection on having a chance to harvest a trophy year-year. You can get opportunities on lesser cost places but probably not year-year-year, IMO.

A 4 year old 150" deer is hard to come by, even on a more expensive lease. I think the above pricing is a about right for a ttrophy lease. But, most good leases are filled by word of mouth, so there are a few leases that produce big bucks and the prices are still below the average.
