I went on a little scouting trip last weekend and was wondering about this. Our lease has 6 members and is 17,341 acres total. We have 18 feeders/stands set up. I was scouting from some of the bluffs all weekend and saw some nice bucks that we’ve never seen on camera, so we started talking about changing some of our sets.
The lease I was on before was right at 800 in the piney woods and we did fine with two guys and 5 sets
Anyway, how many acres do y’all hunt?

1,100 in Montague. 6 hunters but only 4 of us deer hunt. Have 8 feeders. I normally hunt one more than most but try to hit the rest depending on wind. I will say we hardly see big deer at the feeders. Almost all bucks are not shot at a feeder and we only take 1 to 3 a year. Not seeing anything mature on camera at all. Lots of young little bucks and plenty of does.

842 acres, 6 feeders and blinds. Just me most of the time, but our 2 son in laws hunt a couple of times a year. I've one more year before I can start taking our 2 grandsons. They do like hanging out and helping with the sausage in the smoke house.
I Feed Indian Corn. The deer love it and all the colors make them stay at the feeder longer.

10,000 acres high fence (in other words -"a pen" ). No protein, just 12 sets with seasonal corn. 10 hunter spots. A dozen feeders is enough work for, basically, 4 men that live 5 hours away. 18? Ufda!

320 acres and 3 hunters.
We don't hunt by we all get to fill our tags or we all get a buck ets. We do surveys and pick what we want taken, means a lot of times you may go a year or 3 without shooting a good buck.

300 acres. If you could flatten it out it would be 600. 2 hunters. 3k acres around us that gets little to no hunting pressure.
