No these are big leases. It might be 15K acres with a multimillion dollar houses, barns, etc just for the hunting.People that buy up good agricultural ground and then take it as a tax write off because they aren't farming it? But they bait deer and stock feral hogs and invite their urban buddies and put up buildings that no agriculturalist can afford when they want to get rid of their property.
If you have have the right kind of country you can generate some pretty good revenue off hunting alone.
They estimate a quail hunter will spend $80/ ac hunting quail. That's a couple months out if the year, generally they try to take 3 birds per covey, and will fo a survey for total birds to take off annually.
There is a big difference between people who pay to day hunt high fences and these guys.
