I have been wanting to buy place (ranchette) of my own for several years. It never seems to happen though. Pricing has gone though the roof.
Anyway I was looking at a place that kinda meets my criteria for cost and location. It is around 110 acres in a good area heavily brushed but it is hi fenced.
Thats not a lot of land to be hi fenced but it does give you an option for growing and protecting a herd of 10-20 deer. One question is whether you get bored on 110 acres? the other is that don't get to see a lot of deer? and then do the deer become pets?
I have not hunted a hundred acre place since I was a kid.
Yes I would rather have 300-500 acres but I can't afford it.
The other option is to remove the hi fence.
The issue there is, is that the place is only about 350 yard wide. If you put a stand in the middle, then what are the chances that an arrow hit deer will run off more than 175 yards?
I wouldn't want to be calling neighbors or jumping fences. is that too narrow?
My options would be to keep the fence, tear it down, or pass.
