I don't disagree with anything he wrote really.l, but really really wish all these weirdos would quit promoting public land hunting. Lol.
I grew up on leases in South Texas, and at one point my dad had three different leases in old Mexico just for our family and the smallest one was 6k acres. We quit Mexico after 5 years and came back to Texas again. Don't get me wrong I'd still have fun with the right deer lease but I get bored on any lease quickly. It's just not my style of hunting, I'm in it more for the chase and the hunt. I'm pushing 20 years now solely on public and don't see myself interested in leasing again until I'm 80 years old and can't hike or haul quarters.

The thrill he is speaking of isn't directly related to public, private, or leased land. It is about shot opportunity. If I saw ten 150pt bucks every time I sat than killing one wouldn't provide much excitement. Now if I sat for multiple seasons seeing no deer and then shot a 115 pt buck obviously that would be an epic thrill. You can apply this formula to about anything.
Bottle of nice whiskey once a year vs having that bottle once a week. Obviously the once a year bottle gonna taste way better. Paradox of choice/options.
