Even at $15 an acre, you're barely over $1000. Mule deer on that small a place gonna be tough.

Mesquite trees some brush and CRP but out here they come out to the feeder quite often strange for mule deer but they do

Being a 9 day season up there I'd say $2-3k. Value is what someone is willing to pay though. That land has the potential for some giants, but 70 acres is just a fraction of a mature muledeer's home range. You might have a booner on your land one day, and he could literally be 4 miles away the next day. I hunt just south of that in Gaines county on a section of land. Each year it's just a crap shoot as to how many (or any) deer we see. I've done everything I can think of to keep them on our land. But mulies don't adhere to much of a pattern. Two years ago we kiled a buck that was pushing 170", and saw dozens of other deer. Last year I saw one forkhorn in 6 days of hunting. The deer just weren't on our property.

If be interested but not for anything like 3k

70 acres? Not much. You can shoot clear across it. One hunter makes one wrong move and they are blown out. I have grown up hunting and helping on a big place in Gaines county. Even with 10,000+ acres of literally the best land in that county its tough. Try to lease the land around you. Then sublease. You may get someone to bite at 70 acres but not long term unless it's an incredible place.

It would only be 1 hunter or like a father and son and I have only ever see one hunter on the naiboring land and that was last year

Put some feed and cameras out.
If you have a good one coming in price him.
Pricing this way would make much more money than a regular lease rate.

About 150 yards from blind to feeder

I'm thinking this scenario of maybe 2 family members leasing it. Probably in the range of 1200- maybe 2000 $. Considering its only 70 acre and a 9 day season. Lot depends on size of neighbors places and what they're doing farming, CRP,or brush and cover on their places around yours.

Standing irrigation pivot on the CRP part
