I need some feedback and help. I am thinking of leasing my 1200 acre ranch for RV camping, hunting, trapping, fishing, and just plain ole family fun. I am looking for a discussion board, like this one, only for hunting. Thanks in advance for your help.

Best Wishes,
Roland Jackson

Roland, In your lease you may need to be specific about sub-leasing, and hunting by written permission only as well as the amount of allowed guests entitled by the lease. There are lots of hunters out there that have a real ethic and a few that have no conception of the word.

Be sure to talk to the lawyers on what insurance and liablilty will be. There is always some ambulance chasing lawyer out there ready to sue ya.

Roland, What do you have in mind? A year round lease or seasonal for hunting? What are you willing to provide and what will you Absolutely Not Tolerate.
Here in Central Texas the going rate...a ave rule of thumb.....is $1000/gun (deer/turkey,falldove, spring turkey lease), you provide a REC pole with a meter. This is not year round! If you have a old house, or shack good, set buck size limits, here nothin less than 6 points and 18 in rack or over 12 with 26 in racks, Kill all freeks and 2 yr old spikes get them out of the gene pool!. your area will need adjusting for the size requirements.
Are you willing to give up fishing rights on private tanks or stream/rivers on the property. We Do Not.
Are there Livestock on the property? will they be there during season , If a nimrod kills one...he just bought it at an above ave price.
If the hunters do not like the livestock and it is leases out for grazing they may opt to buy the grazing lease each year so there are no animals there at all. Write a contract that stipulates the terms you are dictating. Like if some one get hurt they are responsible, and that outdoor activits are dangerious. They are there at your pleasure. The first time one tells you how to operate your Farm/Ranch, RUN HIS A$$ OFF!!!
It is still your place and you are providing a place for them to enjoy the outdoors. There are still many more things to concidser but just not enough time and space to tell, But you get the picture I think. Hope this helps!
Later,
John A.

Thanks for your help. I am thinking of leasing my ranch to one (just 1) family for RV camping, hunting, fishing...sort of their little get away...personal camp grounds with no one around. I have lots of Deer, and birds for hunting. And a creek that flows thru the middle of the ranch. It would be a legal lease, with a contract covering land usage and so on. I would do a background check before leasing. I would have RV hookups and down the road, a small cabin as I get time to fix it up. So, this could be a vacation home for someone wanting to get away from the pressures of the city.

Just beware of the "outfitters" that give guided hunts. Guy here in Kansas screwed over several farmers when he didn't pay the second half of his lease, and caused lots of damage and problems by straying into neighbors who hadn't leased their land. Land owners got their names tossed around when asked "Who gave you permission to hunt here" when he knew he was on other people's property.
