Caught out in the fast paced world of hunting lease arbitrage. It happens.

I learned long ago you can't reason someone out of something they don't reason themselves into.

They keep well in the freezer until the next "oppurtunity" Send me a dozen bone-in Cowboy ribeyes and I'll throw you a lead on a little place I know of in east TX. Warning: LO is a little weird though-names his deer after green, bendy cartoon characters.

"money wasn't due yet or I would have written the check."
That's where your wheel left the road.
How I would have handled it if I had a middle man (I'll never have one because of folks who bribe middlemen BTW :-)) :
I would have asked him "What?.... You want me to hold a place on a promise, from someone you've never met??? I've got guys with cash in hand here, call your guy and get money to hold it, or I'm taking these guys' $."
Kind of surprised you expected someone to hold a place through prime leasing time for you without something other than a phone call to hold it.

Rancher has a point Typically, unless I'm joking around, I do have a point. Most of the time the point either makes someone uncomfortable, or it's at least from a perspective different enough to generate some lively debate. It's what they pay me for.

Kind of surprised you expected someone to hold a place through prime leasing time for you without something other than a phone call to hold it. "They" still had the lease. Current lease manager that was getting off hadn't told the owner he was getting off yet. As far as the owner knew, he was coming up to renew the lease. The lease manager was the one getting off, not the entire group. Guy I was talking too wanted to stay on the lease as a member. No one was holding the lease and a different group wasn't there to pay for it while they were waiting on me. As a side note, I was asked if I wanted the lease because of previous conversations, it wasn't a lease I found somewhere. Didn't feel like it was a "middle man", more of an introduction to the owner. Otherwise, I would say you hit the nail on the head

Or your friend on here was trying to lease it out from under his buds? No one was "holding" it?? Sounds like some folks thought they just lost a couple of hunters. Maybe the landowner was more savvy than the lease manager and your friend on here thought. Lotta variables to this. None of which a check probably wouldn't have "fixed" though.

Yep by here was "stuff" I didn't know about. Lease manager was getting off, not trying to get rid of the group. Guy I was talking to was looking for someone to be the new lease manager.
