What is a Hunting Lease?

A hunting lease is a legal agreement between a landowner and a hunter or group of hunters that grants the right to hunt on the landowner’s property for a specified period of time. Typically, a hunting lease is used to regulate access to private land for hunting and can help to ensure that the land is properly managed for wildlife conservation.

The lease agreement usually specifies the terms and conditions of the arrangement, such as the duration of the lease, the allowed hunting activities, the number of hunters permitted, and any restrictions or rules that must be followed while on the property. The landowner may also set specific requirements for the use of the land, such as the use of designated hunting areas, the use of certain types of hunting equipment, or the requirement to follow specific hunting practices.

In exchange for the use of the land for hunting purposes, the hunter or hunting group typically pays a fee to the landowner. The fee may be based on the size of the property, the number of hunters, and the type of hunting activities allowed. In some cases, the lease may also include provisions for the landowner to receive a percentage of any game harvested during the lease period.

Hunting leases are a common way for landowners to generate income from their property and for hunters to gain access to private land for hunting. It is important for both parties to understand and agree to the terms of the lease before entering into the agreement, in order to avoid any misunderstandings or conflicts during the lease period. We provide all of this up front.

Why should I lease my land?

Leasing land for hunting can provide recreational opportunities for hunters and their families, many landowners appreciate and grow to love the idea that they have shared their land with others and provided a space for people to bond and enjoy outdoor activities. Our landowners develop a high regard for our appreciative and respectful hunters and develop long lasting friendships with them. Private landowners in general are a major source of funding for wildlife conservation in the US. Hunters are also a significant source of funding for wildlife conservation in the US. Each year, hunters contribute an estimated 3 billion dollars to conservation efforts. Working together simply makes conservation efforts better for all Americans to enjoy our resources.
