I know nothing about it just thought I would pass along for the greater good!

lease


good luck

WOW! 14k for 320 acres!

Let's see $14,000 divided by 320 is $43.75 per acre.

Looking for four responsible and respectful hunters for year round lease. Game management in place. Whitetail, turkey, quail, some hogs. Two hours from both San Antonio and Austin. $3,500 per gun for a total of $14,000 for the year lease. Family members welcome but no guest hunting. Children of hunters under the age of 16 may hunt under parent's tag. Limit 1 trophy per hunter per season. Fill doe tags and cull bucks for game management.

Camp includes septic, electricity and water. Ranch is brushy and hilly, sloping down to the river.

Property is on the San Saba River. River access is included.

That's probably worth more than the hunting rights to them.

Except that the San Saba is dry half the year and low flow or no-flow the other half. Last I checked anyway.

Seems really high, was just saying that maybe they were placing a lot of value on the river frontage. Had no idea it didn't have much flow. Is that most years or just since the drought?

That's nothing.....here's one for $100 an acre....45 acres and TWO guns

HuntingTexas, I agree that access to any major river in this state commands a premium for a lease. You're very right, that generally that is the case. The San Saba is in major crisis since 2013.

Drought, unregulated groundwater pumping in neighboring counties taking water out of the aquifer before it reaches the springs that feed the river, excessive flow diversion by downstream irrigators, tributary diversion by private landowners, increased real estate development and consumption downstream in the Austin Lake Chain; just poor water management practices and lack of regulation and conservation planning in general have negatively Impacted the river.

I bet the picture in that ad was immediately post flash flood water level.

I'm no master of the English language, but this poor ol boy can't spell for shite.

& the lease is only Sept - Jan. If he somehow manages to lease the place, it will be a new low for Texas hunting.
