Lodging can be provided or a place to set up camp determined. Guide services and horses can be part of the agreement. More profits and higher landowner satisfaction generally are received when recreational services are provided. An advantage to the season-long system is that hunters take pride of possession on the property and help patrol it. Landowners also benefit since they know who is around.
Daily leases are simple to operate.
Usually only land and water resources, with no recreational services, are offered. The biggest disadvantage is having to process wildlife as a farm and ranch business and direct more people each day. Profits could be higher than for season-long leases. When one of the two systems or a combination is selected, landowners should provide quality experiences for and expect quality behaviors from hunters. Eliminate any surprises by developing a lease contract that outlines responsibilities of the seller and the buyer.
