losing places to hunt
It's not just coon hunters losing land to leased property, it's other deer hunters who are not wealthy losing out as well. I grew up hunting squirrels and deer, I got into this hound thing later in life. I watched all of the timber companies in Western PA lease out their land to private clubs, and lost pretty much everywhere I could go hunt deer and squirrel except public land. When the opportunity came to move to NC I tried to find a place to live with the most public land as possible to guarantee my sons would be able to hunt. I'm not a wealthy man, and since I don't waste money on lottery tickets I will never be one, but I'll have hounds as long as the Lord is willing. That being said, I could probably give the coons on game lands here names because we probably run the same 5 coons over and over again all season. My 3rd grade son asked me last night when we could go on a night hunt again, that to me is more rewarding than any set of antlers.
