100-125.00 dollars a day to dove hunt. Man prices have really soared.

I'm gonna keep the shotgun in the safe at this point.

I do have good memories, though.

Carry on.

Come on down to my lease after opening weekend!

quit whining and pony up, memories !!!

When I lived in TX I had access to some awesome dove hunting property. A farm right outside of Thrall known as the Stiles Farm that A&M used for research. We hunted down by two huge ponds surrounded my corn and grain sorghum fields. We had absolutely phenomenal hunts every single time we went out there. I definitely miss that place.

Go get you a season lease Shane, I can send you in the right direction

The few day leases I have ever been on had way too many hunters on too few acres. I don't want to ever do that again. I have a place or two where I can hunt for free. There may not be a million birds, but we enjoy the outing very much.

Brownsville will be fun this year

This guy on the fishing forum is advertising $30 a day. Might be one of those get what you pay for deals. Or might be a super bargain.

Can be expensive getting the fields into shape, mowing, discing and fertilizer and such. Have a Dozer guy here now cleaning things up around some fields. My fields are used for Sunflowers and Dove hunting only. I charge $75 a day per person but will probably go up to $100 in a couple of years.

Paying that high of price would take all the fun out of it for me

Too high for me.

Why pay $50-75 for a field with no Birds? Hunted Stompy's place last few years....never seen so many birds in one place! When you find a good place to hunt, it's worth the money! I only get a few days each year so I'll pay the price for a quality hunt every year.

$75-$100 seems to be the going rate. I don't have to worry about it but if I didn't have a place to go I'd pay that in a heart beat! At least for a few days during the season.

I charge 50.00 a day. I'm in Coleman i can squeeze you in on opening day only. I have plenty of sunflowers and water.

really not a bad price for a quality hunt, depending on what youre looking to do. a very good quality duck hunt now will be 225ish-how ever much you want to spend for MAYBE 6 birds. MOST of the time you get what you pay for, but unfortunately there are a few bad apples out there in the guiding/day hunting world.

Brownsville is good EVERY year. Wish it wasn't so far from DFW.....

What is the contact information for Stompy's place?

I paid $300 for a season lease closer to home so me and my boy have a place to hang out before the rut starts. We don't want to disturb our deer this year.

Just so y'all know, I limit the number of hunters every weekend so as not to crowd fields. Right now I'm booked the first 3 weekends.

We have private season dove leases starting at $200/gun. That's about $2/day, I'm sure this will fit some of your budgets.

There's places that can be had for a lot cheaper. You might have to travel for them some. the $48 texas annual public hunting permit has a lot of property on it for $48 bucks. not all of them are good and not all of them are close to town. naturally the ones closer will see more pressure. I've hunted a lot of property in the south zone though on the public permit that were good dove shoots. shot easy limits. you had to travel and make a weekend out of it, just makes it more of an adventure.

whoever said above too that good property management costs money is right. whether its for dove or deer either one if you're going to put the money and effort into the property to do it right and then sell some hunts....you can't just give them away. its an experience you pay for.

$1000 for the dog. Hundreds of hours in training. Dog food is $50 a bag. A few days a year in a good field watching her work would be a deal for $100 a day but I feel the same way. For dove, it's tough to pay. But I would have to call Stompy for a great deal there. If I didn't have land of my own I could hunt that is.

Sniper where in btown do you go im just up the rd by mcallen and elsa

I have 1200 acres of corn and milo in frost. I change 75 a day, or a 100 for a weekend. Also have season passes for 250 or 2 for 425 and kids 16 and under hunt free. I limit the number of people I have so its never over crowded. If interested give me a call at 903 641 9640

Is it usually a daily fee or do some places charge a flat rate for the whole season?
